Apple schedules WWDC for June, promises AI-powered Siri overhaul

Apple officially announced its Worldwide Developers Conference will run the week of June 8, 2026. The company is signaling major updates to Siri powered by advanced AI capabilities.

WWDC is Apple’s annual developer conference where the company typically previews new software and tools for its platforms. The June timing is consistent with Apple’s recent conference schedules.

Siri, Apple’s voice assistant, is expected to receive the biggest spotlight this year. The company has been working to catch up to competitors like OpenAI and Google on AI features, and a revamped Siri with more sophisticated language understanding could be a centerpiece of the event.

Apple hasn’t disclosed exactly what AI advancements will debut beyond Siri improvements. Developers attending WWDC will likely get early access to new APIs and frameworks to build on these capabilities into their own apps.
