Apple WWDC Live Blog: All the Updates, as They Happen
Skip to main content
Follow our WWDC 2025 live blog for all of the updates coming to iOS, macOS, watchOS, and more.
Welcome to WIRED's live coverage of Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference. The WWDC25 keynote will begin at 10 am Pacific, 1 pm Eastern, and 6 pm British Summer Time.
It's a livestreamed event, and you can watch it right here on this page, or open the video feed in its own tab; Apple is streaming the video on its developer website and on its developer-focused YouTube channel.
WWDC is Apple's annual event for its global network of software developers. The company uses the keynote to announce all of the changes coming to the software that powers iPhones, Macs, Apple Watches, and the rest of Apple's hardware. It also announces changes coming to the cloud services it provides, from iCloud and Messages to Siri and Apple Intelligence. It's basically one big news dump for everything in the world of Apple software.
On occasion, the company will sneak in a surprise and use the WWDC keynote to announce something like a new hardware or software platform; 2023's event was when we first learned about Apple Vision Pro. But this year, we're only expecting software announcements—just bits, no atoms.
Read Reece Rogers' preview of the show for a full look at what to expect from WWDC 2025.
Once the keynote is underway, we'll post all of the important updates here on this live blog. We'll tell you release dates, point out new features, and note what's missing. We'll also have some analysis from our expert reporters who are either attending WWDC or watching from afar. Most of us have been covering Apple for well over a decade, so we'll be able to offer some unique insights about what's being shown during the presentation.
We'll kick off live coverage around a half an hour before the keynote is scheduled to start. So come back at 9:30 am PDT (12:30 pm EDT, and 5:30 pm in the UK). You'll see the live blog refresh, and the text on this page will be replaced by live updates. Get ready for a great WWDC.

At $120 off, the most comfortable noise-canceling headphones are now at a comfortable price
One of the best things about wearing noise-canceling headphones is the great deal of comfort they bring when in loud, chaotic environments. However, they need to really fit around your head to get that seal, which can lead to some comfort issues. If you're the type that wants to float away into your music or studies, then the Sonos Ace are your absolute best bet, and they are the headphones we consider to be the overall best noise-canceling headphones for comfort. Unfortunately, they're usually $449, the same price as the brand new Sony WH-1000XM6. Now, however, in a deal you can find at any major retailer, they're discounted by $120, making them just $329. Tap the appropriate button below to make your purchase or keep reading to see just how comfortable the Sonos Ace are, and learn about the special link they have with the best soundbar Sonos makes. Why you should buy the Sonos Ace Looking through our guide to the best headphones with noise-canceling you might expect the Sonos Ace to be the lightest of them all, considering they're considered the most comfortable. At 11 ounces, however, they are not even close to the 8.8 ounces that multiple noise-cancellers are down to. It all comes down to excellent padding and what our Sonos Ace review will remind you is a delicate balance between clamping force and pressure. Your ears will stay cool, not stuffy, while wearing these headphones, too. And while our review says that the area where the Sonos Ace 'truly shine' is comfort and simplicity, it's also worth pointing out their one true special feature. (That they have a good transparency mode, tactile controls, and a 30 hour battery life shouldn't surprise you at this price.) They have a TV Audio Swap feature with select Sonos soundbars, such as the Sonos Arc or Sonos Arc Ultra. This feature takes the full-on Dolby Atmos surround sound and spatial audio of your soundbar and ports it to your headset — perfect for when you notice the spouse or little one nodding off on the couch. We're not sure how long the Sonos Ace are going to be $120 off, making them $329 instead of $449, but we're happy to see the deal while it lasts. This is a deal that just about every retailer is taking advantage of, so you should be able to take your pick based on your memberships, gift cards, or other reasons — just tap the appropriate button below to shop. If the deal is off, or the Sonos Ace aren't to your liking, check out these other fresh headphone deals for more great offers.

Apple's AI-infused Siri may not show up until spring 2026
The new version of Siri that was demoed alongside Apple Intelligence might not be released until Spring 2026, Bloomberg reports. Apple officially delayed Siri's release to some time "in the coming year" back in March. The new Siri could be included in a planned iOS 26.4 update next year, which Bloomberg writes will likely arrive in March. Apple announced the smarter and more personal version of Siri at WWDC 2024 over a year ago now, and nearly two years before this hypothetical Spring 2026 release date. The company could demo the updated AI assistant again at its iPhone event in the fall or even release the new Siri early, but timing reportedly remains up in the air. Apple's proposed update to Siri is supposed to give the company's aging voice assistant the authority to take action inside of apps and understand the content and context of your screen. The company's demos showed off Siri referencing emails for flight information and embedding photos in documents, all on its own, as evidence of how much more capable the assistant could be. In a recent interview with The Wall Street Journal , Apple executives attribute the delay of the new Siri to it simply not being up to the company's standards. Internally, Bloomberg writes that there's also disagreement between Apple's marketing and engineering teams as to who is really at fault. The company shouldn't have hyped up the new Siri at WWDC 2024 or built an ad campaign around features that might not ship (Apple's pulled its Siri ads in March). But the engineering team may have been misleading as to how ready the assistant really was. As testament to how careful Apple is being now, its focus on AI at WWDC 2025 was far more muted. The closest the company got to touching on some of the magic of the new Siri was the updated version of Spotlight that's coming in macOS 26, which can leverage the same App Intents framework Siri is supposed to use to perform select actions in apps, like sending a text in Messages without having to open the app.

Seattle's Allen Institute launches ‘moonshot' to create new approach to cell biology research

(Allen Institute Image) Human cells, like the people they create, are dynamic and complex. And while researchers can create images and videos of how they move, organize and change their properties, it's hard to efficiently and accurately describe all that's happening. So a 75-person team at Seattle nonprofit Allen Institute is embarking on a 10-year project called CellScapes to devise a new language using mathematics to capture these essential processes. 'This is a new way of approaching very fundamental cell biology,' Ru Gunawardane, executive director and vice president of the Allen Institute for Cell Science, told GeekWire. 'We want to combine math and biophysical modeling, which are things that people are doing right now, but in a siloed way in very different systems.' Ru Gunawardane, executive director and vice president of the Allen Institute for Cell Science. (Allen Institute Photo) The Allen Institute was founded more than 20 years ago by the late Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen and his sister Jody Allen to dive into challenging problems in the biosciences. Previous efforts at multiple institutions have created numerical systems for understanding biological processes. That includes BayesSpace, a computational tool that produces data on gene expression in mixed cell types that developed researchers at the Fred Hutch Cancer Center. The Allen Institute has engineered modeling for organelles, which are the various machines packed inside cells that make proteins, produce energy and perform other key operations. 'The exciting thing is that we are trying … to bring different disciplines together,' Gunawardane said, 'because data is everywhere — but how do you make sense out of that data?' The CellScapes researchers are working with human stem cells, which are cells that don't yet have a set identity as, say, a skin or liver cell. The hope is through analysis and experimentation they'll devise mathematics that describe the cell's behavior, ultimately allowing them to predict and manipulate what the cells do. A primary goal would be to use these tools to unravel mysteries such as the intermediate steps to developing cancer, and ultimately discover new cell therapies. 'It's a lot like astronomy and going from 'which planet is that dot in the sky' to 'what are the laws of motion that describe all moving objects?'' said Wallace Marshall, professor of biochemistry and biophysics at the University of California, San Francisco, and a CellScapes advisor, in a statement. The Allen Institute seen from Dexter Yard. (GeekWire File Photo / Charlotte Schubert) The Allen Institute will make its data and innovations in the space publicly available, Gunawardane said, and expects to collaborate with researchers at outside institutions. The research team includes software engineers, computational biologists, program managers and others. There is no set budget for the decade-long effort, and the CellScapes team is simultaneously pursuing three projects that are part of the broader initiative. The effort already has a scientific paper accepted by the journal Nature that will be published in coming months. It's an exciting time, Gunawardane said. 'I also feel a huge responsibility,' she said, 'because Paul [Allen] is not alive anymore, but our work is his legacy, and he asked us to break the code of the cell. And in a way, the code is very complicated — it's more like a program, the cellular program. 'So I feel like we are now actually at the brink,' she said, 'of knowing maybe how to approach that.'
