Apple’s annual developers conference was this week, so naturally, our podcast conversation this week had to be about Tim Cook’s new Memoji.

Not really: We talked about all the things we can expect to see when iOS 12 comes to iPhones this fall, why Apple decided to launch “digital wellness” features, how walkie-talkie on the Apple Watch could make it more useful, and what iOS apps on Mac mean. Will Apple ever make a touchscreen laptop? Right now, the company says no…but it has a history of saying “no” before it goes and makes that exact thing.

Some notes: You can read all about the top news announcements out of WWDC here. Also, Arielle (who is on vacation the next two weeks) wrote about the paradox of Apple’s “screen time” efforts, while Lauren had the exclusive interview with Apple software chief Craig Federighi about how iOS apps will port to the Mac. Also mentioned in this podcast was the new Sonos Beam; check out our deep dive into the product’s development.

Recommendations this week: We didn’t have time to talk about smart speakers nearly as much as we wanted to this week, but we still had music on the brain: Mike’s recommendation this week is LIVE Quadrophonic, a 180-gram vinyl pressing of Suzanne Ciani’s 30-minute live electronic music performance. (Mike warns that it’s both abstract, and totally worth it.) Lauren thanks you in advance for indulging her in her shamelessly promotional recommendation of her brother Gerald’s new album, Rocket Ship.
