With not long to go till Apples annual Worldwide Conference (June 3rd), This conference is the main software conference that Apple do through out the year. It's very exciting and as usual Apple will be hosting the WWDC from the San Jose McEnery Convention center and will be streaming it live on their website.
So what to expect?
iOS 13 -
Just like last year, there is a lot of rumors about there being a system wide dark mode. This would be great and has been long overdue. A system like this was introduced last year with Mac OS.
An Updated volume UI is expected this year with one that is a lot less intruding than the current one.
Theres a lot of rumors about some apps being revamped this year, for example the Health app which include a new design and a way of monitoring noise levels. Find my friends and Find my iPhone is also looking to be redesigned.
Watch OS 6 -
There is a lot of rumors regarding this years Apple watch update including several new apps, A Calculator app, Book app (Used for listening to Audio books and will likely be similar to the Podcasts app.) New health applications for the watch including tracking Pills are rumored.
Something big planned for this new update which is that the watch would be getting it's own on device App Store, this would be great for App developers as it would mean App installs could increase dramatically as users would be able to download and explore apps on the devices, however it is still a small screen so I can imagine it being fairly detail-less.
Mac OS -
1. There is a lot of rumors regarding Apple Music getting it's own separate application, away from iTunes.
2. Messages app is expecting a new refreshed look similar to the iOS one.
3. If you remember last year Apple brought four iPad apps to the Mac OS (These were Home, News, Podcasts and Voice Memos) well this year it is expected that more Apps will be brought across to the Mac.
This sums up my quick recap of what to expect at the WWDC 2019! I can't wait to see what's coming up, You can watch Live on Apples website on the 3rd of June. You can also follow me on Twitter for my live commentary www.twitter.com/kylewilkinson46

I used Bloombergs article as my source of information for this post. I recommend checking out the original post out too here ( https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-05-06/apple-wwdc-2019-ios-13-macos-10-15-watchos-6-tvos-features ) The read is very interesting.
