Apple to unveil latest software at WWDC 2016

By Heather Kelly

Apple is shaking up its software.

On Monday, the company is expected to announce a number of new upgrades to its various operating systems. Expect previews of the new features coming to Macs, iPhones, iPads, the Apple Watch and Apple TV. There’s unlikely to be much hardware news this time around.

The keynote address kicks off Apple’s annual World Wide Developers Conference at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in downtown San Francisco.

CEO Tim Cook started the event with a moment of silence for the victims of Sunday’s mass shooting in Orlando, Florida. Cook called it a “senseless, unconscionable act of terrorism and hate aimed at dividing and destroying.”

“The Apple community is made up from people around the world,” said Cook. “We celebrate our diversity, we know that it makes us stronger and moves everyone forward.”

Some of the biggest announcements are expected to revolve around Siri, Apple’s five-year-old voice assistant. The company could finally open Siri up to third-party developers and bring it to the Mac, among other improvements. Other potential announcements include updates for Apple Music and Apple Pay, and a new name for OS X.
