As every good “fanboy” knows, today was the day for Apple’s WorldWide Developers’ Conference (WWDC). This event is special because the tech giant presents new features, apps, operating systems to the developers who work to make software for Apple hardware.
The company has made a series of announcements for new software, including iOS12 for portable devices like iPads and iPhones and macOS10.14 for the firm’s computers. They also announced improvements for apps like the Siri personal assistant, better management for notification features, and improvements to the FaceTime video calling system.
It will take a few days for all of the new features, software, and apps to be analyzed by power users, developers, bloggers, and others. But, in the past it has been a bad idea to bet against this company. No matter the problems along the way, the Apple user base has shown a remarkable capacity for forgiveness and an ability to overcome a variety of problems with Apple software and hardware.
