Apple kicked off its weeklong Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2024) event today with the customary keynote at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT.
But the biggest news came with the reveal of Apple Intelligence, the company’s big entrance into the competitive AI market.
You can watch watch the archive over on Apple’s events page, or you can watch the YouTube archive right here and via the embed below.
The latest reports have put a name to Apple’s AI efforts: Apple Intelligence, along with the caveat that not all recent Apple devices will be able to use the new system.
And you can bet that many of iOS 18’s AI features will make their way to macOS 15, as well.
The latest version is MacOS Sequoia.
Notifications on Mac bring up iPhone mirror mode, and iPhone audio comes through the Mac as well — but the paired iPhone stays locked.
Elsewhere, MacOS Sequoia introduces automatic window tiling, and a presenter preview mode for video conferencing with a built-in background replacement.
On the gaming front, Apple announced Game Porting Toolkit 2, the newest version of its game porting toolkit.
The MacOS Sequoia beta will be available this month, with final releases to come this fall.
Developers who want to show off apps, or anyone whose iPhone is currently out of reach, will appreciate a new Continuity feature arriving on the new version of macOS Sequoia.
The new OS, announced at WWDC 2024, will allow users to mirror their iPhone screen directly on their Mac and even control it, like swiping through pages on the Home Screen and launching apps via the Mac’s trackpad.
In addition, as Apple showed, it would make it easier to use Mac apps and iPhone apps alongside each other.
When using the feature, users will be able to use the Mac keyboard to enter text and other input into iPhone apps.
Plus, iPhone notifications will appear alongside Mac notifications when it’s mirrored, and users will also be able to interact with them and take action.
Passwords were available from the Settings app on your Mac or iPhone.
Now, the company is introducing the Passwords app at WWDC 2024.
It will be available with the next major releases of iOS, macOS and visionOS, that is iOS 18, macOS Sequoia and visionOS 2.
As a reminder, iCloud Passwords already support shared passwords, verification codes and a note field for every password entry.
This new app will make it easier to get started and think about using iCloud Passwords to store your sensitive information.
