The event will be accessible online and will showcase updates to the software powering iPhones, iPads, and other Apple devices. Apple also stated that some developers and students will be invited to attend in person at Apple Park on the opening day.

Investors closely follow the conference, as product enhancements revealed during the event could help Apple attract new customers. Smartphone makers such as Samsung and Xiaomi are competing for a larger market share by integrating artificial intelligence features into their devices and investing in low-end models.

At WWDC 2023, Apple introduced AI-enabled features, including tools for rewriting emails and summarising inboxes. Recently, the company announced that some AI improvements to its voice assistant, Siri, will be delayed until 2026, after previously indicating a 2025 release. Apple did not provide a reason for the delay.

The company said it will share additional details about the conference through the Apple Developer app and the WWDC25 website.
