Apple’s WWDC 2024 event is set to kick off in a few days and the company has now shared additional details about its annual Worldwide Developers Conference, including the keynote event time as well as the full schedule for the event.

The company will host 50 Distinguished Winners of the annual Swift Student Challenge for three days at Apple Park. These winners will be part of special activities during the week of WWDC 2024, according to the firm.

Apple is also expected to reveal the winners of is annual Apple Design Awards at WWDC 2024. This year’s finalists have been announced on the Apple Developer website and app, and Apple says it will announce the winners soon.

WWDC 2024 What to Expect

At WWDC 2024, Apple is expected to announce details of its upcoming operating system updates — iOS 18, iPadOS 18. macOS 15, watchOS 11, tvOS 18, and visionOS 2. Recent reports suggest that Apple is working on several improvements to its operating system including the iOS user interface, in terms of customisation.

The company is also expected to introduce new AI features on its operating systems, while Siri might be updated with new capabilities. According to reports. the company was in in talks with OpenAI and Google to integrate chatbot features on iOS 18, which is said to offer both on-device and cloud-based AI functionality.

There’s currently no word on plans to launch new hardware at WWDC 2024, and the company recently launched new iPad Pro and iPad Air models earlier this month, alongside the new Apple Pencil Pro. However, given Apple’s tendency to keep its plans under wraps until they are announced at its events, we’ll have to wait until the keynote event to find out.
