Apple Developer News and Updates feed provided by Apple, Inc.
Wednesday @ 2:00 – 5:00 p.m.
Request an appointment with an Apple engineer for guidance and conversation about the latest APIs, best practices, and more. Chat with Apple engineers from the Messages, Shared with You, Messages Collaboration, Share Sheet, UIActivityViewController, Watch Connectivity, and Multipeer Connectivity teams.
Tuesday @ 9:00 – 6:00 p.m.
Whether you’ve got a problem you’ve been itching to solve or you want to play with a new framework, Swift Playgrounds makes it easy to get started with building your first app — and we’re challenging you to try building something today! Explore the tools available, incorporate packages, build prototypes, and most importantly, have fun. Visit the Developer Tools Study Hall to work and collaborate on the “You can build an app for that!” coding challenge. Ask questions, connect with other developers, and share your progress.
8:00 a.m.
WeatherKit offers valuable weather data for your apps and services to help people stay up to date on the latest conditions. Learn how to use Swift and REST APIs to access information about the current weather, 10-day hourly forecasts for temperature, expected precipitation, wind reports, the UV Index, and more. We’ll also share how WeatherKit can provide timely, hyperlocal weather information without compromising someone’s personal data or their privacy.
Wednesday @ 3:00 – 5:00 p.m.
Request an appointment with an Apple engineer for guidance and conversation about all aspects of security: authorization and authentication, protecting data on device and in transit, cryptography, notarization for Mac apps, App Transport Security, code signing, app attestation, security features on Apple silicon, enterprise security, and more. We’ll also have representatives available to answer questions about supporting interpersonal safety, preserving user trust, and ensuring account security across apps, devices, and services.
8:00 a.m.
Learn how you can bring Live Text support for still photos or paused video frames to your app. We’ll share how you can easily enable text interactions, translation, data detection, and QR code scanning within any image view on iOS, iPadOS, or macOS. We’ll also go over how to control interaction types, manage the supplementary interface, and resolve potential gesture conflicts. To learn more about capturing and interacting with detected data in live camera feeds, watch “Capture machine-readable codes and text with VisionKit” from WWDC22.
8:00 a.m.
Create ML makes it easy to build custom machine learning models for image classification, object detection, sound classification, hand pose classification, action classification, tabular data regression, and more. And with the Create ML Components framework, you can further customize underlying tasks and improve your model. We’ll explore the feature extractors, transformers, and estimators that make up these tasks, and show you how you can combine them with other components and pre-processing steps to build custom tasks for concepts like image regression. For more information on creating complex customizable tasks, we recommend watching “Compose advanced models with Create ML Components” from WWDC22.
Wednesday @ 9:00 – 11:00 a.m.
Ask Apple engineers about Maps technologies during this 2 hour text-based Q&A. Bring your questions about MapKit, MapKit JS, Maps Server API, and Indoor Maps. We’re excited to help you integrate the all-new map into your app, discuss how to visualize your data by using annotations and overlays, and answer your questions about how to build multi-platform solutions that leverage our latest set of APIs. Stop in to request guidance on a code-level question, ask for clarifications, or learn from others in a group setting.
Wednesday @ 1:00 – 3:00 p.m.
Meet the Health and Fitness teams and learn more about HealthKit, ResearchKit, CareKit, SensorKit, Health Records, Apple Watch, and health and fitness topics during this 2 hour text-based Q&A. We would love to answer questions, brainstorm ideas, and meet people who are building health, fitness, or research apps on our platform. Stop in to request guidance on a code-level question, ask for clarifications, or learn from others in a group setting.
8:00 a.m.
Discover MetalFX, a new API that provides platform optimized graphics effects for Metal applications. With MetalFX Upscaling, your application can now render frames at a lower resolution, reducing rendering time, without compromising rendering quality. We’ll also show you how and when to use its two effects: spatial upscaling, which delivers substantial performance gains, and temporal AA and upscaling, which delivers the highest quality rendering.
Tuesday @ 9:00 – 11:00 a.m.
Request an appointment with an Apple Developer Technical Support engineer to ask a question about existing Apple frameworks, APIs, and tools. Get expert technical guidance about optimizing your code, understanding crashes, and best practices for implementing Apple technologies in your app. For questions about frameworks and API introduced at WWDC22, please register for a technology-specific WWDC22 lab, WWDC22 Digital Lounges activities, or visit the Apple Developer Forums.
