iPhone Life - Best Apps, Top Tips, Great Gear

Apple introduced a slew of updates to watchOS during the 2024 WWDC Keynote on June 10. This year's keynote focused primarily on how Apple will incorporate AI into its software. However, the Apple Watch seems to be fairly immune to these new AI features. Instead, Apple appears to be staying true to the device’s fitness tracker origins and honing in on the convenience of a smartwatch.

Apple held its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) keynote on June 10 and showed us not only what all the new Apple operating systems have in store but also a peek into the controversial world of AI. We learned iOS 18 will bring us revamped Home Screen options, new messaging capabilities, and a completely redesigned Photos app; iPadOS 18 is finally getting a calculator and will quietly improve your handwriting; and watchOS 11 will offer more tracking than ever. Mac’s new operating system is named after the mighty sequoias and will sync with your iPhone better than before, while visionOS sees its first update. Let’s dive into everything announced at the 2024 WWDC keynote.
