Apple's WWDC 2016 keynote begins at 10.30 pm IST on Monday, June 13. The company is expected to announce several big updates to its software at the event. If you can't watch the live stream, our live blog above is all you need for to-the-second updates.

The biggest announcements are likely to be related to iOS 10, the upcoming version of Apple's operating system for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. The Photos app is likely to get upgrades and we may also see some design changes.

The other major announcement could be related to Siri. Apple could allow third-party apps to integrate Siri into their platforms. This could allow you to ask Siri to send messages via WhatsApp, among other things. Siri could also arrive on OS X, making it accessible via Macs.

If you use Apple Music, you might be pleased to know that Apple is likely to announce some kind of a revamp. Whether it will improve the dreaded iTunes app remains to be seen. The social network within Apple Music - Connect - could get less prominence too.

OS X's name could be changed to macOS, which could allign it with how other Apple operating systems are spelled - iOS, tvOS, and watchOS being some examples.

The final big rumour is that iMessage could come to Android. If that happens, then it could be good news for those who'd like to use Apple's services on other platforms.

On the hardware front, rumours hint that a new version of Apple Watch could be announced along with an upgraded Thunderbolt display. As always you can follow the live blog to see exactly what Apple announces, as soon as it's announced.
