Geeky. We're gonna go again. So we open on black. Does it have to be buck. Doesn't have to be black. It could be yellow. Now, my mind goes into like a cartoon. Imagine someone on their computer, they have an idea, and like they push like enter or some
grant button and it goes out to the world. And then all of a sudden, there's like millions of people around the globe that get to experience the thing that you've made. Are you actually to do all this.
Maybe the title of the film should be our journey into tomorrow. I see a little girl in an endless white room. She meets Craig Federighi. Hi, but we don't see him, we just hear His voice.
Now she's older and dressed for work. There has to be action at this point or like some sort of drama. She goes to work, and discovers something catastrophic, someone says, we have a bug. So she comes in, and pounds on the keyboard. And the bug is fixed. Yeah, it's like a Musical. Musical. Yeah, the bug but a musical.
We fixed the bug. We crushed the bug today. But wait a minute, why not make arena rock, dub, dub,
there wouldn't be any firewall use me. But I think why not. Pyro is fun.
Do you think it would work.
You will know if you don't try,
and welcome to WWDC. It's wonderful to see faces with us today. We're excited to share our latest technologies with you and with the incredible community of millions of Apple developers around the world. Your creativity and groundbreaking apps continue to deliver new and meaningful ways to enrich people's lives. We applaud the extraordinary work you've been able to do throughout this challenging time. Last year's WWDC was our most inclusive and most watched developer conference ever, with nearly 25 million viewers, so we decided to have so many people join us, and to see the impact it had on new Apple developers, as we broadened our audience, welcoming more people from more places around the world continue to look for ways to help cultivate the next generation of developers, with an emphasis on those underrepresented in technology. We host entrepreneur camps for black and female developers to foster the talents of future industry leaders, our developer academies, including the newest in Detroit, prepare the coders of tomorrow with valuable tools and training and learn to code, offers an amazing curriculum for people to develop new skills and learn Swift. We are committed to being a force for change, as we seek to make the world a better place full of opportunity for all of us. This year we're bringing you another online experience, featuring over 200 in depth sessions, one to one labs with Apple engineers, and so much more. We'll provide the tools you need to continue creating the world's most innovative apps. Apps that inspire us and new ways every day. And just like last year's WWDC this entire conference will be made available for free. We've got a lot of exciting news and breakthrough innovations to share with you today. So let's get started by turning it over to Craig, to tell us what's new in iOS.
Thanks Tim. All right, let's dive right in. For many of us, our iPhone has become indispensable. And at the heart of iPhone is iOS. iOS powers experiences we've come to rely on this year, we were inspired to create even more meaningful ways iPhone can help you. Our new release is iOS 15 It's packed with features that make the iOS experience adapt to and complement the way you use iPhone, whether it's staying connected with those who matter to you most. Finding the space to focus without distraction, using intelligence to discover the information you need, or exploring the world around you. Let's start off features that will let you stay connected in brand new ways, in a year when figuring out how to get face to face is felt more essential than ever, we've all found ourselves using video calling for just about everything. And when it comes to making calls that are easy, spontaneous and connect us with the people who matter most. FaceTime is a standout, with its incredibly intuitive design, end to end encryption since day one, FaceTime is how we catch up with friends around the world and how we stay close to family members, When we're a part, join these deeply personal moments over video can bring so much joy. It also has its challenges. Walking in person, our brains process hundreds of social auditory and visual cues when talking on a video call. Many of those signals can get lost, leaving us feeling drained. So this year, we've set out to make FaceTime calls feel more natural, comfortable, and lifelike. First is a feature that makes FaceTime calls sound like you're sitting in the very same room. We're bringing spatial audio to FaceTime, creating the sound field that helps conversations flow as easily as they do face to face. Now your friends voices are spread out to sound like they're coming from the direction in which their position on the video call, making your calls, more comfortable and more natural. Next, let's talk about two powerful new options for your microphone. The first is voice isolation. When you're on a FaceTime call your mic is picking up a cacophony of sound. So in voice isolation, machine learning distinguishes the sounds, walked out the ambient noise and prioritizes your voice so that it comes through, crystal clear. Check it out.
I wish it can be there, me. Let me fix this. Better right. Yeah. Birthday. Sometimes though, we want every bit of sound to come through. And that's when you switch to wide spectrum in wide spectrum your mic picks up an entire symphonies worth of sound, your voice, and everything around you. Next, let's turn to video. When you want to see every face in the room, you can now turn on grid view, giving you another way to view your group FaceTime calls. Here you see people in the same size, tiles, and you'll be able to clearly identify who's speaking, while seeing everyone else's reactions, and to make your FaceTime video capture more beautiful than ever. We're introducing portrait mode. We've taken inspiration from iPhone stunning portrait photos in FaceTime portrait mode blurs the background and naturally puts the focus on you. Next, help you schedule your FaceTime calls, we've created, FaceTime links. Now you can generate a link for FaceTime call, and share it anywhere. It's a terrific way to plan ahead for a call. You can send the FaceTime link in places like messages, email, WhatsApp or jump into Calendar and make an event for your FaceTime call so everyone will know exactly where to meet, and when. And it's not just Apple devices that can use a FaceTime link to join your call your friends with Android and Windows devices can use your FaceTime link to join the call right from their browser, and even on the web FaceTime calls are still, end to end encrypted, so your privacy is never compromised. Some of our favorite ways to connect involve more than just talking like getting together for a weekly movie night, or listening to an album with friend brings back amazing memories, love and joy and shared experiences. And so we built, share play share play is a powerful new set of features for shared experiences that you can enjoy when you're on a FaceTime call, we share play, you can bring music into your call for a shared listening experience unlike any other, watch movies and TV shows while having rich, real time connection with your friends and share your screen, giving you limitless possibilities for bringing apps right into your FaceTime calls. Let me show you how this works, starting with listening together. Say you're hanging out on a FaceTime, talking about a new album that came out over the weekend. We share play, you could bring that album, Right into the conversation. When you're on a call, all you need to do is press play in Apple Music, and you can choose to listen together like magic, high quality music playback will start in sync for everyone on the call, and you're still connected with FaceTime while listening, everyone on the call can add songs to share cue and shared playback controls let anyone press play, pause, or jump to the next track. Now let's check out what it's like to watch together. When you're on a FaceTime call jump to a streaming app, and press play, and boom, you and your friends are watching the same video, totally in sync, share play is unlike any other shared content experience out there, because it moves fluidly throughout the whole system. Maybe you want to order takeout while you watch picture and picture let you see your friends, and the video you're enjoying together, and controls are always accessible with just a tap. If the group wants to stay connected with no interruptions to the video sound. You can jump into messages and keep the conversation going there. And when the moment calls for a bigger screen, you can extend the video to your Apple TV and watch it there by sharing the moment with your friends over FaceTime on your iPhone. Even when you're using share play across multiple devices, everyone will remain in sync. We wanted to make sure you have a ton of incredible experiences to share and FaceTime. So in addition to Apple Music and the TV app share play is designed to work with your other favorite apps and streaming services with an API built for easy adoption, developers can bring their own apps right into FaceTime, and today we're so pleased to announce that we're already working with some incredible partners, watch blockbuster movies with their friends, on Disney plus and hit TV shows on Hulu catch originals from HBO Max and see your friends react live to a buzzer beater in the NBA app or a speed run on Twitch, jump on tick tock to watch the funniest Videos of the Week, learn a new skill with a friend on masterclass and so much more. Finally, checkout screen sharing. You can use it to browse Zillow listings live with your future roommates or show off a tricky move and your favorite game screen sharing is also a simple and super effective way to help someone out and answer questions right in the moment, and it works across Apple devices. So that's share play a whole new way in FaceTime, to connect and share experiences with the people you love. Next, when it comes to staying connected throughout the day, our go to his message. And these days, so many of our conversations are inspired through sharing articles, photos, and more. So this year we're introducing great new ways to enjoy all of this amazing shared content, and the exchanges that follow. Here's Mindy to show you how it all works.
Thanks Craig. I'm so excited to show you what's new and messages. Let's check out my family's conversation. Everyone's sending me pictures from our fun trip down to Joshua Tree. Look at this brand new collage design in this cool stack with even more photos from Taylor. I can quickly swipe through them. Tap to view the full bunch, and even add a quick tap back. Now let's see what's going on with my friends, they're always sending me all kinds of things like this fun playlist from Leah, and this mission critical article from Casey, about what type of pizza is best. The thing is the time when I received this great content is often different than when I'm ready to enjoy it. For example, I'm not going to read this right now, but I'd love to the next time I catch up on the news. Let me show you something we designed just for that called shared with you. So now if I head over to the news app, there's a new shared with you section that conveniently surfaces that pizza article, and a few from my other friends. Now that I'm ready to learn more, I can take a look and check this out. Up top, it shows me who it's from. And I can tap from Casey, to pick up our conversation and remind her that deep dish is obviously the best kind of pizza, and then get right back to browsing. So now if I want to check out that playlist Leah sent earlier, I can head over to Apple Music, and it's right here. Let's take a listen. Love it, definitely adding this one to my library. Now what I really love is photos, remember there's great pictures from my family's trip to Joshua Tree. Well over in the photos at the new shared with you section makes it super easy to get back to them. They'll also appear in my featured photos and memories. And what's really cool is they're automatically brought over to my library too. So if I scroll back to that Joshua Tree trip and drill in, you can see all the great photos, my cousin sent are right here but the ones I took making my collections so much more complete with zero effort in photos is smart enough to only bring over the ones I actually care about, like the ones I was there for. So I don't have to worry about screenshots or means cluttering up my library. So that sharing in iOS 15. Back to you, Craig. In addition
to photos, Apple Music and news we've built shared with you into Safari Apple podcasts, and the Apple TV app, and if something, especially important comes through, you can quickly pin it, And it'll be elevated and shared with you, and places like search. So that's messages was shared with you. Bring the connection to the places you love to enjoy content together with share play and other powerful updates to FaceTime, we're giving you even more meaningful ways to connect, of course, that means making the time for it. So we have new tools to help you focus on what matters most. Today, iPhone plays so many roles in our lives. It's where we get information, how people reach us, and where we get things done. This is great, but it means our attention is being pulled in so many different directions and finding that balance between work and life can be tricky. We want to free up space to focus and help you be in the moment. And that starts with notifications. They have a fresh new look, contact photos for people, and larger icons for apps, making them even easier to identify. Notifications are useful because they can pile up throughout the course of a day breaking your focus in those moments when you're trying to get in the zone. And the truth is, while some notifications require your immediate attention. Others can be dealt with later. To help you engage on your own time, we're introducing the notifications summary, a helpful collection of your notifications. You can schedule to be delivered at any time you choose, like in the morning and evening, we use on device intelligence based on how you interact with your apps to arrange the summary, so it's easy to quickly catch up notifications in the summary are ordered by priority with the most relevant ones, rising to the top notifications from people will not end up in the summary so you won't miss important messages as they come in. If now really isn't a good time. You can use Do Not Disturb to silence all notifications. And it turns out, it's even easier to step away and focus if people know we're busy, so we created an easy way to signal to others when you're doing that. Now, when you're using do not disturb your status is automatically displayed in messages. When you reach out to someone who's indicated they don't want to be disturbed, you'll be reminded in that moment. And for truly urgent messages, there's a way to get through. While an important part of finding focus is about reducing distraction from others. It's also about drawing boundaries for yourself. There may be periods in your day, when you want to be totally focused on work. Or maybe you just want to be fully present with your family at dinner. In these moments, you can use Do Not Disturb or strike more of a balance with Focus. Focus is a new way to match your device to your current mindset with focus, all you have to do is choose what you want to focus on, you can carve out time in your day for work or your personal life, and setting up a focus, we use on device intelligence about your past activity to suggest, apps, and people to allow notifications from. So, if your work, you could choose to only be notified by coworkers or apps like Mail, Calendar, or slack. You can even dedicate a page on your homescreen to match your focus and organize your apps and widgets in a way that reduces temptations and make it only your work apps visible for your personal life will suggest be notified only by friends and family, or apps like call, and for homescreen to match, you can have your favorite entertainment apps like YouTube or widgets for keeping up with your friends and family. Even intelligently suggest using a focus based on your context, using different signals like location or time of day. Of course you can create a custom focus too. And when you use a focus on one device, it automatically sets on all your other devices. We think together, these tools are really powerful way to help you find balance. Not only does iOS gives you space to focus. It also uses intelligence to elevate your experience helping you discover more and your photos, quickly find what you're looking for, and even relive special moments. Let's get started with a feature we call live text. Today our photos are full of rich and useful information from photos of places we visit to handwritten notes a family recipes, and now live text unlocks this information in a way that's really natural. It starts with a camera. Let me show you. Let's say I just finished a meeting with the team, and I want to capture my notes from the whiteboard. I can now just point the camera at the whiteboard, and an indicator appears here in the lower right. When I tap it, the text just jumps right out. I can use my normal text selection gestures, it doesn't drag and copy. Now I can switch over to male, and paste those in, and then send this off to Tim. How cool is that. And this is great for photos already in your photo library. Here's a photo of a friend. You may notice that here at the top, there's some text, Now I can just select it, like this guy have the option to use a lookup. To find out more about this restaurant, and even look up its location. Oh, and here's a picture from a friend. Now, you may notice here in the background is a phone number. I can just zoom in and with live text, it's recognized with a link, I can just tap it and give this place a call, just like that. I wonder what's
up sorry, I just applying a deep neural network here to a photo of your shop no actual need for ice cream at this time, gotta drop by. Live text works with photos, across the entire system, including screenshots, quick look, and even photos on the web, and it understands seven languages including simplified and traditional Chinese and works across iPhone, iPad and Mac. And it's not just text. you can also look up information on recognized objects and scenes, just tap and you can look up information like the breed of a dog or type of a flower. And this works for art, books, nature, pets, and landmarks are also making it easier to search for your photos by adding photos to spotlight spotlight is the universal place to start, all of your searches. Now, with photo search and spotlight, you can quickly find your photos, right from the home screen spotlight leverages intelligence from the Photos app so you can search by people, scenes elements in your photos or location like San Francisco and leveraging live text spotlight can even find text in your photos, which is great when you're looking for a photo of a recipe or receipt or even a handwritten note. We've also added all new rich results for contacts, you'll have quick access to call, text, or FaceTime or email them and spotlight intelligently includes everything related to them, their location is shared to find my recent conversations, shared photos calendar appointments, notes and files, and we've added all new rich results for actors and musicians, TV shows and movies as well. That's spotlight. Next, let's talk about how photos uses its deep understanding of what's in your library to enable powerful emotional features like memories. Memories intelligently curates your favorite moments stitching photos and videos together into heartfelt movies, take a closer look at what's new. Here's Chelsea.
Thanks, Greg. It's here we've got the biggest update ever, including bringing Apple music
into your memories for the first time. Let me show you here in the Photos app, I can tap on the for you tab, and my memories are right at the top. Check out this beautiful new animated title card. Let's watch this one of my climbing adventures. You'll hear a relevant personalized song from Apple Music, that brings the memory to life.
Memories are built on the fly, are interactive, and alive and are paced to the beat of the music, I can touch on hold to pause, and the music continues to play. When I let go, the pacing adjusts to get back on beat. And to see a photo again. All it takes is a swipe to customize my memory, I'll use a new feature called memory mixes. I can tap to bring up the controls and tap this button to jump in, swiping on this carousel lets me try out different mixes with intelligently chosen songs, pacing, some look to match. Notice how the feel of the memory changed with a calmer song, Slower transitions and a black and white look.
The faster song has a more energetic feel, and these looks aren't just filters, we analyze each photo and apply consistent color and contrast, just like a colorist of the film studio to check out more intelligent song suggestions, I'll tap on the music button, you'll notice these top suggestions are a great fit for my climbing memory with 10s of millions of songs in the Apple Music Library, experts have curated sets of songs that are combined with my music tastes and the knowledge of what's in my photos to create personalized recommendations, just for me. I can search for a specific song by tapping on the magnifying glass, but I'm going to go with something from my listening history. The song from Imagine Dragons will be perfect.
I can keep watching related memories, personalized with my favorite songs from Apple Music. Now, back to Greg
with live text look up spotlight and memories iOS 15 elevates the iPhone experience with on device intelligence. Next, let's talk about how iOS helps you better understand and explore the world around you with some great updates to wallet, weather, and maps. Tell us about what's new in wallet. Here's Jennifer
with the Apple Wallet app, We set out to replace your physical wallet, starting with Apple Pay, we added payment cards to make payments safer and more secure.
Next, we brought transit cards, express mode to your iPhone, you just breeze through the turnstiles in San Francisco, New York, Beijing Tokyo, and more. And just recently, Walt Disney World, out of their park passes creating magical moments as you tap to enter ride and explore. You can never leave home without your keys. So we're continuing to add keys to wallet and making them even better. We started with car keys, which were improving with Ultra wideband support for an unlock and drive experience. No need to take your iPhone out of your bag or pocket. BMW and others we'll ship cars with you WP starting later this year with iOS 15 We're bringing keys for your everyday places to wallet, starting with where you live, we're creating the fastest most secure way to unlock your house, apartment or flat, and where you work, just add a corporate badge and tap to enter your building or office, and where you travel with hotel keys, you'll automatically receive your key when your room is ready, even before you arrive at the hotel. Starting this fall. Hyatt hotels will start rolling this out to over 1000, properties worldwide. Creating a faster and safer experience for their guests. Anywhere you go, just tap to unlock an incredible range of partners for locks and Access systems have signed on to support keys for all the places you go. However, to be fully free of your physical wallet. There's one more thing we need to bring to iPhone, and that's your ID. So we're bringing identity cards to Apple wallet. This fall, you'll just scan your driver's license or state ID and participating US states. It's that easy. Your ID information is now in wallet encrypted and safely stored in the secure element, the same hardware technology that makes Apple Pay, private and secure. And the TSA is working to enable airport security checkpoints as the first place you can use your digital ID. When you present your ID, you'll know what specific information is requested, and securely presented with just a tap, you're off to your flight. So that's wallet on your iPhone and Apple Watch. Back to you, Craig. Next up,
weather. The weather app is incredibly popular and it's getting a huge update. First, we're introducing a beautiful new design with data and layouts that change based on conditions, such as wind and rain unhealthy air quality, or sunny skies. We've also added new weather graphics to help users better understand conditions like wind UV index and barometric pressure, and we've completely redesigned the gorgeous animated backgrounds, there are now 1000s of variations that more accurately represent the Sun position clouds and precipitation, and the weather app and I was 15 includes full screen, high resolution weather maps. These maps show temperature anime precipitation and air quality. They provide a whole new way to see the weather around you. Next, we have some really big updates for another app, our users depend on every day. Apple Maps, Apple Maps is the best way to navigate your world, it's easy to use and beautifully designed, while providing the confidence that your privacy is protected. Here's make to tell you more.
Two years ago we started rolling out our new map, offering richer details and more accurate navigation to help you get around, built from the ground up, we've launched our new maps so far in the US, UK, Ireland and Canada, and we're excited to announce for bringing the new map today to Spain and Portugal, and later this year, we'll add Italy and Australia has been to build the world's best map. So we looked at everything we've done so far and asked ourselves how can we push things even further. We started by building a gorgeous interactive globe that invites users to tap and explore. This is a whole new way of looking at the world, but it's in cities where we're taking Apple Maps to an entirely new level. Our current map is great, and our users have told us it's a lot more useful for navigation and exploration, but an iOS 15 maps will offer incredible new details for commercial districts marinas buildings and so much more. We've added things like elevation, new road colors and labels, as well as hundreds of custom design landmarks for places like Coit Tower and the Golden Gate Bridge. And we built a beautiful new nighttime mode with a moonlit glow. We think all of these improvements are going to make exploring cities so much fun for maps users. And when a user is ready to go somewhere, maps and iOS 15 will make getting their way better. Let's start with driving. We've added a great deal of new road details to the map, so we can help drivers as they move throughout a city, to better see and understand important things like turn lanes medians bus and taxi lanes, and more. This outstanding attention to detail, including the addition of crosswalks and bike lanes will help drivers more safely navigate complex intersections. And when driving on highways, that's now renders overlapping complex interchanges in three dimensional space, making it much easier to see upcoming traffic conditions, or to know which lane you need to be in. And of course we'll be bringing this driving experience to CarPlay later this year.
But it's not just driving.
We've also made big improvements for transit riders, by helping them easily find nearby stations, users can pin their favorite lines to the top, and even keep track on their Apple Watch, So there's no need to take your phone out of your pocket. Maps also automatically follows your transit route, notifying you it's time to disembark. As you approach your final destination. And if you've ever exited a station, unsure of which direction you need to go maps will help get you back on track. Simply hold up your iPhone, scan the buildings in the area, and that's will generate a highly accurate position, delivering detailed directions and augmented reality, to help you complete your journey. We're launching this beautiful new three dimensional experience in these cities by the end of 2021, with many more to come next year. And that's the all new Apple Maps. Back to you, Craig.
So that's just some of what's new and Apple Maps, an incredible new way to explore the natural beauty of the world, and an amazing new three dimensional city experience with improved navigation iOS 15 is a great release that helps you stay connected. Find focus. Discover more with on device intelligence and explore the world and there's more, including Voice Search and Safari, powerful support for cross app drag and drop and new outfit options from emoji. So that's iOS 15 with powerful new features that enhance how you use iPhone. And of course, one of our most popular accessories for iPhone is air pods to tell you about what's new. Here's gug
air pods have helped us enjoy music like never before. And they've helped to stay connected in so many different ways, whether to friends and family, to our devices are to our favorite entertainment with iOS 15 We have some great new features coming to air pods, starting with conversation Boost, which is designed to help people with mild hearing challenges, stay more connected in conversations through computational audio and beamforming microphones conversation boosts focuses your Airpods Pro on the person talking in front of you, making it easier to hear and follow along in a face to face conversation until you hear the conversation even better. You can also reduce the amount of ambient noise. Next, when you can't reach for your iPhone, announced messages with Siri helps you stay connected. iOS 15 takes us further with announced notifications. Now Siri can automatically read your important time sensitive notifications to you, like when your dinner has been delivered. And when you set a location for your reminder, like the grocery store, Siri will read your shopping list to you right when you need it. You can easily choose which apps to enable, it's like Do Not Disturb when you don't want to be interrupted. And if you're using the new focus feature your notification preferences are already taken into account. Next, we have significantly improved how air pods work and find my with iOS 15 You can locate your Airpods pro in air pods Max using the Find mate network. Your AirPod simply send out a secure Bluetooth beacon that can be detected by other apple devices. They can relay your Airpods location to the network, and then back to your find my app. And if they're nearby, just choose play sound. Listen for the chirp, whether they're in their case or out. And then your proximity view in the Find my app lets you know when you're getting close to make it even less likely to lose your air pods, you can now receive a separation alert to notify you if you leave your air pods behind. Finally, last year we introduced spatial audio with dynamic head tracking for AirPods Pro, and then elevated the experience, even further with the high fidelity audio of air pods Max, enabled by computational audio, the three dimensional theater like sound really makes movies come to life. This fall we're excited to extend spatial audio to TV OS. So now you can enjoy the full surround experience tuned for the big screen in your living room without disturbing the rest of the house. And with dynamic head tracking it properly responds as you move about the room. We're also bringing spatial audio with dynamic head tracking to Mac OS on our new M one powered Macs, so you can enjoy spatial audio on all of your devices. In addition, we recently announced spatial audio for Apple Music, with the incredible multi dimensional sound experience of Dolby Atmos, and we're excited that it's available starting today with albums from some of your favorite artists like Ariana Grande de the weekend, J Balvin in Kacey Musgraves with the benefits of conversation boost the convenience of fine my in the enhanced experience with spatial audio. There are some great new features coming to the AirPods family. Now back to you, Craig.
It's time to talk about iPad iOS iPad is an incredibly versatile device, with its unique blend of mobility, innovative technologies and touch first user experience, and this experience is powered by iPad OS. With iPad OS, we build distinct capabilities that make it possible for iPad to become whatever you need it to be like when you're browsing your photos, an iPad becomes an album of your most precious memories held right in your hands, or when you pick up Apple pencil, and it becomes your notepad, a markup tool or Canvas for new artwork or when you attach a keyboard and trackpad, and it becomes a powerful way to work on your most important documents. This unique set of capabilities mean that you can get things done right in the moment and can seamlessly move from capturing and working on your ideas to sharing them with iPad os 15 We're taking this versatility further making iPad even more capable and more intuitive, and we started right on the home screen, with widgets. They offer beautiful glanceable information at just the right moments, and this year we have a big update. Now you can place widgets among the apps on your home screen. This is a huge deal. Let me show you how it works. Okay, here I am on the home screen, you can see that I already have a few widgets placed along the top. Let's start by adding a widget. I'll bring up the widget gallery here, you'll notice some new widgets, like the beautiful new find my widget, and the context widget, which helps you reach family and friends, with just a tap. Let's find a good spot for this towards the top here. Now, I'll go back to the gallery and grab the parcel widget for tracking my incoming packages, right on the home screen. Perfect. Now of course, a bigger canvas means more room for widgets. So we're adding a new larger format for widgets designed just for iPads larger display. Here's the new Apple TV widget, I can easily dive into my favorite shows with a tab, and here's my gaming page. The New Game Center widget lets me jump into my games faster and discover what to play with friends, and check out the new large size photo widget. It really puts my favorite photos, front and center. And with this larger files widget, I can keep tabs on all my work projects. Now with pages full of these great widgets, some of my less frequently used apps have gotten pushed to later pages. We wanted to make it easier to get to all of your apps. So we've brought App Library to iPad, you can see all my apps are here automatically categorized for me. And what's really cool is we built access to app library right into the dock. So no matter where you are, you can always get to your apps. And now that you have App Library, you can hide pages that you no longer need. Just like this, and even reorder them right from here. That's widgets and App Library. We think this is going to change how you get information and access all your apps on iPad. We also have a major update for another key part of the iPad OS experience multitasking. This year we've made it easier to discover, easier to use an even more powerful to give you a closer look, here's Shivam. Thanks, Greg. In iPad os 15, there's a new control that appears at the top of your apps, tapping on it reveals
the multitasking menu. From here, I can take an app full screen, or work with two apps at the same time, by creating a split view or slide over.
I'll tap on the Split View icon, and the app slides to the edge of the screen, giving me quick access to my homescreen, where I can select from any of my apps. I've been working on a podcast, so I'll choose ferrite. And now I can work with ferrite and notes at the same time, in Split View. It's also really easy to switch apps in Split view, if I want to replace ferrite I can swipe down and notes move to the side, letting me pick another app from the homescreen.
Let's select male. This works exactly the same way to choose a new app for either side and screen, we brought the same ease of multitasking to apps with multiple
windows in mail, I can touch and hold on this message to open it centered on my screen. This allows me to read the entire email
without leaving my current view. And I have the same multitasking controls here too, so I can easily move this into split view or slide over, but I want to save this email, and come back to it later. So I can just swipe down to minimize it into a new area are calling the shelf. The shelf gives me easy access to all open windows have an app. Let's go to Safari, and you'll see that the shelf appears
automatically when I switch apps. I often have a lot of Safari windows open. Many in Split View paired with other apps, and now I can just tap to quickly switch between them. I can also add or remove windows right here from the shelf. We've made the app switcher, even more powerful. I can now create a split view, just by dragging one app over another. So that's multitasking in iPad was 15. Now, back to you, Greg.
Thanks Shivam. These new multitasking features will help our users be more productive and do even more on their iPad. And what's really cool is we now have a new set of keyboard shortcuts that let you do all of this without lifting a finger. iPad iOS 15 also gives you more powerful ways to capture and organize your information with notes. This year, we're adding powerful new features for collaboration and organization. First, we're adding mentions just mentioned someone in a shared note, and they'll get a notification, linking them back. There's also an all new activity view that quickly shows you what's changed in a shared note while you were away, and to give users new ways to organize their notes, we're adding tags. You can add a tag anywhere in your node, and then use the tag browser to quickly find your notes, but sometimes you just want to quickly jot down a note to remember something important for later. And that's why we're taking notes system wide with a feature we call quick note. Quick note is a fast and easy way to get to a note, no matter what you're doing. Here's we'll show you how it works.
Thanks. Great. Starting a quick note is easy when I swipe the note appears out of the corner of the screen. Now that I've started a note, I can type, I can write with Apple pencil. It's perfect for jotting down something like a phone number. And when I'm done, I just swipe it away. That's open Safari. What's super cool about quick note, is that it's aware of the app I'm using. I'll start a new Quick net on top of Safari. And now I can easily add a link from the website into my quick name, I can tap this link, anytime, to return to this exact site. Let's go to a website, added a link to earlier. A small thumbnail pops up in the corner. That allows me to quickly get back to my quick note, containing any useful information I found. You'll notice this text highlighted on the page. I added this text to my quick note, and tapping on a link from a highlight, takes me right to the content on the page, I can add a link from almost any app I'm using, including third party apps. Here's a link from Yelp, and if I tap it takes me right to the restaurant listing, I can swipe across my quick note to see my most recent ones, and anytime I want to see all my quick notes, I can find them right where you'd expect in next. Now back to Craig,
thanks well. So that's quick note, a nap information anywhere, quick notes can be created on iPad iOS and Mac OS, and you can access and edit them later on iOS. Now, let's talk about translate in just one year translate has already helped users make billions of translations on iOS. So we're excited to bring translate to iPad with experiences that leverage iPads unique capabilities like practicing handwriting in another language with Apple pencil or translating right next to your document was split view, and translate was designed for conversations. So we're making conversations feel easier and even more natural. With Auto Translate. Auto Translate detects when you're speaking, and in which language, so no one needs to tap a button to respond, just speak, and let translate do the rest. We're also excited to announce system wide translation, so you can translate text anywhere, just select the text and tap translate with live text, you can even translate text in a photo system wide translation is available on iPad iOS, iOS and Mac OS, and of course you can download languages to use all of these features on device, whether you're working on a document or meeting with someone, translate makes iPad even more powerful. Now, let's talk about Swift Playgrounds and how it's bringing a whole new dimension of productivity to iPad. Swift Playgrounds is a great way to learn to code, through a series of Apple design lesson plans that are interactive and fun. This year, we're taking it even further by adding the ability to build apps on iPad, you build these apps with Swift UI, which makes development, easy, the code you write is immediately reflected in the live preview of your app, this new project type even works with Xcode on Mac, Swift Playgrounds now supports improve code completion. So you can just start typing and quickly add the suggestion to your code, you also have access to the whole library of UI components and the documentation to go with it. And if you're new to app development, There's a guide to creating your first app while you're developing your app, you can run it full screen to try it out, and when you're ready, you can even submit it to the App Store. This is amazing. You can now build apps for iPhone and iPad on iPad. We think this will take iPad to new places that iPad iOS 15 Taking the versatility of iPad even further with new widget layouts for your home screen app library and a redesigned multitasking experience new notetaking and translation features, and the ability to build apps with Swift. Swift Playgrounds combined with the great new features we talked about an iOS, it's time to completely rethink what you can do with your iPad. Next, let's get into privacy
at Apple, we believe privacy is a fundamental human right. We don't think you should have to make a trade off between great features and privacy. We believe you deserve both since the beginning, we've worked to help you keep your personal data under your control. And over the years we've integrated powerful privacy controls into our operating systems. Most recently, adding privacy nutrition labels and App Tracking transparency. Today, privacy is more important than ever. Because when you use the internet and third party apps, You can be tracked by a complex ecosystem of data brokers and ad tech firms, often without your permission. We don't think this is right. We believe in protecting your privacy and giving you transparency and control over your information, and to tell you about the new ways we're giving you even more control. Here are Katie and Eric.
Thanks Craig. Let's start with mail. If you're like me, you get a lot of marketing emails like this, but you may not realize
is that many of these emails, use invisible pixels to collect information about your mail activity, like when you open a message, and even your IP address. We think you should be able to choose whether to allow this or not. So now in the Mail app, we're introducing mail privacy protection.
Here's what it does, it hides your IP address. So senders can't link it to your other online activity or determine your location, and it prevents senders from seeing if and when you've opened their email. So now, you can
catch up on email, with greater peace of mind. Safari leads the industry in protecting you against cross site tracking with intelligent tracking prevention, and this year we're making it even stronger by also hiding your IP address from trackers, so they can't use it to link your activity across different sites, or learn your location. You can see which trackers are prevented from profiling you in the safari privacy report. We wanted to bring the same transparency to apps use too.
So we're introducing the app privacy report, this new section settings, gives you an overview of how apps treat your privacy. You can see how often apps use the permission is granted to access your location,
photos, camera, microphone, contacts, and more during the last seven days, and to find out who your data may be shared with you can see all the third party domains. The app is contacting. So these are new privacy system controls. Now, let's talk about Siri
series available across all of your Apple devices, allowing you to quickly get things done with Gesture voice and series be used more than ever on over 600 million devices, each month. We recently added more diverse series voice options, and they sound incredible. Hi, I'm Siri, if you need anything, just ask Siri has a ton of great new features this
year, but today we want to focus on a major update to privacy series designed to process as much data on device as possible, keeping your information private. And with the power of the neural engine, we're able to do this more than ever. Today we're introducing on device, speech recognition. This means that by default, your audio is all processed right on your iPhone or iPad. This addresses the biggest privacy concern we hear for voice assistance, which is unwanted audio recording. And this has some great benefits beyond privacy. First, you can now make many requests, without an internet connection, launch apps change settings control music and more. Second, on device processing speeds things up, check this out, I'll do a few requests back to back,
open photos. Open calendar, turn on airplane mode. Set a timer for 20 minutes. Switch to dark mode. Wake me up at 7am. It's amazing how fast Syria is with on device processing. So those are some of the powerful new privacy protections in mail Safari, and your apps, along with on device speech recognition for Siri, back to Craig.
Next, another part of our ecosystem that puts your privacy first is iCloud, here to tell you about some great new updates is Mike and
me of us rely on I store a lot of personal information. And it's important to always have access, but let's start off with two improvements we're making your Apple ID. First we're adding a new way to get back into your account. If you ever forget your password or get locked out. You'll now have the option to add people you trust, like family and friends to a recovery contact list, they won't get any access to your account. But if you ever forget your password, you can call them to get the code you need to get right back in. It's fast, easy and secure. Second, we're launching a new digital legacy program. We don't often think about it, but it's important that we can easily pass down information to family members or friends when we pass away. You'll now be able to add people to your account as legacy contacts. So when you're gone, they can request access and your information can be passed along quickly and easily always kept your important information like photos, documents and notes, safe, up to date and accessible across all of your devices. And today we're making some big updates. We're upgrading our page to something that we call iCloud plus iPhone Plus combines everything you love about iCloud, with some great new features. Starting with something to help protect your privacy online, on any given day, we all use a variety of networks to browse the web from the internet in our own homes to public Wi Fi on the go, and behind the scenes network providers and websites can combine your identity and browsing history into a detailed profile about you. So now, in addition to everything Safari does to protect you online. We are introducing a new service called Private relay. It lets you browse with Safari, and even more secure and private way. And the way it works is really cool. It ensures that the traffic leaving your device is encrypted, so no one can intercept and read it. Then all of our requests to separate internet realize it's designed so that no one, including Apple can see both who you are and what sites you're visiting, and it does all this without compromising performance. Next let's talk about another iCloud plus feature, hide my email. We've all had moments we've thought twice about sharing our personal email address, like when we're filling out a form on the web, with hide my email, you can share a unique random address that forwards messages to your personal inbox. And it's built right into mail, Safari, settings, so it's easy to set up as many addresses as you need, and delete them at any time, keeping you in control. iCloud plus also includes built in support for HomeKit secure video, more and more of us are using security cameras to keep an eye on our homes with iCloud Plus, you can connect more cameras than ever, and none of the video counts against your iCloud storage. It's just a part of your subscription. Of course you'll still get everything else you love about iCloud, including photos, I got an iCloud Drive. And the best part is, we're not changing our prices at all, you'll get all of iCloud, what's new private really hide my email and HomeKit secure video support for the same low prices we offer today. We're really excited to be giving users an even more private and connected experience, like a plus. Now over to Sunbow for the latest developments in health,
your health and your life is always important to you, and never more so than this past year, Apple's commitment to health is stronger than ever. We're collaborating with medical experts to accelerate health innovation, and we're empowering individuals to improve their health, as well as make it easier for them to participate in large scale research studies with our API's developers are using our devices and health app to come up with ingenious ways to push things. Here's an example. I'm Francoise Marvel, I'm a cardiology Fellow at Johns Hopkins,
Martin, I'm also a cardiologist at Johns Hopkins stuff and I spend our days, alongside our patients in the bedside, you know, six white coats, hovering over, and we're trying to actually share what the patient's condition is, and how they need to improve their life, we use medical jargon we speak quickly we confuse patients, and they're left on their own, their past, has to be a better way than just treating a patient, handing them a bunch of papers and extinct, they're going to understand how to change their life and we thought, well, what if we completely re engineer the process of heart attack patients by using research kit and caregiver health kit, and then connecting it with an Apple Watch, so we can bring in key cardiovascular metrics that help us to know patients are doing well.
When Francoise was in technology accelerator program at Hopkins, the work there, led to this phone call with Apple and towards the end of the phone call, Francoise said at Apple, what can we do to accelerate this and Divya
said you guys got to come out to Cupertino, let's turn your vision into reality, and we had a Silicon Valley, Airbnb, and we started side by side coding with our iOS developers, Then every couple hours we would talk about their vision, and the tools they could leverage, we go to a whiteboard and we lay out your the phasing. When we go back to our Airbnb for more coffee, you know orders and double tees, need some food, and then we would go into Cupertino and come back into Cupertino piled in a minivan and spent like almost a full day they're getting more feedback working with their teams building our offices and working through the night, building and implementing the things we had talked about with our tools and their vision we ultimately made magic together.
We left Cupertino invigorated, and guess what, our clinical trial was able to save an incredible amount of people from having complications and come back to the hospital and it reduced hospital readmissions by 52%, and likely saved a lot of lives I remember we were just sitting outside, beautiful Cupertino weather
and are just one of those moments where Dawn then as Maria had was going to have an impact on so many people's hearts around the world. This is the start of something incredible. It's the spark and now it's like fire.
This is just one of the many inspiring stories out there and is a testament to the innovative work happening in the medical community, a critical part of taking care of yourself is monitoring changes in your health, which can be subtle and easy to miss over time. So this year we're offering three new features to help you to identify measure and understand those changes. And here's a tip to tell you about the first of these features.
Let's start with mobility, Reva to move and rock can indicate balance issues, and
this is the leading cause of falls and adults. Currently, followed by a care provider through a questionnaire, and an in person evaluation. This can help your everyday movement and changes can go unnoticed. Your iPhone already captures mobility data as you walk with scientifically validated metrics. We're building on this to introduce a completely new way to assess your risk of falling called Walking steadiness, for the first time ever, you can get inside if your fall risk increases, and take action, early to improve your steadiness. Let's take a quick look at some of the science behind this. As you walk with your iPhone. The built in motion sensors, automatically measure how fast and how evenly you walk, the length of your steps, and the timing of each step, right down to how often you have both feet on the ground. Combined, these metrics provide powerful insight on changes in your stability, and coordination, were used real world data from the Apple heart and move makes it with over 100,000 participants across all ages. This is the largest data set ever used to study fall risk, and it's helped create this first of its kind, health metric, you can view your walking steadiness and the health app, you'll see a classification of okay, if the metrics show that you're stable while walking. You can see how you're walking steadiness may change as the months go by and receive a notification if you're setting this as low or very low, and you're at increased risk of falling. You can also learn how to improve your steadiness. There are movement exercises right in the health app, and these can help you increase your strength and balance and reduce your risk of falling. Now Baca symbol to tell you about another way to monitor health changes.
You can already view lab results like your cholesterol, right in the health app. In the US alone 14 billion clinical laboratory tests are performed each year. That is a lot of information to keep track of when you see your results come in, it can be hard to understand what these tests mean or what has changed. The Health app will now include detailed descriptions to help you better understand your lab data. For example, when you receive a cholesterol result, you can now see that the LDL is the bad cholesterol and having too much may put you at risk for heart disease. You can also now see whether your labs are within expected ranges. Together these views will help you get even more meaning from your lab results, maybe health changes happen over time. So to better understand your health, even more holistically, we're introducing trends, you'll get insight on long term changes across areas such as steps, resting heart rate, blood glucose, sleep, and much more. You'll also be alerted when there's a new trend in your data, which may be something you want to monitor more closely, or even distribution. So if you're getting more daily walks in your health summary will show that your steps taken have increased over the last few months. This is a great way to celebrate progress towards meeting your health goals, and a powerful new way to get early insight into potential health issues with trends, walking steadiness and a better labs experience, you have three new ways to see changes in your overall health. Another really important part of managing your health is having meaningful conversations with your doctor during your visit physicians look at your vitals and labs will also ask you about everyday health activities like exercise and sleep, and patients can often have difficulty remembering all of these details, but the health app has all of this valuable information. So, to support this conversation, you can now share health data that you choose, with your health care provider in a private way. For example, if you have a concern about heart health, you can have your heart. This is shared securely. No one else, including Apple will see this information, you can then view this data directly from their electronic health record system, and look for important trends such as changes in activity and history of alerts like high heart rate, access to this information helps give your doctor a more complete view of your everyday health outside of the clinic. We're so excited about this new capability to share your data from the Health app directly with your doctor. These electronic health record companies in the US we'll be the first to support this feature, and we look forward to expanding availability for the coming months. Now for many of us, it's not just the choosing doesn't our own health we care about. It's the health of our family and loved ones to, whether they live with us or far away. For some of us that means for kids and for others it's our aging parents. And for many of us, it's actually taking care of both generations above and below, to empower you to care for others, we're introducing health sharing a private and secure way to view health data trends and alerts for the people most important to you. For example, I have a sharing relationship with my mom and with her permission, I can view data like her heart rate activity and lapse. And just like with my own health data trends proactively highlights changes in my mom's health data for me. I can also receive notifications, including high heart rate alerts, change in mobility, and more. And it's easy for me to connect with her about her health. So if I see a noteworthy change like her resting heart rate increasing, I can simply tap messages and start a conversation with my mom. This is a powerful new way to stay connected to the well being of those you love, you'll have peace of mind, and they'll know they have a trusted partner on their health journey since the beginning of our work in health, all of our health features have been architected to keep your data secure and protect your privacy, your health data is under your control, and is encrypted in transit and at rest, the permissions built into the sharing experience give you granular control over which types of data you share and with whom. And you can make changes at any time, right from the Sharing tab data you share is sent in an encrypted form, and Apple does not have access to any of this information privacy is fundamental in the design and development across all of our health features. We're so excited for what's coming in health, a first of its kind metric to assess fall risk, richer insights to understand changes in your health, and completely new abilities for you to privately share selected data with your doctors and loved ones. Now I'll hand it over to Kevin to talk about watch OH S.
Apple Watch is already loved watch in the world. It keeps you healthy, active and connected with features like fall detection ECG and cycle tracking watches an essential health companion. It motivates you to close your activity rings and transforms the way you stay fit and staying connected to the people and things you care about most is easy with Apple Watch, all from your wrist and watch USA, we're introducing more capabilities in each of these areas.

With the sleep app we introduced an entirely new way for you to meet your sleep goals and track metrics like time asleep, heart rate and even blood oxygen in WatchOS 8 Apple Watch can track another key metric while sleeping, respiratory rate. This is a vital sign that measures how many breaths you take per minute. And since you're sleeping respiratory rate tends to be consistent over time a change may indicate a shift in your overall wellness. You'll be notified full trend and your respiratory rate has been identified. And you can see even more detailed rate in the health app. Now I'd like to turn it over to jewels to tell you what's coming up, stay active.
Apple Watch is the perfect companion to motivate you to be more fit, and WatchOS 8 adds two of the most popular work types that are great for bringing more mindful movement to your routine. First, a new type to workout. This Chinese martial art is 1000s of years old and not described as meditation in motion.

Let's talk about some new features to keep you connected to the people you love. Photos are a great way to have your favorite moments and most precious memories on Apple Watch the photos face is the most popular watch face. That's why WatchOS 8 is bringing another great way to enjoy your favorite photos with the new portraits watch face. It takes a great portrait photos on your phone, and uses the segmentation data to create a multi layered face with depth, and you can make this watch face your own by adjusting the photos composition and time placement to really make the subject stand out. This is really great to see live, so let me invite Shandra to shut up.
Thanks, Kevin. The photo comes to life when you raise your wrist. And as you scroll the digital crown, you get a view of the dynamic opposition, that makes this watch this extraordinary. You're going to love how this face keeps you connected when you can't be face to face. Speaking of photos, the photos app itself has been completely redesigned. It now includes memory highlights, photos, in addition to your favorites. If I tap into this memory, I can scroll through the all new mosaic layout. My daughter was adopted her puppy fondue last year and are missing her during the day. The new photos are simple for us to quickly reminisce. This picture from my memories is a good one. I'm going to share it with Wesley to remind her we're not always missing fondues best moments. If I tap the Share icon you'll see that we now have support for sharing via messages and mail directly from my watch. Let's get this over to wisely. I'm going to tap Add message to show you that we've made it even easier to compose a message. We can now dictate scribble and add emojis in the same view. I always find it easy to dictate my messages.
Remember this.
If I tap scribble, I can edit my text is in line by selecting and deleting, what I'd like to change. And I can use the frown to move the cursor and add additional text. In what messages complete without emojis to get a point across, by tapping the emoji icon, I can add multiple emojis, while in this scribble view WatchOS 8 makes it easy to send a perfect message right from your wrist. That was quick. Wesley must have the puppy on the brain too. And with gifts now on Apple Watch, I can reply as comedically as I would from my iPhone. In the new app shelf you'll find hashtag images, you can search for the perfect gift, or choose from your reasons. I think a facepalm best captures how this photo makes me feel. And that's a look at what's coming in WatchOS 8 to keep you connected to the people and puppies, you care about most. And now, back to Kevin.
We think you're going to love these new features in photos and messages, and of course there's so much more, including next hour precipitation support for find items at multiple timers. Watch us is the world's most advanced wearable operating system, and watch USA takes it even further with new features to help you stay healthy, active and connected. And now, over to Craig.
Let's talk about the home at Apple, we design our products for the home to embody three key attributes, starting with being easy to use. We believe the tower in your home should work for you, not the other way around. And we design our products to work better together, so that your iPhone HomePod Many Apple and other devices can leverage each other, to deliver seamless experiences, and everything we do is built to be private and secure, which is so important to all of us with this foundation, we have a great set of features coming that are here to make life at home, more enjoyable to tell you more.

We're now making it available in countries and regions. In addition to everywhere we ship HomePod Many today, or, I live in New Zealand this month, and it'll be available by the end of the year. Also later this year. We'll begin bring with voice recognition everywhere HomePod Mini ships, giving each member of the home a personalized experience. So each person can ask Siri to send a message set their own reminders or hear a playlist curated just for them. We believe series most powerful when it's available throughout your house, which is why we're so excited to bring Siri to third party devices. For the first time HomeKit accessory makers can enable Siri in their products, so you'll be able to talk to Siri on even more devices. Hey Siri, set the duo nursing. We've designed that so that you see a request flow to your HomePod filecoin to any third party service providing the privacy you expect from Apple, accessories and they will see we'll be available starting later this year. And to make a smart home accessory work together seamlessly, we formed an alliance with other industry leaders to create a new Smart Home interoperability standard called matter. It leverages the HomeKit technology we open sourced last year, and we're excited to announce that support is coming in iOS 15 You can control home kit matter enable accessories with the Home app. It's available across Apple devices, and this year we're making the Home app even better on Apple Watch. You can tap on the broadcast a message or quickly access the accessories, you're most likely to need in that. You can even see what's going on around the house with a home kit and they do. So it's easy to see who's at the door and greet them right from your wrist.

Let's talk about Mac OS Mac OS has always been about the fusion of power and simplicity. And with our current release, Mac OS Big Sur, we introduced bold new design that gives users more control and huge updates for app, all while making everything even easier to use and when combined with the M one chip. Big Sur delivers unmatched levels of performance and battery life, with people using the Mac more than ever, Mac OS has become an even bigger part of our daily lives. And our next release is focused on helping you to eat more. But what should we call it. Well, that brings us to the latest exploits of our crack marketing team, with their annual vision quest poke our merry band of nomadic neighbors wandered aimlessly through the California Hills before donning their Technicolor wetsuits and immersing themselves in the inspiration of the beauty of Monterrey Makkah West Monterrey gives you the power to accomplish more than ever, and helps you work fluidly across all of your devices, incredible features we talked about earlier, are going to be great for the ways you work on a Mac, like the new capabilities in FaceTime, which help you look and sound your best, while talking to co workers or friends with share play, it's just plain awesome to watch shows together on your stunning Mac display, or share an app window, collaborate on a project, shared with you, offers a totally new way to discover photos, articles and more that people share with you over messages right in your Mac apps, and when you're working hard on Mac, you can choose a focus that syncs across all your devices, helping reduce distracting notifications so you can get your done, plus a quick note and notes give you versatile new ways to capture and organize your thoughts. These powerful features are just fantastic on Mac, and we have even more new features that make it easier to work across all devices, starting with continuity. Every device we make is powerful in its own way. And when you use them together, you unlock new experiences that feel truly magical. This year, we've created a new way to work across your devices with greater precision and speed, and we call it universal control with universal control, you can now use a single mouse and keyboard to move between your Mac and iPad for a seamless experience. Universal control is simple incredible, you just have to see it in action. Let me show it to you now. I'm putting the finishing touches on an illustration here now. It's the last piece I need to finish a presentation that I have open on my Mac Book. Now, I'll just set my iPad down next to my Mac. And check this out without any other setup, I'm going to simply move my Mac cursor towards my iPad and the iPad automatically recognizes it. And if I move a bit further. Boom, my cursor is now on the iPad for that. And now I can move my cursor back and forth, effortlessly between the two. Now it's easy to control my iPad with just the keyboard and trackpad on my Mac. For instance, I can click and close this document and flick on my trackpad to return to my home screen. I can swipe between my pages of apps. And I can use my Mac books keyboard to open up and say, launch notes, and even use command tab to switch back to procreate. This is really powerful, with universal control, I can even drag and drop files between my devices. I'm just going to take this drawing I finished on my iPad and drop it on the keynote on my Mac. Awesome. For our pros out there, universal control works with more than two devices. So let's add this iMac into the mix. Now I can use the trackpad on my MacBook Pro, my iMac, as well. I can also switch to use my iMac sports mouse. This is so cool. Watch this. Now I have a title text image I've been working on here in procreate. Now I'm going to take an image and drag it across all three devices, and drop it in to Final Cut. Just like that. Let's see the final product, ice, that's a quick look at Universal control on Mac OS Monterey, universal control makes it effortless to move between your devices, so you can be more productive and focus your energy on the task at hand. Another way our devices were great together is with
low weight airplanes, watch a movie, share a presentation from your iPhone to a TV, just like that. But there's another screen with its stunning Retina display that makes everything you watch simply amazing. That's why we're introducing AirPlay to Mac. It works just like AirPlay today so it's instantly familiar, you can play present and share just about anything. As you draw sketch on iPad colleagues can follow along on the bigger display, and you can even take advantage, any maximum high fidelity sound by using it as an AirPlay speaker AirPlay brings your Mac to life in a whole new way. Hey, your devices work together like never before, making it more fluid to work across them, and we're just reinventing how you work between devices are also giving you powerful new tools to get more work done on your devices. The Mac has a long history of automation with command line shell scripts Apple script and Automator and on iOS, we've made automation, even easier with shortcuts, but let's take all the taps and swipes you usually need to order your favorite lunch and makes it as asking Siri shortcuts is all about helping you get more done faster, because you can let your device do the work for you. And this year we're bringing shortcuts in the Mac, the Mac is after all, we turn for so much of our creative work, and now you can automate the stuff to achieve peak, productivity, you get access to a rich gallery of control, that's designed just for Mac, you can set up a shortcut to instantly share selected files with your friends so they never miss a moment, and with the shortcuts. You can easily link together a series of actions to design shortcuts for your specific workflow. For instance, if you're a designer, get right to work with a shortcut that opens Pinterest in one window. Affinity Photo and another, and start your favorite playlist in Apple Music, all in one click. We've weaved shortcuts throughout Mac OS, so you can run them no matter what episode, they're in Finder menu bar, spotlight. And of course you can ask Siri to run them hands free shortcuts of future of automation on Mac, and this is just the start of a multi year transition Automator will continue to be supported, and you can import Automator workflows into beginning one with shortcuts, there are more than, create, express yourself and get stuff done. Finally, we have some really big news about an app that's central to the Mac experience. So we built Safari from the very beginning to provide the best browsing experience on Mac, and it continues to blow the competition out of the water farI is the world's fastest browser it makes navigating, even the most complex websites, lightning fast, and Safari is known for its legendary power efficiency on an M one MacBook Pro, Safari, users can get up to 17 hours browsing. And of course, Safari, sets the bar for user privacy on the web, with features like privacy report, intelligent tracking prevention. Our users are doing more in the browser, than ever before, work, school, shopping, entertainment, and that often leaves them with a lot of windows and other distractions. We think using the browser should feel natural, and uncluttered. So we've reimagined the browsing area, we distilled the toolbar, then check out tabs are more compact, modern, and lightweight, and there's a completely new way to use tabs with tab groups. They allow you to easily save and manage your tabs, without closing the Tab bar. I'll hand it to Beth to show it in action.
Thanks, Greg. Let's start with Safari as gorgeous new tab design, all of my tabs are right here in the new streamlined Tab bar. One of the really cool things that we did this year is we built the search field right into the active tab, there is more space efficient than ever and I can see more of the page, I can click on the active tab to see the pages full address, and then I can search right from here, readers in the tab bar ever need it. And everything else is right here in the More menu, I check this out as I switch tabs, the tab bar takes on the color of the site that I'm viewing, so it feels like a part of the page. It looks beautiful. Next, I'm excited to tell you about tab groups tab groups are an easy and lightweight way to save your tabs and pick them back up later. I'll open the new redesigned sidebar, and I have a few tab groups here already. Each of these groups is a whole set of tabs. I use them for meal planning for news and forgive shopping here in my open tabs, I'm planning a road trip to Los Angeles, and I'm not done with my research yet, I can save these group and come back to it later. I'll click the new tab
and call this trip to LA, what's so powerful about tab groups is that they're on all my devices that
my new tab group is here. As I make changes to my chat groups, they update everywhere. I'm gonna open a bunch of tabs, and my iMac just keeps up, and if I change my current tab group is always up to date and I never miss a thing. I can't wait to share these trip ideas with my family, I can just drag this to an email and send it off. Once you start using tab groups we know you're gonna get them all the time, we made it super easy to switch from right here in a Tab bar. That's the new Safari on Mac, we didn't stop there though, back to Craig to tell you more.
Thanks Beth, when we were designing the new tab experience, we wanted to build something that works. Gently, you switch from your Mac to your iPhone or iPad on iPad, the new tabs and tab bar work just like they do on Mac tab groups are especially helpful on iPad and the instant team means you can continue a project from anywhere on iPhone. We've done something really special. We took all the thinking that went into Mac, an iPad, and push the envelope, even further. For this smaller screen size, we're introducing something that's easier to reach and maximizes the page on screen. the new top, just a tab, and it's directly under your thumb, and when you scroll the bar moves seamlessly out of the way. It's now easier and more natural to access your other tabs too. You can swipe over the tab bar to move quickly between them, or swipe up the tab bar to reveal a brand new grid view of all your tabs, plus your tab groups. When you get to the end of your tabs, you can swipe again to a new one, and the new customizable Start Page syncs with Mac, so you have the same safari experience everywhere. There's one last feature that we're really excited to share extensions Mac users love to deeply customize safari with extensions like Grammarly, honey, and momentum, and now we're bringing web extensions, iPhone and iPad, just like on Mac, you choose what websites you want extensions to be active on and developers can easily tap into an entirely new audience, because these extensions can share code with existing safari web extensions. This is a huge year for Safari, totally new tab design and tab groups simplify your browsing and Safari is more customizable than ever, with the new Start Page and extensions on iOS. Os. And with that, we have Mac OS, Monterrey. It's a fantastic release with great new features that help Mac users, Doom and ever. You can work across Mac and your other devices using universal control and AirPlay to Mac. It's easy to get productive and creative using short a totally new design for Safari, along with incredible features like share play shared with you, focus, and quick note, do more, we'd like to talk about. But first, let's get out of here.
Probably should have just taken. As I mentioned a moment ago, we've made incredible advances in Melco s, and across all of our platforms this year. These are going to be awesome for users. They also create new opportunities for developers. The heart and soul WWDC. And to tell you about the new developer features and technologies been building to help you take your apps to the next level. Here's our VP of data, Dr. Susan Prescott.
It's such a pleasure to come together with our developer community and to connect with your creative energy, fourth week, Apple engineers are going to share all kinds of exciting new technologies and features. You're going to love. And there are a few announcements that we just couldn't wait to share. Guys, it'll help you create even more incredible apps, Swift features that make the language both easier and more powerful and App Store features that will help you better connect with users. Let's start with API's and there are a lot of new API's this year, like the ones for share play that make it possible to build new audiences for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV and system level enhancements like voice isolation wide spectrum audio in portrait mode. In any video conferencing app, new API's for focus and notifications, a new Extra Large widget size for iPad. The screen time API, old apps for watch lists, new advanced rendering API's and reality kit, and we've gone even further in this release. To make it easy for all developers to create realistic 3d objects with object capture object capture is a revolutionary new API on Mac OS, rather than manually creating 3d models, which can take weeks object capture uses photogrammetry to turn a series of 2d images into photorealistic 3d objects. In just minutes, leading developers like maxeon and unity, are already using Object capture to unlock tirely new ways of creating 3d content, it's as simple as an object iPhone or iPad, then importing them into cinema 4d to create a lifelike 3d model. For the first time, developers can jaded, your preview of the model to ensure they've captured what they need, while on location and wayfarers using Object capture to develop tools for their mandate. They can use an iPhone and Mac to easily create a virtual representation of their merchandise. This will allow Wayfair users to promote their homes with AR, to make sure they choose the right product for their space. This is a massive step forward for 3d content creation, what used to be difficult and expensive part of building AR experiences in 3d scenes is now available to all developers in Mac OS Monterrey object capture, and all of the API's we've talked about today are built on this Swift programming language. Swift has made a huge impact on our app ecosystem and today the majority of the top 1000 apps are built using Swift to tell you about the improvements we're making this year. Here's Ted.
Thanks Susan. We designed swift to make it easy to create great apps. It has an approachable, modern syntax, incredible runtime performance and safety features that eliminate whole categories of programming errors, recent years we've worked with the Swift open source community to build, tons of new features, they make swift easier and more powerful. And this year, one of the biggest features we're building into Swift is concurrency concurrency is one of the most requested features for swift and it's key to building apps that are responsive to user input, while doing work in the background. Concurrency also makes it dramatically easier to write code that are parallel. So your app can take full advantage of multi core processors, without language features that simplify concurrency, you need to write a synchronous code that's hard to write, hard to understand, and hearts debug our approach to concurrency in Swift builds on the same core principles of Swift, making it easier to write fast, modern safe code with fewer mistakes. People structured concurrency deep
switch language use.
The common async await pattern, combined with a technology called actors. This means you can write code as a simple sequence of steps with actors safely isolating parallel tasks from one another. The code for concurrency goes from something complicated like this to something simple like this, that kind of power and simplicity is what Swift is all about. And we're excited to share more with you this week. Now, back to Susan.
We created Swift. Other technologies and frameworks for one reason, to help you the best possible. And the best place to discover those apps is on the App Store, to tell you about some of the exciting features we've been working on. Here's an
since the beginning, we designed the App Store to be a safe and trusted place, users can just focus on finding the right app, knowing Apple has reviewed every app to make sure it meets our high standards for security, privacy and safety. And that's why the app store now serves 600 million weekly visitors in 175 countries and regions, making it a great business opportunity both developers and an engine for innovation and growth, and Apple has now paid over $230 billion to developers, since the App Store. Today we're introducing some incredible new ways to help developers like you even more users, starting with the app product page, or be able to create multiple custom programs, just two different features of your app for different services. You can also try out different screenshots, videos, and even app icon. Users like most. These improvements, give you even more ways to tell the world about your app. It's also important to show me anything happening inside your apps. But the most popular apps are constantly introducing new content and limited like Pokemon Go fast. Film premieres like in the height. This challenges events across the entire app ecosystem, help users find the next big thing. This year, to see new ways to discover amazing events like these, we call them app events within App events for dynamic content and experiences within apps will be front end App Store. So users never miss a big moment. And this is huge for developers in be surprised, throughout the store to millions of users, whether they're brand new to the app or use it every day, you can showcase them on your Apps product page. Users can learn more sign up to be notified, or quickly join the action if it's happening now, because for events with personalized recommendations, and in search. Our expert editors will curate the best and biggest events, a new app store widget will feature upcoming right on the homescreen within App events the App Store continues to be the best place to deliver. What's happening, apps and games. Talk about what they already have event, or they're just getting started, and now I'll hand it back to Susan.
Something else we're doing is here, it's going to take after the next level, integrates the cloud with our development in a whole new way. And it's called Xcode cloud. Eight, creating an app requires multiple steps, building, testing and delivery, and a number of different tools, Xcode cloud simple workflow by bringing everything together. So as an individual developer, you can focus your energy and creative and development teams can collaborate more effectively. Here's how it works. When you commit a change code, X cloud can automatically build the app, because it's built in the cloud, your Mac is free for other tests, and for teams, everyone can see if the change introduces errors so and fix issues faster then Xcode cloud runs your automated tests in parallel, they can complete in a fraction of the time, even as they simulate running on some kind of platform. And the test results displayed in X, you can easily see what worked and fix what didn't. But yeah, this is all its tests. Cloud automatically distributed to the test box on your team, even an external beta testers with test flight. All of these essential continuous integration and delivery features are right there in Xcode, so you can work without switching tools and you stay focused on your code, Xcode cloud, the quickest, easiest way to build, test, and deliver your apps with advanced security to protect you and your projects, your source code used in a temporary build environment, and the only things Xcode stores are the products of the built in code cloud and test flight, make it easy to distribute betas, to users on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Apple Watch want X code cloud to be able to automatically distribute beta apps across all Apple platforms to that happen. We're bringing testflight to use testflight to easily test your Mac apps, including feature purchases, iCloud is incredibly powerful, and we can use it to, to build better apps faster. We'll be providing access limited beta starting today, and expanding access to the summer in fall and cloud will be available to all developers next year, provide more details on pricing and availability, all we're really excited about these announcements, and these are some of the highlights. We continue to innovate with the App Store and tools and technologies to help you do extraordinary things. And we're going to be touching on throughout the week. Now, back to Tim. But first, much better.
Take it home, Tim.
Thank you Susan. Thank you for. Thanks to all of our presenters, a big day of announcements and innovation for our users and developers, we took giant steps for all of our software platforms, we will enable you person developers to do remarkable things. Our ospc will be available as developer betas today. And each of them will have a public beta, next month. And all this incredible software will be available to all of our users. This fall, I am so excited for these new releases that will deliver products, even more powerful and more capable, they will provide new ways to enrich their lives in new tools to change the world. Hope you enjoyed today's event, and that you're excited for the week ahead, those developers who want to take a deeper dive into our announcement, had the platform State of the Union coming up later today. And we have a week before of in depth sessions and One to One labs, Apple engineers also provide pavilions daily reach other experiences to help you get the most out of the conference. Thank you for joining us. Let's have a great week.
