WWDC 2020 in 18-minutes

I have to admit that I watched the keynote in almost its entirety while I was at the airport waiting for a flight and even continued it while boarding the aircraft (as a passenger mind you) and was every bit tweeting and excited for what the future is going to bring. I mean, the most exciting for me are Home Screen Widgets for the iPhone but that Translate App is bonkers too; Sleep Tracking on the Apple Watch but I’m a little skeptical on the battery life and management but I’m sure Apple will have more on that with the Apple Watch 6 set to debut this fall; iPad’s continuing growth as a full fledge computing device and of course, Mac’s move to Apple Silicon. That’s huge! Still wondering why no benchmark’s were released but I’m interested in that Development Testing Kit Mac Mini at $500! The surprise was that all the demos of macOS 11 were that they were running on a Mac with Apple Silicon and most apps running natively.

If you didn’t get a chance to watch the Keynote, check out The Verge’s video with the highlights below! That wheelchair is pretty amazing. Almost seems like Apple invented that one.
