This week the technological calendar has an event that no Apple fan can miss. This Monday, June 8, the Worldwide Developers Conference, WWDC 2026, begins, the most anticipated event of the year for the community of developers and enthusiasts of the apple ecosystem. From Apple Park and in a free online format, the company led by Tim Cook will take the stage to show the future of its platforms, and everything indicates that artificial intelligence will be the main protagonist of a conference that promises much more than system updates.

The keynote starts at 10 a.m. (Pacific time) and you can follow it live through the Apple Developer app, Apple's official website and its YouTube channel. There is no excuse for not being aware of everything that is coming.

What's new does the new Siri with Google technology bring?

Yes, you read that right. The big announcement that everyone is waiting for is the complete redesign of Siri, an assistant that for years accumulated criticism for falling far behind the competition. But this 2026, history seems to be changing.

A few months ago, Apple and Google sealed a multi-year agreement that allows the Cupertino company to use Gemini artificial intelligence models and Google's cloud infrastructure as the basis for its upcoming Apple Intelligence features, including a completely revamped version of Siri. The alliance between two of the most influential giants in Silicon Valley opened the doors to a new era for Apple's voice assistant.

According to leaks reported by Bloomberg, the new Siri is expected to be able to understand the context of a conversation, perform tasks in multiple steps, and move fluidly between apps and services in a way that the current Siri simply cannot do. But that's not all: the launch of an independent Siri app is also anticipated that would seek to compete directly with ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini itself. In addition, there is talk of a function to schedule the automatic deletion of conversations, similar to what certain messaging apps already do.

What are the new Apple Intelligence features coming at WWDC 2026?

Beyond Siri, Apple Intelligence is preparing to take an important leap in this edition of WWDC. Artificial intelligence will no longer be something specific but will become the common thread of the entire experience on iPhone, iPad, Mac and more.

One of the most striking new features has to do with the camera and the Photos app. A new “Visual Intelligence” section is expected to arrive within the camera, with a mode dedicated to Siri that will be placed next to the usual options such as Photo, Video or Portrait. This feature would use Google Image Search to accurately identify objects, which represents a pretty deep integration between the two ecosystems. In Photos, we anticipate the ability to automatically remove objects, receive intelligent scene recommendations, and edit images simply by describing in natural language the changes you want to make.

Another announcement that generates a lot of expectation is the possible integration of AI agents with the App Store. According to The Information, Apple would introduce a system where agents could book restaurants, manage daily tasks, edit documents or even control smart home devices, all without the user having to open a separate app.

Image Playground will also receive major improvements, with higher quality image generation, more art styles, better consistency between characters, and richer editing controls. There is even talk of a feature that would suggest personalized Genmojis based on user interactions, and the possibility of generating AI wallpapers based on the mood or theme you choose.

What operating systems and new features does iOS 27 and the rest of the ecosystem introduce?

WWDC 2026 is also the official showcase where Apple will present iOS 27, macOS 27, iPadOS 27, watchOS and tvOS, with stability improvements and deeper integration of artificial intelligence across all its platforms. The AI ​​updates are expected to be transversal and touch everyday tools such as Mail, Notes and photo editing.

A small surprise that could also come with this edition is a renewal of Apple Wallet. There is talk of a feature to split expenses among friends or family by photographing a receipt and automatically generating payment requests, as well as an option to create digital passes from physical movie tickets, concerts or gym memberships. Simple, but very useful for everyday use.

As if all this were not enough, Apple has also previewed accessibility improvements that will arrive at the end of the year, including updates to VoiceOver, the improved Magnifier with Apple Intelligence, automatic subtitles for videos and a new personalized reading experience called Accessibility Reader.

The pressure on Apple for this WWDC 2026 is real. Two years of promises about Apple Intelligence that failed to materialize and the accumulated criticism about Siri turned this event into something more than a developers conference. For Apple, Monday is not just a keynote. It's an exam.
