What to expect at WWDC 2020

Typically, Apple during the WWDC event showcases the company's upcoming software developments. But in the last few years, we've seen the company unveiling its new hardware, such as the HomePod and the Mac Pro at WWDC in 2017 and 2019, respectively.

This year, Apple is expected to launch its new iMac desktop. Rumours have indicated that the iMac 2020 will carry T2 coprocessor and AMD Navi GPU.

Software updates

Additionally, Apple is expected to announce new versions of iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS at WWDC 2020. A report recently tipped that Apple's iOS operating system that runs on the iPhone and iPod touch will be renamed to iPhoneOS. Similarly, the next-generation iOS 14 or iPhoneOS 14 is rumoured to bring new AR features to several iPhone units. Apple may introduce a new AR app called 'Gobi' with this software iteration.

We can also expect the same AR features to arrive on iPad models with the latest iPadOS 14. Both iPhone and iPad models might get the support for Apple AirTags, speculated to debut later this year.

Apple Watch models are further speculated to get new updates with the next-generation watchOS 7. Reports have indicated that the company is planning to upgrade parental controls with the new WatchOS iteration.
