What to expect from Apple WWDC 2020

Tech enthusiasts eagerly awaiting the online event may see Apple revealing new iOS 14 for iPhones and iPads along with ARM chip-driven Mac desktops, among others.

There would be updates on WatchOS and MacOS software to power Apple Watch, MacBooks, iMacs and Mac Pros, too.

The biggest announcement is expected to be break up with chip-maker Intel for its Mac desktops.

Apple has reportedly been working to replace Intel chips with its own design in Macs for years and may finally announce it on Monday during its online ‘WWDC20′ developer conference. Apple’s Mac chip design initiative is codenamed ‘Kalamata’.

Processors for Macs from Apple will use similar technology to those in iPhones and iPads, but Macs would still run the macOS and not the iOS.

Apple Developer app

Ahead of the WWDC 2020, the Cupertino-based tech giant released a Mac version of its Apple Developer app. Apple initially launched the app last last year but it was only available to iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV users to date. The macOS version provides various resources from developer-related news to videos showcasing new features for Apple operating systems. Apple has redesigned the app’s Discover section to make it easier for developers to catch up on the latest stories, news, videos and more, the company.
