Apple WWDC 2018 Keynote: What’s New?
Apple WWDC 2018 Keynote: What’s New?: Apple WWDC 2018 keynote just wrapped up in San Jose, California, and Apple CEO Tim Cook with his senior staff made this a software-focused keynote, with iOS 12, macOS 10.14, watchOS5 and tvOS 12 announcements.
A lot was on the line for Apple for WWDC 2018. Google wowed us with its Google IO keynote and groundbreaking demos last month. Apple software had a lot to answer for, including the many annoying iOS 11 problems.
For developers, WWDC offers a chance to get an idea of what they’ll be working with in 2018 so they can start planning. They can download the iOS 12 developer beta 1 right now.
For everyone else, it’s a glimpse at the interface refinements for current iPhones, iPads, Macs and Apple Watches, and exciting new hints ahead of the theorized iPhone 9 and iPhone XI.
Apple kicked off proceedings with a quick look at iOS 12 and its features for the first time at WWDC 2018, among other software sneak peeks.
iOS 12 – Performance is key
iOS 12 was due to see an intriguing home screen redesign and tweaks to core apps like Mail and Camera, according to several leaks, but that’s been shelved in favor of stability and performance improvements.
Apple is instead looking to make the iPhone faster and more responsive than it’s previously been. It’s doing that at WWDC, all the way back to the iPhone 5S.
It’s set to work with all the same devices that can already handle iOS 11. Apple says keyboards on the aging iPhone 6S Plus, for example, will fire up 50% faster than previously, with the camera ready to snap 70% faster, showing Apple isn’t giving up on older devices. App loading in general is now twice as fast with iOS 12.
On the one hand, iOS 12 sounds less exciting due to its security and performance focus. On the other hand, it needs that. iOS 11 problems like the awful-sounding ‘black dot’ bug were PR for Apple and an unpleasant experience for users.
