The big stories this week were, of course, Apple’s cancellation of the physical WWDC conference in favor of an online-only experience, temporary closures of all Apple Stores outside of China and the company’s other COVID-19 responses. Beyond coronavirus, iOS 14 spelunking has revealed dozens of features we can expect from Apple’s upcoming annual software updates, including new Apple apps and support for the company’s unreleased premium over-ear headphones.
