So while last month's show was all about atoms, this week's presentation is all about bits. The short version is that we can bank on seeing some previews of the next versions of the software that powers iPhones, iPads, Macs, Apple Watches, and Apple TV boxes.
WWDC is, by name and by nature, a developer conference, so we can also expect the presentation to get slightly more technical than the usual Apple product announcement. One thing we're certain of is that today's show will be merely a preview of things to come.
The software Apple will demonstrate during its presentation will be coming to devices later this year likely September and will be available only to developers and beta testers until then. Apple's presentation will start at 1 pm Eastern, 10 am Pacific, today, Monday, June 7. And this isn't including the occasional wildcard on Apple's part. You'll want to tune in, in other words, as there's bound to a few twists and surprises.

There's no browser on Apple TV 4K, so you have to watch via the app. To Apple's credit, they don't tend to push their events down your throat on this app. To everyone else's chagrin, though, they do make it harder to find the event video when you want it.
It's possible that Apple will promote the event more obviously when it's actually on. But in the meantime, you can't find it, not even with a specific search. Again, at least they are until afterwards. If you don't follow the live stream as it happens, or if you just want to watch again, then Apple makes the keynote widely available. It remains, for instance, on YouTube and on the Apple TV app — where a deliberate search will now find it.
The YouTube version also adds a contents list in the video description, after the live stream has ended. So you can quickly skip to the section on, say iOS, with a single click. Also on YouTube, as you watch, you can use the regular video editing keys of J, K, and L to move it along.
K is play or pause, while J and L leap back or forward 10 seconds, respectively. The video on Apple's own site doesn't recognize those keystrokes.
However, it does present a timeline which divides the presentation into chapters that you can jump to. Video replay is also another advantage of the new online-only format. The replay of keynote videos can be on Apple's site more quickly than from a live presentation, since it's all pre-filmed and pre-prepared.
Curiously, though, Apple may not require you to visit the US site to see the video. While the live stream is now most often solely on the US version of the site, replay videos are available later on different international versions of Apple. The US version may still be the best, though, as it's the only one that optionally provides American Sign Language interpretation. All of the above — YouTube, Apple's website, Apple devices — are what you need if the only thing you're interested in is the keynote.
If you're even a little interested in development, though, there is another way to watch. Apple's newly updated Developer App is a way that gets you the annual State of the Union presentation, as well as developer topic-specific sessions. They keynote is the main attraction, but across the whole of the week there are going to be significant updates revealed.

Ahead of the finale, Apple on Thursday released a short video recapping the show's major events so far. Here's how it compares to Apple's Intel-based Mac Pro tower, and why folks that rely on that machine may need to consider the laptop as a viable upgrade. Apple used the Razer Blade 15 Advanced as a point of comparison for the performance of the M1 Max chip.
