Jump into June!

As we roll into June, we have WWDC2025 (World Wide Developers Conference) to look forward to. According to rumours it may be a fairly “quiet” one with no major hardware or software announcements. We’ll see some mentions of the next iOS, iPadOS, macOS etc versions, but may not see a lot of info just yet.

With the last month of the financial year, this tends to be a fairly busy period for a lot of people as well - always lots of paperwork and things to catch up on before EoFY.

Hope everyone has a good June!

WWDC2025 - World Wide Developers Conference 2025

With WWDC about a week away, latest rumours suggest we may see a “smaller than usual” event this year. With no hardware or major software announcements unlike we had last year. But it should be more focused on what we’ll see for the next operating system updates.

It’s also rumoured that Apple may change the naming for each version as well, so instead of iOS19 and macOS16 we may see everything change to the “following year name” convention - eg iOS ’26, iPadOS ’26, macOS ’26 etc. So rather than the numbering system being out of sync, you can see at a glance which year the version is from. It may be a bit different at first, but hopefully starts to make sense over time.

You can read a bit more about WWDC here and a bit more about the change in name here.

Changes to the visuals and layouts of the next OS.

Another rumours doing the rounds is that we’ll see quite a visual change to iOS, iPadOS and macOS next release as well. According to the rumours Apple are going to take a lot of the visuals from VisionOS, with more translucency, more floating bars and menus and rounded buttons and interface just to name a few.

You can get a bit of a “sneak peak” to what this may look like over at the MacRumors article that mentioned it here.

eBooks Online - your source for Digital eBook’s ‘Down Under’

After quietly working on a new venture since mid-last year, I’m excited to announce that it’s now live! 

The first eBook—"Avoiding Scams Down Under"—is available now, with more titles to come.

With scams on the rise in recent years, this eBook is a valuable resource to help you stay informed and protected. It covers key warning signs, practical steps to safeguard yourself and your finances, and crucial advice on recovering if you’ve been scammed.

Sadly, I’ve seen too many people fall victim to scams, which is why I hope this eBook will make a real difference by equipping more people with the knowledge they need.
