It's been a good run for Game Center on iOS and Mac, but it looks as though it's finally time to say goodnight and move onto newer pastures as Apple plans on pulling the app for good with the release of iOS 10 and macOS Sierra. Apple's introduction of iOS 10 and macOS Sierra during the opening keynote of WWDC 2016 event was enough to whet the appetite of iPhone, iPad, iPod and Mac users, but it seems that there's also value in knowing what has been removed from the platform as well as what has been added.
As expected, Apple used the opening keynote of WWDC 2016 to officially announce that Apple Pay is expanding into three more regions. As part of a partnership with new banks, Apple's contactless mobile payment platform is now confirmed to be launching in Switzerland, France and Hong Kong, meaning that not only will Apple Pay be soon available in 9 countries in total, but this announcement makes Switzerland and France only the second and third European countries to fly the flag for Apple Pay alongside the United Kingdom.
WWDC 2016's opening keynote has come to a close and we now know just what Apple has been waiting to share with us for the last 12 months. Here's a roundup of everything announced at the event.
Apple's WWDC 2016 was as jam-packed as the earlier speculation suggested, and was full of the expected platform announcements with the official unveiling of iOS 10, macOS Sierra, watchOS 3 and tvOS 10. The opening keynote was also full of Apple's trademark videos that showcased the good that the company is doing in the world and the positive change that it is trying to enact, which this year includes trying to promote the benefits of coding with the Swift programming language through the new Swift Playgrounds iPad app.
In the midst of all of the Apple WWDC madness and excitement you can be forgiven for getting caught up in all of the major announcements and missing some of the smaller changes that Tim Cook and team didn't touch on for one reason or another. As the keynote was happening, and as a slew of Apple's executive team were introducing and demoing key new features within iOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS, the company engineers were secretly uploading a number of apps to the App Store against Apple's own developer account. Curiously, all of those apps are ones that generally come pre-installed as stock apps on iOS out of the box.
And the wait is finally over. Apple's macOS Sierra version 10.12 beta 1 is now live and available to download and install for developers. Those of you who are enrolled and registered on Apple Developer Program can instantly grab the latest beta version of desktop OS from Apple right now. As for those registered on the free Apple Public Beta Program, the company has confirmed that Sierra will be available to public testers in July.
