Episode 50 – Our First Year, WWDC 2016 Preview


Listen Later

This week's episode marks the one-year anniversary of the first episode, with both episodes offering previews of Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC).
Given the anniversary, we thought it would be fun to do a little retrospective of some of the things we've covered on the podcast over the past year, and so we made that another topic of discussion on the latest episode. There's now a permanent page on the site where you can easily see a full listing of past episodes, so you can easily browse them. But we spent some time highlighting some of our favorite episodes from the past year, as well as discussing the past year in consumer tech. Links to the episodes we mention are below in the show notes. We also added a page to the website listing all the Weekly Picks we've recommended.
If, for whatever reason, you don't feel like reminiscing with us, you can skip to 21:20, when start talking about this year's WWDC. Specifically, we talk about Siri and digital assistants in general, something Jan's been asked about a bunch in the lead up to WWDC by reporters. Secondly, we talk about iMessage and the prospects for iMessage as a platform, something we discussed in Episode 33. We also talk through iOS getting more pro features, what we might see in tvOS and watchOS, Apple Music, the App Store changes announced this week, and the fact that we're unlikely to see any new hardware announced.
As usual, you’ll find some links to related content as well as other ways to listen to the podcast on the website at podcast.beyonddevic.es.
