Apple's announcements today were spread across all four of its platforms: watchOS (Apple Watch), tvOS (Apple TV), OS X (now known as macOS), and iOS (iPhone/iPads).

iOS 10 is our biggest release yet, with incredible features in Messages and an all-new design for Maps, Photos, and Apple Music. With macOS Sierra, Siri makes its debut on your desktop and Apple Pay comes to the web. The latest watchOS offers easier navigation and a big boost in performance. And the updated tvOS brings expanded Siri searches.

Lets Start WWDC 2016 !!!

watchOS

watchOS 3, shipping this fall but available to developers today, packs a bunch of new tricks:

– Instant loading of apps, doing away with the sluggish launches people have complained about since day 1.

– “Scribble” allows you to reply to a message by sloppily writing with your fingertip.

– New faces (Including one just for physical activity that brings your steps taken, calories burned, etc to the front).

– Like to run one watch face while you work but another at night? You can now let multiple faces run at once and just swipe between them.

– A new “Dock” interface that lets you quickly jump between apps that are running.

– Better support for users in wheelchairs.

tvOS

AppleTV’s tvOS is picking up some new stuff, too:

– “Dark mode”, a darker theme for night time viewing (or if you just don’t like AppleTV’s crazy bright look).

– If you download a video app to your iPhone and that app has an AppleTV version, it’ll auto download to your AppleTV.

– Most major tv channels have their own AppleTV app and, until now, you’ve had to give each and every one the credentials to your cable account. That’s a lot of typing. “Single Sign On” handles that automatically now.

– You can now use Siri voice search to find content within third party apps, like YouTube.

- Your iPhone Is A Good AppleTV Remote Again. It replicates the remote’s touchpad, allowing you to navigate AppleTV’s UI. The accelerometer/gyroscope can be used as a game controller. You can use your iPhone’s keyboard to type on AppleTV again!

Developer preview launches today, and ships to everyone “this Fall”.

macOS Sierra

OS X Gets A Rebranding. Well, it wasn’t like the others. After 15 years as OS X, Apple’s Mac OS is now just.. macOS.

The first release of (the operating system now known as) macOS will be called macOS Sierra. Like pretty much everything Apple announced today, Sierra will ship this Fall.

- Auto Unlock When You're Near. Your Mac can automatically unlock when it detects you’re sitting in front of it with your iPhone or Apple watch.

- Copy/Paste Between All Of Your Devices. Copy something on your computer, and immediately paste it on your iPhone or iPad (or vice versa).

-Automatically free up hard drive space. macOS can free up storage by automatically backing up and removing local copies of files you haven’t used in a long time things like old iPhone backups, redundant Mail data, and your browsing cache.

- Want to watch Netflix but need to keep working? A new PIP mode lets you pop a Safari video out to a little chromeless box that can be dragged around without taking up any more screen space than it needs.

- As rumored for months and months, Siri is now a part of macOS. You can ask Siri basic stuff, like movie times or weather predictions. But you can also ask more complicated things — like “Show me files that Ken sent me, but just the ones I’ve tagged ‘draft".

iOS 10

It wouldn't be WWDC without a new major release of iOS. While WWDC often tends to focus mostly on new behind-the-scenes developer stuff that users don’t necessarily see directly, Craig Federighi called iOS 10 “the biggest iOS release for users ever".

- The New Lock Screen. 3D Touch support on notifications. You can do things like: Deep press on an iMessage to see more messages from that thread for context. TouchID has just gotten too damned fast. Nine times out of 10, a quick tap of the home button unlocks the whole phone. Now, if you just want to see your notifications, you won’t need to press any buttons at all.

- Widgets Behind App Icons. Looking to make both 3D Touch and iOS widgets more useful, you can now access an app’s widget by 3D touching its icon.

- Siri Integration For Third Party Developers. Developers will now be able to hook into third party apps, enabling system-wide voice commands.

- QuickType Gets Smarter. QuickType — the buttons above the iOS keyboard that try to predict what you’re going to say — is getting a lot smarter by way of context.

- VoIP Integrated Right Into The Phone Dialer. VoIP-capable apps like Skype and WhatsApp can now hook right into the Phone application. No more crappy “John is calling! Open Skype!” notifications — it’ll can look just like a standard incoming call.

- Maps Gets A Refresh. Beyond an overall interface refresh, iOS’ built-in Maps app is picking up some tricks from Spotlight’s “Proactive” AI — namely, Maps will be able to dig into your calendars and location history to offer up directions to where it thinks you’re heading.

- Apple Music Gets A Cleaner Look. Pretty much right off the bat, Apple Music was bashed for being… a bit confusing. It was pretty, sure — but at first glance, it was a bit of a mess. Now it’s pretty AND easier to just pick up and use.

- All Of Your HomeKit Stuff In One Place. “Home” is an aggregator app, bringing all of these HomeKit devices — smart lights, connected garage door openers, etc — into one hub. You can set up “scenes” like “Night Mode” that lock your smartlocks and kill the lights, or geofenced triggers that open your garage door and turn on the AC when you get home.

- Messages Gets A Massive Refresh. When linking to things like images or YouTube, the Messages will show inline previews of those items instead of just an ugly link. Type something, switch to the emoji keyboard, and any word that has a correlating emoji will turn orange. Tap that orange word, and bam! Emoji-fied. Invisible Ink: Garbled messages that only appear when you swipe across them. Why? Because sometimes you want a message to have a bit of anticipation/surprise factor… or you want to know a message wont appear on screen until your recipient’s eyes (and not those of random snoops) are looking.

The developer preview lands today, a public beta will ship in July, but the public, built-for-everyone build will ship... you guessed it: this Fall.

And One More Thing...

Swift Playgrounds

Apple launched an iPad app called "Swift Playground" that aims to teach users how to code in Swift using simple, user-friendly lessons in a custom/lightweight development environment.



It launches this fall.

And that's WWDC 2016! See you next year!
