Apple has just announced the dates for its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2024. WWDC will take place from June 10 through June 14, 2024. A special event will be held at Apple Park in Cupertino, California, on June 10, and we expect to see the reveal of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, watchOS 11, tvOS 18, macOS 15, and visionOS 2.

WWDC will be free for all developers online. Developers will be able to access a variety of online sessions and labs that will showcase the latest advancements in software across all of Apple’s hardware.

The keynote should also be available for anyone to watch online through a livestream on the Apple Developer app, Apple’s website, and Apple’s YouTube channel. Apple will also be sharing videos and information throughout the week.

Though WWDC 2024 can be enjoyed online, Apple will also hold a special in-person event for developers and students, but space is limited. For a chance to attend, you’ll have to apply via Apple’s lottery system (information is available on the Apple Developer site). Those who are selected to attend will be able to watch the event in person, meet Apple team members, and participate in special activities like the State of the Union presentation and Apple Design Awards.

Normally, Apple holds its Swift Student Challenge once the WWDC dates are revealed, but this year, Apple did the challenge early. The winners for the Swift Student Challenge will be revealed this week, on March 28. The winners of the challenge will be able to attend the special event at Apple Park, and 50 Distinguished Winners will receive an invitation to Cupertino for a three-day experience.

More information about WWDC 2024 will be shared with developers through the Apple Developer app and website.

Samsung gives Galaxy owners an impressive amount of control over their phones. Features like Good Lock let users customize just about every aspect of their smartphones. But somehow, the company forgot to put a simple alaxy owners an almost ridiculous amount of control over their phones. Somehow, simply adding a fingerprint lock for apps.

With the One UI 9.5 update, this might finally change. Tipster Fahad Ali Javed has uncovered a native App Lock feature inside an unreleased One UI 9.5 build running on a Galaxy S26. So you would be able to secure individual apps directly from the app drawer without moving them somewhere else first. This could be one of One UI 9.5's simplest and most useful additions.

The iPhone X is obsolete now, and so is that aging MacBook Pro
Relax! only the 2018 MacBook Pro is obsolete
iPhone X

The iPhone X and 15-inch 2018 MacBook Pro have officially joined Apple's obsolete products list, marking the end of official hardware service for two devices that once represented the company's future.

Apple updated its support listings to move both products from its vintage category to the obsolete category. That distinction matters because once a device becomes obsolete, Apple discontinues hardware service for it, while authorized service providers can no longer order parts through Apple.

The Pixel 11 Pro is an absolute stealth banger, and its camera finally wants me to experiment
I tried the Pixel 11 Pros, and one tiny light left me wanting more
Google Pixel 11 Pro Matte Obsidian Rear

Google already made some pretty phones, and the new Pixel 11 Pro series just got even better-looking. Recent Pixel Pro models have been among the most premium Android phones I've spent time with, and a few minutes with the Pixel 11 Pro and Pixel 11 Pro XL told me Google is refining the formula even further.

The Pixel 11 was a surprisingly compelling base flagship, and the Pixel 11 Pro and Pixel 11 Pro XL continue the strong first impressions. The phones are lighter, the camera visor is slimmer, the screens are brighter, and the smaller Pro finally gets faster Pixelsnap charging. Google also throws in HiLight and a refreshing new way to experience its camera software.
