As you may know Apple held it's World Wide Developer's Conference (WWDC) Recently. I made some predictions about what the would see at the keynote announcement. Let's recap my predictions and some of the other cool stuff announced at this year's WWDC.
We will see a new music service
CHECK: The new Music service will launch this month.
MISS:
No video streaming service
CHECK: Therewas NO new video service announced at WWDC.
No new TV
CHECK: I don't expect a new TV until Apple can revolutionize content delivery.
Native apps for watch
CHECK: The things that are coming in watchOS2 are awesome!
Possibly native apps for TV
MISS: This was a shot in the dark, honestly.
iOS 9
CHECK: No-brainer, right. This version of iOS is huge for iPad. It brings split screen multitasking to the iPad.
An improved spotlight search
An improved Siri
Something akin to Google Now
CHECK, CHECK, CHECK: Apple announced Intelligence and it is awesome. It's location aware and it will search inside other apps. This is a huge. I was a big spotlight fan. If Intelegence brings the results as promised I will continue to be.
OS X 10.11
CHECK: OS X 10.11 is namedEl Capitan and it brings some great new features.
Refresh for Mac Mini
Refresh for Mac Pro
MISS: It has been over 240 days since the Mac Mini release, and over 540 days since the Mac Pro release so it was worth speculating that they would be released.1
