Blog Post: 10 Bold Changes We Want to See at WWDC This Monday
06/06/25 17:56
Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) has long been the birthplace of innovation, surprise, and the occasional smug grin from Craig Federighi. But as we gear up for Monday’s keynote, let’s cut through the marketing fog and lay down 10 real changes we want to see—not the fluff, but the fire.
⸻
1. Siri 2.0 — Actually Smart This Time
We’re not asking for Jarvis—but we’re done with Siri getting outclassed by a toaster. Apple needs to unleash an AI-powered Siri that’s context-aware, learns from user behavior, and—imagine this—understands follow-up questions.
⸻
2. Home Screen Freedom on iOS
Let us place icons anywhere we damn well please. Android users have been flexing custom layouts since the Obama administration. Apple, it’s time to unlock the grid.
⸻
3. macOS + iPadOS: One Ecosystem to Rule Them All
We don’t need full fusion, but we want macOS-level apps on iPad Pro. Final Cut and Logic were a good start—now give us real multitasking, external monitor support that works like macOS, and file system freedom.
⸻
4. App Store Transparency (and Fairness)
Apple’s gatekeeping is getting old. Developers want clearer guidelines, faster reviews, and a fairer cut. And for the love of Jobs, let us sideload apps—even if it’s just in the EU to start.
⸻
5. Battery Health Reimagined
iOS battery management is a black box. We want live battery cycle counts, deeper analytics, and maybe a “Battery AI” to tell us when to charge for max lifespan. No more voodoo.
⸻
6. A Real Push into AI, Not a Buzzword Parade
Enough with the term “AI” slapped onto slideshow slides. We want on-device LLMs, image generation baked into Photos, auto-coding in Xcode, and AI-assisted accessibility tools that blow us away.
⸻
7. Universal Control 2.0
When it works, it’s magic. But we want drag-and-drop between iPad, Mac, iPhone, and Vision Pro—no hiccups, no setup rituals. Just flow.
⸻
8. Lock Screen Customization for macOS
iOS got widgets and lock screen love. macOS? Still looking like 2010. Give us custom lock screen info, like calendar, weather, music, and Face ID for MacBook Pros. Stop teasing.
⸻
9. Messages Upgrade — Because It’s Falling Behind
RCS support is coming, but let’s also see message scheduling, reactions across platforms, and AI-summarized group chats. We’re drowning in blue bubbles—help us stay afloat.
⸻
10. The Return of Fun
Apple has gone suit-and-tie serious. We miss the weird wallpapers, interactive lock screen themes, new emoji with bite, and Easter eggs in the OS. Surprise us. Make us smile again.
⸻
🎯 Final Note:
Apple, Monday is your stage. Dazzle us not with marketing spin, but with genuine utility. We want products that sing, software that works with us, not at us, and a vision that doesn’t feel five years behind the headlines.
Let’s see if the Apple we know—bold, magical, and occasionally rebellious—makes a grand return this WWDC.
