WWDC 2018 starts on Monday, June 4, and as with previous years, Apple is kicking off the conference with a keynote on the first day, offering a look at some upcoming products and providing the first details on new operating systems.

Rumors have suggested we could potentially see new iPad Pro models and perhaps a new iPhone SE, and several Macs are due for a refresh, including the MacBook Pro, iMac, and 12-inch MacBook. We're also expecting a first-look at next-generation versions of macOS, iOS, and tvOS.

Watch the Keynote on Mac, iPhone or iPad

You can watch the WWDC keynote live on any Mac, iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using Apple's native Safari browser. Bear in mind, to meet the stream's requirements, iOS devices must be running iOS 10 or later, while Macs need to be running macOS Sierra 10.12 or later.

Launch Safari from your chosen device and follow this link to the WWDC18 Livestream.

Watch the Keynote on Apple TV

You can watch the WWDC keynote live on an Apple TV. Fourth and fifth-generation Apple TV owners will need to download the Apple Events app from the tvOS App Store (see the steps below). Owners of earlier generation devices should see the Apple Events button automatically appear in their Home screen menu. (Second-generation Apple TV or later can also AirPlay the stream from another Apple device running Safari, as described above.)
  1. Open the App Store from the Home screen.
    Scroll down to the News category and select Apple Events. Alternatively, input "Apple Events" into the Search field and select it from the results.
    Click the Get button to download the app.

    Wait for the button to change to Open, and click it again. Alternatively, select the Apple Events app on your Home screen.

The app will tell you to tune in at your local time on June 4 to watch the event live (18:00 BST in our example), so clicking on the WWDC18 keynote button won't do much until then. Meantime, you do have the option to watch the previous three Apple Events while you wait, including last year's WWDC keynote.

Watch the Keynote on a Windows PC

If you don't have an Apple device handy, you can still watch the WWDC18 keynote on a PC running Windows 10. Open Microsoft Edge browser and follow this link to the WWDC18 Livestream.

While Apple offers no guarantees, other platforms may also be able to access the WWDC18 livestream using recent versions of Chrome or Firefox (MSE, H.264, and AAC codecs/extensions must be installed).

Exciting event is coming for all Apple lovers as myself. So looking forward to it.
 
Also handy to have a pillow in front of you so when you doze off you don't hit your head on the desk. Seriously, can't remember the last interesting one -- maybe if you are a developer, it will start the creative wheels turning, but as a tech observer and Apple consumer, I've stopped wasting my time. I'm better off reading the highlights and then someone puts together a "Keynote in 5 min" video sans all the "Apple has sold more watches than the sum of all watches since pre-history" blah, blah, and the tedious Phil Schiller and 3rd party mono-tone demos.

For me, it's that first 5-10 minute of Tim monologuing about how 'inspirational' technology is and how important it is in the world. I can't usually make it through that part before turning off and waiting till it's over to watch a catch up video.

If the new Macbook Pro still has the new butterfly keyboard it will be a major disappointment. I will be looking for another alternative for my work.

It will likely be the "newer" butterfly keyboard since the "new" keyboard is dud from both a tech and usability perspective. But, like manual transmissions, I think the old fashioned keyboards with actual feel to them are done. The only reason the Butterfly exists is because manufacturers, not just Apple, insist on making laptops ever slimmer taking functionality with it. It's not just Apple with sloppy, numb, shallow keyboards these days.

Didn't they patent a version of their keyboard that was dust resistant a while back. They'll probably update the keyboard with resistances to try and fix the problems.

Please Apple, give me an excuse to buy a 12.9” iPad Pro.. I have to convince my wife it’s worth that price tag.
Click to expand...

If your wife is not into tech then you already know she doesn't understand the need for any size iPad Pro. And as an adoring iPad Pro 12.9 owner, sorry, but it's hella expensive and NOT worth the price tag unless you legitimately use it for work. I wanted it, did not need it for work. Justifying it is pointless when you consider everything else that same money buys. So if you want one then you either have to find something extravagant she wants to "buy" her off, or buy it and take the risk of sleeping on the sofa for days, weeks. BUT the good thing is that if you do end up on the sofa, you'll have your 12.9 iPad to play with. Just don't fool around with the pron sites on it when you are in purgatory or your visit to sofa land could be much longer. Heh.

I don't get bored because as a tech enthusiast I look at prefer the details more than I do the MTV attention span wow announcements everyone seems to expect at every event these days.

I just want to see an iPhone X style redesign for the iPad Pro models.

This would be great as long as there is no notch. I don’t mind the notch very much on my X but on iPad it would be annoying since I use it in landscape often. Just needs a very thin top and bottom bezel and hardly anything on the sides.

I see what you did there... :D

Just hoping for the explanation as to why they were made that way.

The planet is about 25k miles around. With 24 hours in a day that would be over 1000 miles of day/night creeping across the globe per hour—if you’re near the equator. I think this would be slower the further away from the equator you are. I’m in Australia where most of our population operate between with a half hour difference, though I’ve read about quarter hour zones, which I assume reflects a small size of that region.

That said, I’m sure money is the actual reason!
 
I know we don’t isually get hardware, but I’m feeling the need for a new Mac mini. My late 2012 2.3 i7 is showing it’s age. Dont know weather the HDD is on its way out or the thermal paste has dried out. It’s way slower than it used to be, even startup takes forever
