Live From WWDC 2018: Coverage of Apple's Keynote with iOS 12, macOS 10.14, and More

[eatrains]

I'd prefer no additions and have them explain all of the optimizations and clean up they did. After all, there is a room full of developers who could appreciate that.

You realize they have a week of sessions to explain things, right?

 

[fathergll]

walkie talkie? feature?

Stock just doubled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[kmichalec]

Nextel rides again...

 

[Feenician]

Apple have just made watching paint dry exciting what has been announced so far could have been announced in less then half the time. They are missing some of the important points like will macOS APFS support fusion drives. Most of this seems to be we are fixing the bugs in iOS 11, macOS 10.13.

They haven't even started talking about macOS yet. That's later.

 

[dannyyankou]

3rd party support for the Siri watch face, finally

 

[GizmoDVD]

Too many major apps disappeared from AW. What a waste. Maybe they can come back so third party will actually be useful?

 

[44267547]

The Memoji being the software.

I Believe you mean, “software feature”.

 

[MistrSynistr]

If the quality if OS 12 is significantly improved from iOS 11, then I can forgive the memoji and "big brother" nanny apps.

iOS 11 should of been good. lol. They have conditioned you to accept terrible so that "ok" is great.

 

[D.T.]

I'm turning this off and going to talk to my wife instead!

My wife is watching it with me, we’re having a beer, relaxing after a busy weekend

Stock just doubled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LIke....how? It's so manipulative tactic.

 

[Guy Clark]

I know, so was I. But I am continually disappointed in Apple these last few years.

I guess its because people that graduate from college these days with tech interest never mature more than about 12 years.

Remember Tim Cook's Apple never delivers what the consumer wants!

 

[Stingray454]

So, we've finally reached the future.

 

[AL1630]

The stock is starting to drop faster...

 

[quaresma]

Not sure why people get so up in arms about Animoji. If you don't like it, don't use it. Not a huge deal.

LOL you again. Ok we won't say a thing about Apple...

 

[magicschoolbus]

no dark mode still?

ONE MORE THING....

 

[kupkakez]

Ok I'm liking watchOS 5.

 

[redheeler]

So the only real iOS upgrade is the performance boost. Seriously, why are they wasting so much time and budget to create these useless animoji things and not try to create a decent Dark Mode for iOS like everyone's asking?? "Memoji"?!? What are they doing? I'm starting to lose hope for Apple once again...

Dark mode would be nice, but I'll take the performance and stability.

 

[Wowereit]

Web content on a tiny watch display, yay.

 

[keysofanxiety]

“You can even tap on that link”

*crickets chirp*

“Yes”

They are targeting the general public and children. They don't care about pro users.

 

[Nozuka]

watchOS seems pretty solid so far.

 

[EvilkeekS123]

I still can‘t get over the fact that it even got a live demo. So someone at apple hq thought it was a major feature and needed further explanation at a wwdc..

 

[jona2125]

I would say that the substantial speed improvements are pretty major....

I wouldn't call it substantial based on their following talk point that they now have the processor ramp to full power and coast down rather than the current method of ramping up gradually from idle. Launching something would definitely be faster that way regardless of their OS title.

 

[sracer]

You realize they have a week of sessions to explain things, right?

KeyNote, Developer KeyNote. Spend more than 30 seconds about performance improvements rather than the Stock App. Yeah, THAT really is important to developers.

 

[MrGimper]

Podcasts app for watch is going to make many on here happy

 

[Michael Goff]

If my eyes rolled any harder, I’d be blind.
