The Worldwide Developers Conference 2013 (WWDC) is all set to unveil its future products or gadgets. As it is just a few days ahead, the guess game has already begun about what will and what will not appear this time in it. But in all those guess games, one is for sure that Apple would unveil and provide access to a few specific things like Siri, Notification Widget center and more to the developers, which seems like low-hanging fruit for a few iterations of the iOS now. Worldwide Developers Conference 2013 (WWDC) from the Apple is merely a week away, and that means we’re going to see a lot of buzz regarding what will and won’t appear this time in the conference. The Apple itself has dropped clues, and the recent tweaks from CEO Tim Cook while speaking at AllThingsD’s D11 conference last week clearly indicates that developers should be tempted about what’s on tap for the annual conference this year! Cook also suggested that Apple would be going far more ahead than it was before in terms of opening up API access in order to make iOS more flexible and customizable for the coders. He further added that there would be a much greater ability to offer things that were impossible earlier. Well, that was quite general statement, then what would be the obvious target in WWDC this year? There are a few crucial things that Apple would unveil and provide access to the developers, which seems like low-hanging fruit for a few iterations of the iOS now. The list of the targets will be quite familiar to the developers who have imagined to access these features since they were launched. Siri The iPhone programmers India have been looking at Siri since the day Apple bought the tech – integrating apps within the virtual personal assistant would be heavily beneficial to the developers, since it could theoretically convey users to their services and generate a lot of additional revenue. By allowing select partners to gain entry, like OpenTable, Yelp and so on, Apple has performed some loosening of the Siri. But it hasn’t thrown the gates wide; there is still no API available to the programmers to plug into its services and voice recognition power. Which is a misfortune as Siri would likely be more powerful with the ample resources that will come with the huge availability of the developers. Whether Siri is going to use the developers or developers are going to use it, the main issue with allowing developers the freedom of using it freely and become a crucial end point for the users. How do you filter and ensure not to overload users with the results, and how do you choose between the two similar apps that can answer the same query? This is the only reason why Apple is so inclined to offer Siri to the developers. Notification Center Widgets Apple launched widgets with the real-time updating information for the notification center when it launched that feature. The widgets are basically intended for the weather and stocks, two inbuilt iOS services, but they make a lot of sense for the developers who wants to display a user constantly updating information. There are no chances that Apple will bring live updates on the home screen. Still, it makes sense for them to offer that to the developers in the Notification Center. It will significantly reduce the number of steps a user has to go through in order to find critical information of their interest. Well, the two areas discussed above may not be the first choice for the Apple to provide flexibility, but you can expect them more open up and less restricted in WWDC 2013 for sure…!
