Apple WWDC: What tech fans guessed right and wrong

The WWDC keynote on June 8 set expectations for new features and software, and we invited readers to take part in a five-question guessing game about what would appear. For every correct answer participants earn an entry into a drawing to win the latest Apple Watch in September; round one results are now in and two more rounds remain.

On Apple Intelligence, readers flagged advanced voice control and natural language as the most underrated pieces, with several noting ‘‘quiet plumbing’’ features that let the camera and OS act as a real-time understanding layer and the hope that Siri becomes a true system-level context engine.

Nearly 10% of responses predicted AI-generated wallpapers and backgrounds would arrive in iOS 27, and others suggested Apple might add a universal back button similar to Android’s behavior. The panel counted 106 mentions of “Siri” during the keynote, and answers within ten of that number were scored as correct.
