More Apple foldiness.
The first beta build of iOS 27 is dropping hints of Apple’s first foldable, just like the macOS 27 beta did a few hours ago.
WWDC 2026
Each year at WWDC, Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference, the company showcases what’s next for its biggest platforms — iOS, macOS, iPadOS, and more — and what developers can do to make apps and services for them.
Siri is better, but its limitations are much more obvious on a Mac than an iPhone.

AI health coach fatigue is creeping in, and it’s doing the concept more harm than good.

It’s basic, but ‘it works’ is a big deal.

AirPods are getting a custom EQ.
As part of its upcoming iOS 27 update, AirPods are finally getting a custom equalizer. The new feature will let you adjust how AirPods represent any audio, with a custom profile where you can adjust the lows, mids, and highs. Previously, AirPods have had a fixed sound profile provided by Apple, so this new option gives AirPods owners a lot more flexibility.

Apple reportedly plans Grammarly-like AI writing help for your iPhone.
At Bloomberg, Mark Gurman has more AI-related rumors ahead of WWDC, saying that, along with a reworked version of Siri, Apple plans to build Grammarly-like grammar checking and suggestions into the next iPhone and iPad updates (hopefully, without using our AI slopplegangers for an “expert review”).
Other changes include a Shortcuts upgrade that builds automations based on whatever requests you describe, and an AI wallpaper generator similar to what Samsung and Google already offer.

Apple’s shiny WWDC 26 invites are going out.
While Google’s I/O developer event is about to start tomorrow, Apple’s own event is scheduled to begin on June 8th, as it just reminded potential attendees.
Apple event invites can sometimes tease what we’ll see, but your guess is as good as mine as to what these visuals might mean.

Here’s Joanna Stern’s full interview with Craig and Joz.
In addition to their discussion of what happened with AI Siri, Craig Federighi and Greg Joswiak talked about how an Apple Watch might fit into Apple’s AI device plans, if Apple is working on a foldable (“who’s to say?”), and if iPhone prices will go up due to tariffs (“nothing to announce”). It’s worth watching.

Siri was mostly missing in Apple’s AI updates this week.
The Verge’s new senior AI reporter, Hayden Field, noticed we didn’t hear the name of Apple’s assistant very much during the WWDC 2025 keynote on Monday.
Even as presenters discussed opening up Apple Intelligence to third-party developers and new AI features for other apps, Siri was conspicuous in its absence. So what does that mean for the future of Apple’s AI efforts?
Apple won’t give us a Mac-powered tablet. But it may have finally done the next best thing.

Big changes are in store across Apple’s platforms, from a design refresh to major multitasking improvements for the iPad.

Which WWDC 2025 announcement was our favorite?
If you ask The Verge reporters who were there liveblogging Apple’s keynote today, the answer is (mostly) Spotlight.

watchOS 26 adds a new ‘wrist flick’ gesture to quickly dismiss notifications.
At WWDC 2025, Apple just showed off a new update coming to its wearables this fall.
Once watchOS 26 is available, Apple Watch Series 9, Apple Watch Series 10, and Apple Watch Ultra 2 wearers will be able to dismiss notifications, silence times and alarms, and ignore calls just by turning their wrist over and back like this (below), in addition to the existing double tap gesture.
