Updated onJune 7with the latest information,
Music, Apple TV, iOS 8.4, etc….
The developer conference
from Apple, theWWDC 2015, stands fromJune 8 to 12
next. Like every year, it is an opportunity for Apple to put
moving forward the software part of its activity. This is how iOS 9 and OS
10.11 should be presented for the very first time, but they should only
not be alone.
To attend, the developers had no choice but to go
put back at random since the allocation of places was done this year
again, by drawing lots. While registrations are closed,
the conference took on its colors, the question now is to know
what we can expect from this WWDC.
Here is a little outlook on the most likely announcements during
of the launch conference tomorrow
Next Monday June 8 at 7 p.m.:
IOS 9 and OS X 10.11 to consolidate the basics
We don't know everything this new version should bring.
Nevertheless,several
recent rumorsreported that this year it would be
"consolidate the existing".
The emphasis should therefore be placed onimproved stability and
the speed of the systemrather than an avalanche of new products.
Although we are not immune to one or two good surprises like
the arrival of abrand new Siri inspired by that of Apple
watch?
As usual, Apple should give an outline of the new features
and share in particularthose which are the most important so that the
developers can start adapting their applications. The
Beta version will be delivered shortly after. It is rumored that this year, the
beta iOS 9
could be open to the public(or by invitation), but not immediately
after the conference, more common in the summer.
Recently, we learned more about Apple's plans that could
arrive with iOS 9. This is how the font used by the system would be
modified to
adopt that of the Apple Watch. This would be valid for both iOS and
OS X.
Besides this, Plans is at the center of several rumors which confirm
the arrival oftransport in
communin the Apple app. Unfortunately, this would only concern
6
citiesin the world.
Let's finish with iOS 9 anda few
rumors and indiscretionsloose like a'home' app dedicated to
HomeKit. The first accessories are in factarrived on the
market this week, just in time!
A Google Now assistant called 'proactive', and a
possible availability for older machines likeThe iPhone 4s and
the iPad mini.are also among the possibilities considered.
at the same time, we asked you the question of expectations for iOS 9, the
returns inthe comments
of this article.
For OS
improvement and optimization of the existing
Music and television
We've been talking about it for months following the acquisition of Beats Audio by Apple, the
WWDC should be an opportunity for Cupertino to launch very seriously into
the adventure of music streaming. On the bases put in place
parBeats, Apple should therefore reveal the terms of its
offer subject to agreements having been signedon time
while theyseem
continue.
According to the hypotheses put forward, it should be asubscription
monthly of around ten dollars(euros therefore) giving access to
iTunes catalog and fully integrated intothe music app
reworked for the occasion. Partnerships withartists
available exclusivelyon Apple's platform.
The information
the most recent ones were seen here: free discovery offer,
iTunes radio, etc… The
Kanye West's next albumlike David Guetta to play the role of DJ
are apparently being considered.
A versioniOS 8.4is planned and will be
available before the end of June, in order to allow the service to start
before the arrival of iOS 9 in September.
The CEO of Sony Musicconfirmed this
starting this Sunday at midday!
In the process, the name of the service became almost official:
Apple
Music
If it will be about music,the TV could also be
honor.
Here too it would be an offer with subscription, probably limited to
US, in which Apple would offer a bouquet of around twenty channels
watch… on Apple TV. But be careful, a risk with this type of offer is
that it is not open in all countries initially... It is still the
case for iTunes Radio for example.
Apple TV finally renewed?
For several years, almost every conference has predicted a
renewal of the Apple TV.Will this time be the right one?
?
In any case, the rumors were also there until recently,
always so insistent.
First, during the Apple Watch launch conference, Apple
lowered the price of the previous version. This could therefore suggest that the
next version is coming. For this 4th Apple TV, all speculations are
bet. We are thus talking about anew
touch screen remote control, but also and above all the arrival
a dedicated App Store(the games on the TV would then
the Apple TV a home games console!) andSiri.
The Apple TV is now at the center of Apple's connected home via
HomeKit like
we saw it in this “practical” article. She could get richd’applications
and an improved remote control(tactile).
Unfortunately, while Apple was planning to reveal the 2015 version Apple TV
for tomorrow Monday June 8, the NY Times understands thatthese plans were
staggered. The decision was reportedly made in mid-May.
Watch OS and native apps
Let's also not forget the Apple Watch which, even if it has only just been
going out, should also get a share of the new developments. Indeed, as
for OS X, or iOS,WatchOS will receive its first update
size .
This will offer support forreal native apps,
in addition to the remote apps that ion knows today. Advantage: the
speed of execution and access to the watch's sensors!
One more thing
Not sure that Apple has planned more and that we should anticipate surprises.
But if there is already all this, it will already be a very nice conference!

conferencelive with the iPhon.fr team:
