Apple’s WWDC 2017 keynote kicks off on Monday at 10:00 am PDT where it is widely expected to unveil iOS 11, the hotly anticipated next generation mobile operating system for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, macOS 10.13, the next major update for Macs, watchOS 4 and tvOS 11.
There have also been rumors that Apple may launch new products such as the Siri Speaker, to take on Amazon Echo and Google Home, and updated MacBooks. However, based on the massive leak from yesterday, we have some doubts about the hardware announcements.
The good news is that Apple has announced that it will be live streaming the event, so you can watch the WWDC 2017 Keynote on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows or Android device. If you need help, then you can follow the instructions below.
