Hey, what's up everybody. Brian Tong here. Welcome to the Apple Bits XL.

I'm your host with the most Brian Tong for everything good and bad inside the world of Apple and this is just a few three or four days before

W. W. W. D. 2018.

It's going to be our preview of everything to expect.

Before we get rolling, we've got to say thank you so much to our sponsors, which are you at

Patreon.com slash Brian Tong. You can check all that that out but let's first of all jump into the show

This is all about you all and I continue to encourage you to call in to make the show what it is and I love how the calls have picked up. But let's see what do we expect here. All the rumors and reports are saying

software, software, software. I'm sorry if you're looking for big hardware. We may not really see it this year and that's okay because look at what happened last year.

Apple pretty much loaded the pre-holiday season, kind of the fall through the holiday season with so much hardware.

It was like a barrage, so that's okay.

All this software leads us and gives us indications of what we can expect to see.

So first up, according to multiple reports and this one set off by

Mark Germin at Bloomberg, this keynote is going to focus on digital health. That might never be the sexiest thing you've thought of, but

I. S. 12 is going to focus on digital health. Now Apple has recently been

criticized for, you know, it's addictive nature to devices you know how they're not doing anything to

help our digital health we saw Google at Google I.O.

Respond to this with some of their own features that pretty much say, hey, we want you to use our products,

we know you love them, but they're getting,

it's getting a little out of hand.

So at W.W. D.C., again, this is going to be held at San Jose.

The keynote is on Monday at 10 a.m. Pacific time in case you all didn't know if you're free I will be doing my own live stream video live stream starting at 9 a.m. taking your live calls.

We're going to do the crazy bingo card, the tweets.
