Let’s be honest: WWDC 2025 probably won’t go down in history as an Apple’s biggest events ever, which I’ve warned in a separate article. The company should not really forge with new plans until it is completed by collecting the unpublished from last year, and the ongoing and unaddened failures from Siri and Apple Intelligence will hang over the case as a bad smell.
But even the dullest Apple event can generally be addicted to delivering a few gems … and after all it is WWDC, the second most important main note of the year. Here are the seven things I can’t wait to look at WWDC 2025:
1. An iPhone AI feature that I actually use
With an apology to Mac and Apple Watch owners, the iOS main event is at WWDC. This year’s update promises some major changes, including important accessibility features and an interface redesign that already inspires both positive and negative emotions. But a far more important change will happen under the hood.
Reports show that iOS 19 will include a new AI-driven battery preservation mode, which will analyze usage patterns to lower the power pull at times or in applications where it does not affect your experience, thereby extending the life of the battery to minimal costs. Plus, the lock screen finally shows how much time is left until your phone is fully charged. Forget Genmoji: This is how AI can actually make a difference in users’ lives.
2. Apple intelligence where it belongs
I’m a little tired of hearing about Apple Intelligence: its supposed triumphs (from Apple) and its many are missing (from everyone else). Unfortunately, this year’s WWDC is sure to have more of the same and we will have to prepare for it. But there is an aspect of Apple Intelligence in is Tightened to know more about, and that’s its delayed debut on the Apple Watch.
Pundits predicts that the Watcho’s 12 update will see Apple’s AI platform countries on Apple Watch, which I have long said is its natural home. The small screen of the clock means that the next gene messaging and voice control would be transformative rather than a nice option, while its position on the wrist makes it perfectly placed to be a virtual assistant.
So far, the most important barrier to Apple Watch, participating in the AI ​​party, has been the comparative lack of treatment power, and the new models that come in the fall are unlikely to change it. But according to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, Watcho’s 12 will see Apple Watch Outsource AI work for a nearby iPhone, which is a smart stop gap solution until hardware catches up.
3 .. Babelfish becomes a reality
Technical Industry has long been fascinated by Babel Fish, a fictional creature who in Douglas Adams’ Hitchhikers Guide Novels, sit in a person’s ear and allow them to understand any language. If only the Babel fish was real. That’s it – Sort of – thanks to wireless earplugs with live translation software.
Google has offered this combination for years: the pixel buds (or actually other earplugs paired with the Google Translate app) was capable of it back in 2017, albeit with lots of disadvantages. But we are happy to see Apple’s trials, which are expected to be launched later in the year as part of iOS 19 and an AirPods Firmware update.
Whether this feature will be available in the first versions of iOS 19 is unclear, but we would be very surprised if Apple doesn’t waste any of the details at WWDC in June.

4. The most powerful Mac ever made
WWDC is known as a software event. But when Apple decides to launch some hardware in June, it didn’t mess it around. It rolls out the big guns.
MAC Pro, Premium Deluxe offer in Apple’s Mac-Line-Up, was last updated two years ago: It was the M2 Ultra model that was announced on WWDC 2023. It’s slower than the Mac studio and not so faster than MAXXED-OUT MACBOOK PRO, so the next model has to have an M4 Ultra-Chip or something higher, Establishes the M4 Max MacBook Pro and Mac, which is about to come coming, coming to the fact that he is coming to the fact that it is coming up that it is coming up that there is coming when it is at the moment when they are getting a while that is when the top of the range. The MAC Pro is the model for providing unmatched power to the creative professional users that Apple has occasionally neglected, so it makes sense to save it to a Grand WWDC input.
MAC Pro will not be updated as often as other Apple products, and it is possible that we will have to wait until 2025. But if the M4 Ultra Mac Pro will appear on WWDC, it will immediately be the star of the show.
5. MAC’s new vision
Speaking of Mac… Apple will definitely announce MacOS 16 on WWDC 2025, and like iOS 19 it is expected to have a thorough redesigned interface. Sources suggest that Macos will take its visual signals from Vision Pro, Apple’s groundbreaking headset for mixed reality as the company seems to achieve more of a consistent UI across platforms. It will be fascinating to see how this fusion between Apple’s oldest and youngest product lines is shaking out.

6. News about New Siri
It is likely that the weakest element of Apple’s ecosystem and determined its highest profiled failure is the regrettable inaccurate voice assistant Siri. An amazing 14 years after it was launched with the iPhone 4S, Siri shows no sign of getting better and seems to be worse.
At last year’s WWDC, Apple promised to fix Siri by inserting the magic of Apple Intelligence. But the arrival of the new AI-driven Siri continues to be delayed; It did not appear in March iOS 18.4 update as expected or even in May’s iOS 18.5. Hopefully Apple has some news for us in June because Siri really needs to get better at his job.
And while we’re on the sore subject Siri we’ll appreciate some (preferably realistic) messages about the version of Siri after The new one: The “Really Modernized, conversation version”, also known as LLM Siri. New Siri should be part of iOS 18, and LLM Siri part of iOS 19, but delays connections on delays and it all keeps being pushed back. I’m glad to see these improvements, Apple, but let us know what’s going on.
7. Honesty
And it leads me to the individual thing I want the most from WWDC25: Pure, unfiltered honesty over the state of games in Cupertino. What has been going wrong since last year? Why have so many projects been delayed? And is Apple Intelligence really as far behind other AI platforms as it seems to be?
This may seem like a desperate long shot. The truth of a marketing event, what an imaginative view! But Apple has a form here. As Apple Maps suffered catastrophic teeth, Apple admitted this and apologized. When creative professionals were neglected, as I mentioned earlier, Apple admitted this and apologized. There is a chance, albeit a slim that we get some kind of mea culpa at WWDC.
Each company makes mistakes. Announcing Apple Intelligence long before it was ready, and then selling iPhone 16 handsets from the back of features that have not launched when the iPhone 17 comes out was a big one, but it doesn’t have to ruin Apple’s reputation. Curing is honesty. Explain what went wrong and why. Then be completely transparent about the features that will actually be ready in time for the iPhone 17. Trust will return – but not if spin and bluster continue.
It’s my wish list for WWDC 2025. Join June 9 to see how much Apple delivers and to read our coverage of all messages.
