We're hosting a special all-day experience at Apple Park on June 6 to kick off WWDC22. Gather with others in the developer community to watch the keynote and State of the Union videos alongside Apple engineers and experts, explore the all-new Developer Center, and so much more. We can't wait to connect in person.

Apple says that it will be an all-day experience at ‌Apple Park‌, including the keynote and State of the Union. Developers will also be invited to explore the Developer Center, among other activities. Apple last year said that it was building a dedicated Developer Center on the ‌Apple Park‌ campus, though few details have been provided about it.

The ‌Apple Park‌ event is free, and all members of the Apple Developer Program and Apple Developer Enterprise Program can apply to attend. Invitations will be allocated through a random selection process and cannot be transferred.

Submissions will be accepted from Monday, May 9 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time through Wednesday, May 11 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time. Developers will be notified of their status by Thursday, May 12 at 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time.

Apple is testing finally returning to live keynotes. Although to be fair, I've loved the prerecorded ones. I wonder what goodies Apple has in store for those lucky few.
Hoping they go back to the live ones, personally! The prerecorded ones are slick, but they lack the weird spontaneity of the live ones. Who can forget the awkward laughter when they announced the price of the pro display stand?

Anyone is excited over ios 16?.
I lost hope of anything significant (Imessage (Who uses it outside in USA?)), focus mode, no up-next widget, watch widget that thinks that ALL the planet lives in Cupertino!, etc.) IOS 3 ios versions ago.

As they say: "I expect nothing and still Apple manages to disappoint me".

Am I the only one who thought "Hunger Games" upon seeing this graphic?
No. Was thinking the same think. 😄
Looking forward to what Swift can do in 2022!

So because nobody uses it outside of the US, apple should just stop with iMessage and stick with SMS then huh?
