I like a lot of the new features announced.

  • SOS on AppleWatch
  • I'm glad they brought back locations to Photos
  • The more intelligent moments in Photos is also really cool, plus the ability to automatically create a video (ala iMovie Trailers)
  • It's great to finally be able to have Skype deeply integrated into the OS
  • Text transcriptions of voicemail
  • The ability to have apps integrate with the caller ID and see what might be spam, and not, etc
  • I actually think the messages additions are really nice and fun. I'll definitely be using them with my family. (I'm 26, not 12)
  • The ability to store files off in the cloud to save on storage space is awesome! To have that deeply integrated with the OS is amazing to say the least.

I mean the list goes on. I was really, really pleased with the announcements made. But it seems that I'm in the minority.
Same here. I loved it! Very cool new features being added.

I swear to god - its a ****** development conference. Software not hardware.

Have you heard that expectation is the root of all heartache?

Rumours were that the MBP would be out. Then at the last minute, it's not. Maybe that's partially my fault for buying into the analysts, but at the same time those rumours don't come from nothing.

I swear to god, a ********* development conference does not mean just software. Just google past WWDC and see the hardware released....significant Apple hardware have been released .

Next do the maths how outdated the MacBook pros and Mac pros are....cross reference it from last WWDC where MacBook pros and Mac pros have been launched and the light bulb will go on ;)
 
Stop moaning - it was fairly decent with some cringeworthy parts. The list of developer features not mentioned is pretty huge.

Apparently the one I watched showed how Siri will actually start becoming useful because Apple finally decided to open it up to Devs. Same for most of their stock apps. Something MR members have been complaining about endlessly. Now it's here and you all are still trying to outdo others with nose in the air complaints.

Which was like 10 min out of 2 hours.

No new hardware? Apple has lost their minds.
As others mentioned, this was an event for developers, not for consumers. So I understood Apple's focus on software. I think I had gotten spoiled by hardware announcements during this event, but WWDC wasn't really the right place for that. Apple seems to be turning to "special events" at various venues to announce products, and they no longer seem tied to any specific schedule.

I was surprised at some flubs. The keynotes are usually meticulously rehearsed events. But Eddie Cue seemed to treat his time on stage as an afterthought. Some of the new presenters were pretty good. But Craig is the best presenter Apple currently has, IMO.

I'm not in the prime demographic anymore. :( Over 65 and retired. While I am impressed with what Apple is doing, I honestly don't think I am interested in more than about 10% of what I saw today, if that. I can only be thankful that the updates will be free cause I saw NOTHING worth spending money for.
Old people buy the most Apple stuff. Why do you think they are desperately trying to attract a younger segment with all these lame things you find frivolous? They are heavily propped up by the boomers. I predict we will see a lot of revenue loss as the boomers start dying in larger and larger numbers.

Yes it does - hardware is rarely introduced at WWDC. It is not a consumer event but aimed at developers. They are exceptions to the rule.

Yes - lots of api based stuff further down the list. Are you a developer?

I was personally hoping for some hardware announcements. I understand that software and dev updates are the focus - in fact, I thought Swift Playgrounds was really nice - but I don't remember a previous WWDC without at least some hardware updates. Of course, the key to happiness is low expectations. Especially in regards to Apple hardware announcements. :)

Like I said look since 2006 to present , and see how much hardware was lunched .

Now do it for 2011 onwards...

Are you sure it's an exception ?

There's far more to WWDC then just this keynote. There's hundreds of courses, experts you can ask questions, and countless resources that are only available to you when you go to this conference.

They did not only pay for this keynote. They're there for all the other stuff.

Lol. Danish. Hmm

I have a question for the techical staff at WWDC: Where are the MacBooks?

It was way longer than that. But if Apple just came out and said " hey we are creating APIs for our most used stack iOS app.... That alone should've been enough to excite you. Devs hold a huge reason why iOS is so popular. Now they have access to core apps like Siri...... Great times are ahead my friend.

I think you just proved a lot of the posters' points with this - there is a lot of good stuff in here that could have been focused on instead of emojii and fireworks in your messages....
 
I mean the list goes on. I was really, really pleased with the announcements made. But it seems that I'm in the minority.

Na, I think all the changes are welcome IF there are stability fixes involved too. I will trade all those features to have a non-buggy iPhone and Mac.

It's a developer's conference! What did you expect?
Clearly not developer stuff. Talking about children software for more than 45 minutes was ridiculous or listening to a song that had nothing to do with developers was also extremely aggravating. Glad they had a 9 year old whose parents have thousands, but I don't see why developers had to waste 45 minutes because of it. "Don't you wish you had this when you were learning..." f* no. I learned development because I was interested and read books and tried many languages until I found out what i loved. I didn't need a dumbed down game to spoon feed me the information.

Music also had nothing to do with devs. Lots of things in WWDC have nothing to do with devs. Just saying.

New macbook pros have EVERYTHING to do with developers. We do use hardware you know...

Many people on MacRumors lose perspective. This is a developer conference. That's it. Opening up Siri, Messages, and Maps to developers is pretty frigging huge.

It is huge, I agree. But I also expect a developer conference not to waste everyone's time on crap that has nothing to do with development and/or don't even have SDKs.

Most of the keynote was great though. Excited about insta-apps in watch. Also, excited about the upcoming sessions to go into more detail on some of this stuff.
