Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference kicks off on Monday with the usual parade of new stuff the company has been working on. But, much as it wants to preserve its surprises, there have been sufficient leaks for us to know plenty about what’ll be shown off on stage. We’ve put together an exhaustive list of everything you should know going in, from AI gimmicks to the new iOS features. And while Apple just launched new iPads, we can always hope to see some new and exciting hardware getting the on-stage treatment.

Starship survives re-entry to splash down in the Indian Ocean after successful fourth flight test

Apple will reportedly build a dedicated Passwords app for the iPhone and Mac
Are 1Password and LastPass at risk of being Sherlocked?
One late-breaking rumor before WWDC was that Apple would build its own password manager for iOS and macOS. The company already has a sophisticated password manager built in, but rumors suggest a standalone app will be both easier to use and a bigger draw. If true, it’s likely to prompt fears that third-party password managers, like 1Password and LastPass, are at risk of being muscled out of the space.
