We are only a month away from the Worldwide Developers Conference, and excitement is building with Apple preparing to open up a lottery for a limited number of developer spots to attend a viewing at Apple Park.
We heard rumors about the Apple Watch Series 8, got a closer look at Jony Ive's departure from Apple, and tried out Apple's new Self Service Repair program.
Apple's Self Service Repair program in the United States started with iPhone 12 models, iPhone 13 models, and the third-generation iPhone SE. Customers can get select parts, tools, and manuals from Apple to complete repairs.
We were curious about how the Self Service Repair program works and how it compares to the simplicity of bringing a product in to Apple for repair, so we ordered a repair kit to replace the battery in an iPhone 12 mini.
Dan described the process as a big mistake, so watch the video to find out why.
The Apple Watch Series 8 might have a body temperature sensor if the underlying software is able to meet Apple's high standards.
The body temperature sensor was supposed to be in the Apple Watch Series 7 last year, but Apple allegedly put it off due to the bad algorithms.
The keynote and State of the Union videos will be shown in person at Apple Park on June 6 for some lucky developers, who will be able to watch them in person.
Developers and Swift Student Challenge applicants can attend the event for free. Developers can submit a request to attend starting May 9 if they so choose, as invitations will be allocated through a random selection process.
Ahead of the announcement of the new operating system, Apple continues to test a minor update for the device.

According to data shared by StatCounter, Microsoft Edge is the second most popular desktop browser, behind Apple's Safari. The first place is still held by the internet browser, Google Chrome.
The popularity of Edge has crept up in recent months, allowing it to surpass Safari as the default Windows 11 browser. The rankings do not include mobile browsers.
