In this podcast, Jon Westfall and Todd Ogasawara discussed Apple's latest Worldwide Developers Conference announcements, noting a significant "tone shift" towards developers. While consumer-oriented features for iPhones, iPads, and macOS devices were unveiled, the speakers highlighted Apple's clear targeting of developers. A key takeaway for developers was the ability to integrate Apple's on-device Large Language Model (LLM) into their applications without incurring API fees or requiring a data connection. Jon Westfall, who is developing an app that creates tours from tagged photos, plans to leverage this LLM to generate descriptive text and titles for locations and images.

The podcast also delved into several new features. iPadOS is receiving a substantial update with improvements to multitasking, including Stage Manager 2.0 for better window management and the introduction of a menu bar. The Journal app, currently on iPhone, will be coming to iPad. A more Mac-like Files app is also expected, though concerns were raised about its integration with third-party cloud services and local storage schemes. Other anticipated features include a Preview app for iPadOS, local audio capture for video conferencing, studio-quality audio recording for AirPods Pro 2 and possibly AirPods 4, a phone app for macOS, and wrist flick gestures for managing calls on watchOS. The speakers also touched upon "liquid glass" visual effects, the "workout buddy" feature in Apple Fitness, the continued lack of significant updates for Siri, and the potential for background tasks to slow down iPads.
