Reflecting on WWDC 2022

There was an awful lot to unpack from WWDC 2022. One thing missing was any reference to Apple TV+, the TV box and app, or tvOS. We did get some further insight into Appleā€™s interest in sport, though. (This episode was recorded just before Apple announced its decade-long MLS deal – thanks guys!)

Hot off the plane from California, the Irish Independentā€™s Tech Editor Adrian Weckler explains what it was like to be back at Apple Park, the value of in-person events, his takeaways from the announcements, and why it looks like Craig Federighi is being groomed to be the next Apple CEO. Adrian questions Charlotteā€™s theory that Apple is interested in taking on The Athletic directly. Furthermore, there is a discussion about Appleā€™s new deal with Nike to produce sports-related content. Is two of the worldā€™s most powerful brands teaming up actually a good thing for consumers?
