The much-anticipated annual event opens with a keynote address from Apple CEO Tim Cook, scheduled for 10:00 AM PT (10:30 PM IST). Ahead of the keynote, Cook shared a moment of inspiration by meeting with this year's Swift Student Challenge winners—a group of young developers selected for their creativity and skill. In a heartfelt post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Cook shared a video clip of his interaction with the students, captioning it: 'Love starting #WWDC25 with our Swift Student Challenge winners!' The Swift Student Challenge recognizes talented young coders from around the world. In 2025, 50 Distinguished Winners have been invited to Apple Park for an exclusive three-day immersive experience. The conference will not only celebrate student innovation but also spotlight Apple's upcoming software updates. Viewers around the globe can tune into the keynote via the Apple TV app, and YouTube, with replays available on demand. More than 1,000 developers and students are also gathering in person at Apple Park to mark the event's opening. Following the keynote, Apple will host its Platforms State of the Union at 1 PM PDT (June 9). This session, aimed at developers, will delve deeper into the new tools and capabilities across Apple's software platforms. The presentation will stream on the Apple Developer app, Apple's website, and YouTube. What's Coming in WWDC 2025? This year's WWDC is expected to feature significant software updates, including: iOS 19 iPadOS 19 macOS 16 watchOS 12 tvOS 19 visionOS 3 Reports suggest a visual redesign is on the cards, with frosted glass effects, layered translucency, and softer color schemes, drawing inspiration from the interface of Apple Vision Pro. Tech enthusiasts are also looking forward to updates in Apple Intelligence. With AI dominating the tech landscape, Apple is under increasing pressure to demonstrate meaningful enhancements in its ecosystem that go beyond last year's promises. Throughout the week, developers will benefit from over 100 technical sessions, group labs, and one-on-one consultations with Apple engineers. A Tribute to a Visionary While looking forward to the future, Tim Cook also took a moment to honour the past. The Apple CEO shared a moving tribute to Bill Atkinson, one of the original designers who shaped the iconic Macintosh graphical user interface. Atkinson passed away last week, and his contributions continue to influence the computing world today. Cook wrote: 'We are deeply saddened by the passing of Bill Atkinson. He was a true visionary whose creativity, heart, and groundbreaking work on the Mac will forever inspire us. Our thoughts are with his loved ones.' As the WWDC 2025 begins, the blend of honouring legacy, nurturing young talent, and launching the next generation of software underscores Apple's enduring mission: to innovate while staying rooted in its core values.
