One Week to Go: Apple Gets Ready for WWDC 2026 With YouTube Placeholder

We're just a week out from the 2026 Worldwide Developers Conference, and Apple's keynote will take place on Monday, June 8 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time or 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Ahead of the event, Apple has launched its WWDC 2026 YouTube event placeholder.


Apple's YouTube page has a "Notify me" button that lets you set a reminder for the keynote in your local time. It's a useful way to make sure you're ready to watch when the event happens because you'll get a notification ahead of when the livestream begins.

The WWDC 2026 keynote will be streamed on YouTube, on the Apple Events page, and in the Apple TV app. We'll also have coverage on MacRumors.com for those who are unable to watch.

At this year's event, Apple will introduce the latest versions of its software, including iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27, and visionOS 27. The main focus will be on Siri and the major AI updates coming to Apple's personal assistant.

‌Siri‌ is going to be much smarter, with chatbot-like capabilities and a dedicated ‌Siri‌ app. We have details on what to expect in our iOS 27 roundup.

Looks like we're getting new HomePods with the new Siri reveal.

HomePod mini in every colour have suddenly sold out at all Apple Stores nearby. Pickup availability has slipped to post-WWDC, some colours as far away as July 16th.

What a do-over of both Siri and HomePod this will be. I don't know how they thought either one of those things was good enough all those years ago, let's hope they do a lot better this time.
Siri was actually good for a while. But somehow Apple managed to make it increasingly worse after it hit a pinnacle. It's now comedically bad — I really do think Steve would be apoplectic at how Tim Cook has neglected Siri to the point of this embarrassment.

HomePod has always been fantastic if you consider what it is: it's never been an assistant nor was it meant to be, it's just a fantastic sounding speaker, and it really is and continues to be.
