Apple has set WWDC 2026 for June 8-12, with the keynote on June 8 at 10 am PT. The announcement comes just one day before Google I/O, a timing that reads like a deliberate attempt to share the spotlight.

Details include the main keynote revealing new Apple platform updates, viewable on YouTube, the Apple website, and the TV app. Following the keynote, the Platforms State of the Union offers a deeper dive into new features and APIs.

The event will also feature developer sessions, labs, design awards, and the Swift Student Challenge. While Apple's event is a major annual fixture, the immediate tech world's attention is fixed on Google's showcase tomorrow, where Android XR, Android 17, and Gemini Intelligence are expected to take center stage.
