While iOS got a pretty substantial revamp at last year's WWDC, reports suggest we could see bigger changes in the way notifications work in iOS 15. Maybe even a new lock screen? If you're waiting to see what's next for Apple Silicon after a pretty successful launch, this could be the time. Apple is in the midst of transitioning from Intel to its own processors, so we could get a more fleshed-out selection of Apple Silicon Macs. It may be a little early for an M2 chip, however.
That's just to start. Apple's developer showcase usually lasts a couple of hours, and we'll be reporting on everything that happens. WWDC kicks off on Monday, June 7th with the keynote starting at 10 AM PT/1 PM ET. Have a great weekend and come join us then.

Mark Gurman says Apple is also working on a new iPad mini.
Or maybe we'll see new iPads? Sadly, these will probably appear later. Apple may be planning an iPad Pro with wireless charging capabilities, as well as a new iPad mini. Bloomberg reports that Apple will replace the Pro tablet's aluminum casing with a glass back similar to the latest iPhones', partly to enable wireless charging.

The share price has shot up in recent days, while AMC is on another big run.
It's the new Gamestop stock. Reddit speculators have turned to BlackBerry for their latest run on the stock market. The share price was up around seven percent on Thursday afternoon, following gains of 32 percent and 15 percent over the last two sessions.
The price hasn't quite hit the heights of a short squeeze back in January, when it reached $28.77, but it has still more than doubled since the start of the year. The r/wallstreetbets subreddit, where the AMC and GameStop pumps largely originated, is full of threads about BlackBerry. One redditor cited their rewarding experience of working on the BlackBerry factory line as their reason for investing. Continue reading.
