Apple’s big WWDC 2016 announcement is hours away, and the Cupertino giant has a lot up its sleeve.  The company is expected to launch and announce several improvements to its software products and also possibly upgrade some hardware.

Siri

 

SiriApple is serious about making Siri better, not only by making it more open but also more connected. While Google showed off some major improvements at Google IO, Amazon has also been working on Alexa which has left users excited about what next to expect.

However, with Siri being the most used assistant globally, thanks to Apple’s tight control, opening up to select third parties may be next on the agenda.

MacOS
