It’s been two weeks since Apple’s 2022 WWDC keynote, so myself and our newest team member, Frazley, sat down to dissect some of the key announcements and the things that really got us excited.

Because we’ve had a bit of time to do some more research on some of the new features, I hope that comes across and you enjoy our thoughts and observations.

There’s lots we just didn’t have time to cover, for example there’s some very exciting things happening with HomeKit and Matter, but you can rest assured plans are in progress to have a full ‘State of HomeKit in 2022’ style episode.

Please do share your WWDC thoughts on things you found exciting, or if you think we’re downright wrong (it does happen) in the comments, both here and over on Goodpods.
