00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,900
Welcome to Top 5 Tech, my show about what to watch, read, listen to, download, and a little something deep every week.

2
00:00:06,059 --> 00:00:09,660
On what to watch this week, there's a ton of great WWDC content out there.

3
00:00:09,820 --> 00:00:12,480
I'll link a couple of my YouTube friends, like Andrew Clare, who helped me shoot.

4
00:00:12,580 --> 00:00:17,000
But I also want to call out this interview Justin Ryan got with the Vision Pro team.

5
00:00:17,339 --> 00:00:20,899
And he asked the question everyone's thinking, is Apple kind of done with Apple Vision Pro?

6
00:00:21,359 --> 00:00:23,300
I won't spoil it. I think it's a great interview.

7
00:00:23,519 --> 00:00:27,600
And shout out to Justin, who this is the second time I've got to see him at WWDC.

8
00:00:27,839 --> 00:00:30,000
but we're really happy for him that he got to land this interview.

9
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,739
And Apple answers that question.

10
00:00:32,060 --> 00:00:34,399
On what to listen to, I'm going to be a little self-serving here.

11
00:00:34,519 --> 00:00:37,299
You should definitely listen to the latest episode of Primary Technology.

12
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,780
Got to record at Apple Podcast Studios in Apple Park.

13
00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:41,719
It was a great episode.

14
00:00:41,899 --> 00:00:45,859
Did a lot of live Siri demos showing off the Siri app, what it's capable of.

15
00:00:46,299 --> 00:00:48,159
And Siri AI is actually really good.

16
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:49,200
So you can listen to that.

17
00:00:49,439 --> 00:00:54,039
But also, once the talk show drops, the live talk show with John Gruber, Joanna Stern, and Nilay Patel,

18
00:00:54,299 --> 00:00:55,939
I got to be there live in person.

19
00:00:56,379 --> 00:00:57,299
It was a great show.

20
00:00:57,299 --> 00:01:00,000
really thoughtful review of everything that's been happening at WWE.

21
00:01:00,820 --> 00:01:02,359
So when that comes out, definitely take a listen.

22
00:01:02,359 --> 00:01:08,659
On what to read, Federico Vitticci wrote a wonderful essay about his 10 years at WWDC.

23
00:01:08,980 --> 00:01:12,480
It's a reflective essay talking about things he's learned, looking to the future.

24
00:01:12,819 --> 00:01:15,159
He is a great storyteller, and it's a really nice read.

25
00:01:15,539 --> 00:01:19,879
So I highly recommend reading WWDC 2026 Between Seasons by Vitticci.

26
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:25,079
And I'll also link Basic Apple Guy's macOS wall of text, where he took all the things

27
00:01:25,079 --> 00:01:29,480
from that massive slide showing the improvements across Apple's platforms this year,

28
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,480
put it into a numbered list, and there are 263 things you can read about

29
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,879
that will be improved in iOS 27.

30
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,340
So links to both of those down below.

31
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:39,519
Next, I want to download.

32
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,659
I met so many great developers this week.

33
00:01:41,700 --> 00:01:44,099
I'm going to be trying some new apps you might see in videos in the future.

34
00:01:44,420 --> 00:01:46,019
But I wanted to shout out Tasks.

35
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,719
This is to-do lists and Kanban, or Kanban.

36
00:01:48,819 --> 00:01:50,180
I learned that's how you actually pronounce it.

37
00:01:50,500 --> 00:01:53,500
Got to take a selfie with Mustafa, who makes the Tasks app.

38
00:01:53,799 --> 00:01:54,680
It's beautifully designed.

39
00:01:54,799 --> 00:01:57,379
I'm going to be giving it a shot, seeing if I like how it works.

40
00:01:57,500 --> 00:01:59,039
So you can check that out in the links below.

41
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,200
On something deep, I just want to say how thankful I am to be here.

42
00:02:03,379 --> 00:02:05,340
This is my second year at WWDC.

43
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:10,180
I've been following coverage of DubDub and basically the entire tech industry probably

44
00:02:10,180 --> 00:02:13,240
since 2007-ish.

45
00:02:13,599 --> 00:02:18,439
I remember I followed Neelai and Joanna and all of them at Engadget back then, followed

46
00:02:18,439 --> 00:02:21,360
them through This Is My Next, started reading MacRumors, 9to5Mac.

47
00:02:21,460 --> 00:02:26,879
I remember so many years of seeing this event from a distance and it is still surreal to

48
00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:30,000
me that I get to be here for the second year in a row.

49
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,879
And so many wonderful people that I've met, who I followed their work, Chance Miller from

50
00:02:34,879 --> 00:02:40,340
9to5Mac, get to see my HomeKit Insider co-host Andrew O'Hara when I'm here, plus just eating

51
00:02:40,340 --> 00:02:42,879
at the media breakfast and seeing iJustine across the room.

52
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,240
It is truly wonderful to be here.

53
00:02:45,580 --> 00:02:47,360
And I want to thank you for making it possible.

54
00:02:47,599 --> 00:02:52,039
It is because you guys respond to my videos, you find value in them, and you keep coming

55
00:02:52,039 --> 00:02:52,780
back to watch.

56
00:02:53,219 --> 00:02:54,579
It really makes a difference.

57
00:02:54,860 --> 00:02:58,939
Thanks for all of you who support, supporting the shortcuts community, the podcasts, all

58
00:02:58,939 --> 00:03:00,000
of that.

59
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:04,659
It means so much and I'm so glad and so fortunate that I get to do this.

60
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,340
It really, it really is meaningful.

61
00:03:06,439 --> 00:03:10,919
I'm going to write something probably a little longer on my website as I'm headed home, just

62
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:15,120
to kind of recap everything I experienced and just how I felt about this WWDC.

63
00:03:15,379 --> 00:03:18,639
So you'll be able to read that recap at beard.fm if you're interested.

64
00:03:19,219 --> 00:03:23,079
It'll be written after the newsletter for Top 5 goes out, so maybe I'll include it next

65
00:03:23,079 --> 00:03:23,300
week.

66
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,460
But remember, you can get this as a newsletter delivered every Friday.

67
00:03:26,620 --> 00:03:29,000
You can subscribe by scanning this QR code right here.

68
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,240
Podcasts, I'd really appreciate a five-star rating and review for this show.

69
00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:36,560
And remember, you can watch or listen here or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

70
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,979
And I appreciate you watching and listening every week.
