Apple stock (AAPL) hit an all-time high today, topping $183.49, ahead of today’s WWDC keynote where it is expected to announce iOS 17, new Macs, and its first mixed reality headset device.

Apple stock has rebounded significantly this year, up 46% off lows as investors digest easing inflation and recessionary fears, as well as general bullishness around the tech sector. The company’s market cap is once again approaching the $3 trillion level, a milestone never-before-seen for a public company.

Apple’s annual developer conference kicks off today, June 5 at 10 am PT / 1 pm ET. Follow along for how to watch the WWDC23 keynote with several options including right in this post below, how to set a reminder, what to expect, and more.

Apple’s reputation is rated No. 10 in a new poll of the best-known US brands, while social networks Meta and Twitter come in the bottom 10 – not far ahead of The Trump Organization’s last place.

Poll company Harris has been using the same methodology for 24 years now, asking a large, nationally representative sample of Americans to name the two brands they consider to have the best reputation, and the two they consider to have the worst …

There are very mixed views as to whether the Apple headset and its successors can be the device to transform AR/VR from a niche interest to a mass-market product. But a report today says that those working within the sector firmly believe that it can.

Oculus founder Palmer Lucky said last month that the Apple headset is “so good,” and others in the business are said to be “jubilant” at today’s announcement …

The Apple Store is down — as is tradition — ahead of Apple hardware and software announcements coming later today as part of WWDC 2023.

We are expecting several new Macs to be announced, including a 15-inch M2 MacBook Air and maybe a M2 Apple Silicon update to the Mac Studio and a status update on the mysterious Mac Pro. But the big hardware announcement of the day is the final unveiling of the long-awaited and much-rumoured Apple XR (virtual and augmented reality) headset.

The Writers’ Guild of America is capitalizing on the media attention surrounding Apple today and its WWDC announcements by planning leafletting protests at several Apple Stores, including the Apple Park Visitor Center.

As the writers’ strike enters its second month without any sign of a deal, the group is now ramping up campaigns against individual studios. This includes Apple because of its Apple TV+ original content division.

Apple’s seasonal Back to School deals promotion is expected to start later this week, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

The Apple Store Back to School deal usually includes a bundling of a $50-$150 gift card with the purchase of an eligible Mac, iPad, or other Apple device.

Apple’s preparation for WWDC 2023 is in full swing ahead of tomorrow morning’s keynote. New drone footage from above Apple Park today showcases one big thing Apple has in store for this year’s festivities: a special demo area reportedly dedicated to its forthcoming Reality Pro headset.

Ahead of WWDC officially kicking off tomorrow, Apple has started gifting in-person developers a swag bag to commemorate the occasion. The goodies are being dolled out to developers when they register for the event and pick up their badges at Apple’s Infinite Loop campus.

As I sit in the Apple Park Visitor Center ahead of tomorrow’s WWDC keynote, I realized there is one last-minute iOS 17 feature request I want to make. In the era of bigger phone screens – and rumors that phone screens are about to get even bigger – it’s long overdue that Apple adds some sort of split-screen multitasking to the iPhone.

WWDC 2023 is just a day away, and it could be Apple’s biggest and most important event in a decade. At WWDC this year, Apple is expected to introduce a major update for iPhone users with iOS 17 and a redesigned interface for Apple Watch users with watchOS 10. Most notable of all, however, is the expected announcement of the Reality Pro headset with AR and VR features, plus a new xrOS software platform.

WWDC 2023 is less than one day away, and the anticipation for Apple’s announcements is higher than ever. Ahead of the kickoff keynote on Monday morning, some last-minute rumors and tidbits have emerged. Head below for the latest on iOS 17, watchOS 10, the Apple Reality Pro headset, and more.

Believe it or not, iOS 17 is imminent and will be announced at WWDC on June 5. This represents Apple’s biggest software update for iPhone users, and it’s usually packed full of new features and changes. Read on as we round up what the rumors currently say about iOS 17 new features and more.

WWDC 2023 is so close, I can see it from my house. What better way to kill time than think about last-minute feature requests for iOS 17 and macOS 14? You can also read about the features I thought Apple Watch would have before watchOS 10 – custom tones, anyone?

watchOS 10 is just a few days away, and the update sounds like a big deal for big Apple Watch screens. A new widget overlay and apps optimized for Apple Watch Ultra? Let’s go!

Not much else has been rumored for watchOS 10, however, and that’s probably because the Apple Watch software is fairly mature now. Turns out you can knock out a lot of great features in nine years. That’s had me thinking about some rather old feature requests that have never materialized – features I really thought we’d have by now.
