Apple has announced it will host its 29th annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in San Jose from June 4-8 June at The McEnery Convention Center.

WWDC brings together the world’s most creative developer community every year to share unique perspectives and learn about the future of Apple’s breakthrough products and services.

The conference provides an opportunity for millions of developers to learn more about how to create new experiences across Apple’s platforms for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV, Mac and HomePod.

A broad range of robust developer APIs — including SiriKit, HomeKit, HealthKit, GymKit, MusicKit, ResearchKit and Core ML — give developers new ways to help users take command of everything from their health and homes, to how they get around, shop and learn.

Last year at WWDC Apple debuted The HomePod, a new iMac Pro, iOS 11, a 10.5-inch iPad Pro, macOS High Sierra, watchOS 4, and ARKit.

This year there is expected to be more on the future of macOS and iOS, and possibly cheaper iPads and MacBooks that have been rumoured recently.

There are also reports Apple will be launching new universal apps that work across iPhones, iPads, and Macs. Bloomberg also previously reported that Apple will bring its Animoji characters to the iPad, possibly through a new model of the tablet that has a Face ID camera.

Developers can apply for tickets now through March 22 at 10 a.m. PDT via the WWDC website (developer.apple.com/wwdc/tickets). Tickets are issued through a random selection process, and developers will be notified of application status by March 23.
