Apple Sends Out Media Invites for WWDC Keynote on June 3

[lkrupp]

A Mac Pro that everyone will be happy with? More chance of finding unicorn poop...

Whatever the Mac Pro turns out to be rest assured that as the sun rises in the East and sets in the West the MacRumors forums will be ablaze with rage and anger, predictions of doom, woulda-coulda-shoulda screeds. It will be very entertaining, that’s for sure.

I hope there’s no new iOS update this year. iOS 12 has been fine for me and theres no need to change it

So who would be forcing you to upgrade if there is?

 

[JessWinter]

So excited! I swear, these invites mean dark mode. They have to.

 

[Jemorama]

My guess at the unicorn: user upgradable hardware

 

[magicschoolbus]

Looks like they’re sending out different invites.

If the calculator one in the last one indicates the calculator is finally on the iPad, I will lose my mind.

Remember these days?



Whoops. I meant these days:

 

[iAVERY]

Well you’re about to be disappointed

“iOS 13, where the customer is the beta for at least 3 months, we think you are going to love it. Our best iOS release ever.”

 

[MisterSavage]

I love this time of year. Can't wait to watch it.

 

[sofila]

Anyone can explain why it took so long for Apple or Google to implement dark mode option. Is there any technical reason behind this time-frame?

 

[ghostface147]

Well I’ll be at disneyworld probably waiting in line for something, so I guess I’ll be using the macrumors feed.

Come on Mac Pro

Mac Pro 2013 died yesterday , had to buy a Mac Mini today to hold me... I can almost guarantee the Mac Pro will come out in 11 days, it just the way it works. Heres hoping for something!

 

[Ivan0310]

What would the unicorn be? The Mac Pro?

The PowerBook G5.

 

[klatox]

Redesigned iMacs???? Kidding, kidding

 

[otternonsense]

Let’s see the rain of angry comments on Emojis and Animojis and how Tim (Apple) is ruining their beloved company.
Having said that, that’s a cute unicorn.

He ruined our favourite products. The company as a whole seems to be doing well.

 

[iapplelove]

I will find out what iOS 13 brings in September right before I update.

I’ve lost the love..

 

[JGIGS]

Does the exploding Unicorn head remind anyone else of Kingsman?

Bojack Horseman with a horn for me.

Thanks for taking one for the team. I'll give you full credit if Apple surprises us with the way overdue revamped Mac Pro.

Thing is @Pelea has a point... If a user decides to not upgrade they'll miss out on security updates and bug fixes. Unlike macOS, Apple doesn't provide updates for its previous (major) iOS releases. If you stick with iOS 12 you risk your device being vulnerable to exploits.

10 years ago at WWDC ‘09, the entire MacBook lineup got better and less expensive at the same time. Will history repeat itself on June 3?

I remember when they used to tout their pricing against similarly equipped Windows machines. They were of the mindset that quality could be delivered, albeit on smaller margins. Now look what happens when a bean counter is steering the ship.

 

[Dave-Z]

My expectations of Apple are pretty low. I'll watch the keynote but I'm not expecting anything major. Frankly, I think they're whole focus is pushing people toward recurring revenue streams (i.e. services) and I expect all their OS releases will be geared toward that type of integration, which I could easily do without.

 

[JGIGS]

A dark mode for sure would be a nice change. I'd like a cleaner springboard with better customization. At the very least get rid of top left auto arrange of icons.

Biggest annoyance is I can't figure out a way to have all my notifications to group in just one app grouping. They always seems to get split up based on the times they came in which is super annoying. Just keep them sorted in one group and within that stack by date and time.

Anyway plenty of things that still could be improved.

 

[jsalda]

Open up WatchOS so we can have custom faces. I would happily pay $0.99 for a different face. I probably would even purchase a dev account so I could design my own.

Let’s see the rain of angry comments on Emojis and Animojis and how Tim (Apple) is ruining their beloved company.

Yah, but really your comment is just as cliche and expected as those comments.

Having said that I think Apple pushes emojis too much. For me they were entertaining to do for the first couple of days, but don’t really demand their own stage time for a wwdc. I do not think Tim is ruining the company though. I think he just runs it differently than Steve .

 

[Wide opeN]

While Dark Mode will be welcomed, and is nice; if as least one of these three features isn't added iOS 13 will be a disappointment for me.

AOD (we have OLED, makes no sense not to be an option)
Split Screen (been on ipad now for at least two iOS releases)
PIP (if the NFL Network app can do it, I know Apple can)

Again, iOS 13 will be a large failure if one of these 3 isn't added as far as I'm concerned.

Game of Thrones, Endgame and now WWDC to add to this year’s disappointments Lol.

I try to enjoy everything though. ☺️

...GoT I get, but Endgame...what more did you want. Sure it had some plotholes but man it was a fun movie.

That sucks, and I don't think you'll be so lucky, if it came out then you could return within the 2 week window, but I think it'll be announced in 11 days, shipping in December :/

I do hope I'm wrong though
