Apple has unveiled a new global resource called Meet with Apple Experts, which aims to provide the developer community with easy access to sessions, workshops, labs, and one-on-one consultations. The program is designed to help developers learn about the latest tools and resources offered by Apple to enhance their app development skills.
Meet with Apple Experts offers more than 50 sessions, workshops, and consultations, both online and in-person. This provides developers worldwide with ample opportunities to directly connect with Apple experts for guidance, support, and feedback. The sessions cover various topics, including deep dives into iOS 17, iPadOS 17, watchOS 10, visionOS, and optimization of apps and games for the latest hardware releases. In addition, there will be sessions focused on maximizing app and game experiences on the App Store, such as customizing product pages, enhancing app discovery, and utilizing features like App Analytics to improve customer acquisition.
The resource is accessible to developers at any stage of their development journey, regardless of their location. Whether they seek interactive experiences, hands-on testing and optimization, or one-on-one consultations with Apple evangelists, engineers, and designers, Meet with Apple Experts offers a dedicated space for developers to create innovative and engaging app experiences.
Meet with Apple Experts builds upon the success of previous programs such as Ask Apple, Meet with App Store Experts, and Tech Talks. These programs have collectively provided developers with hundreds of live presentations and thousands of one-on-one consultations. The topics covered in these programs will now be integrated into Meet with Apple Experts.
Registered Apple developers, as well as current members of the Apple Developer Program and Apple Developer Enterprise Program, can access information about sessions, labs, and special events by visiting developer.apple.com/experts.
