(audience applauding) - Good morning! And welcome to the Steve Jobs Theater. As you can tell, today's gonna be a very different kind of event. So let's get started with Apple News. (audience applauding) I love the feeling of being at the newsstand with all those beautiful and thought-provoking magazines covering so many topics. Well today, we're bringing magazines to Apple News. All of these magazines come to life in an all-new service that we call Apple News Plus. (audience applauding) - Apple News Plus will bring you over 300 magazines across all sorts of topics, and Apple News Plus is the only place where you will find all these magazines in a single package. But Apple News Plus is about more than magazines. Apple News Plus also includes some of the most popular premium digital subscriptions like the Skimm. We download groups of articles from our servers, and then we use on-device intelligence to make recommendations, and that means we don't know what you read, and in addition to that, we don't allow advertisers to track you. (audience applauding) We decided to make this available to your entire family with Family Sharing at no extra charge. You pay $9.99 per month. (audience applauding) Apple News Plus is available today. Just download today's updates of iOS and MacOS and launch Apple News, and the first month is free. (audience applauding) - Now let's talk about Apple Pay. We're bringing Apple Pay to transit in major cities in the U.S. starting right here on the west coast with Portland and rolling out in Chicago and New York City later this year. (audience applauding) Today, we're introducing a brand new service, and we call it Apple Card. (audience applauding) - You don't have to wait days to get your card. Just sign up on your iPhone, and in just minutes, you get your Apple Card, and you can start using it right away. You can use it world wide anywhere with Apple Pay, in apps, in stores, on the web, and your Apple Card will be available across all of your Apple devices. Apple Card is also always with you because it's in your iPhone in the Wallet app, and the Wallet app has completely new capabilities. So you can see everything you need to know about your Apple Card. With Apple Card, if you have a question, just text us right from Messages. Everything from getting details on a transaction to letting us know your new address. With Apple Card, we use machine learning and Apple Maps to transform this mess into names and locations that you'll recognize. Apple Card also automatically organizes and totals your purchases, and you can keep track of your spending by categories like food and drink, shopping, entertainment, and more. And Apple Card also shows you how your spending is trending week-over-week or month-over-month. So every time you spend with Apple Card, you get cash back, and you get it every day. In fact, every time you pay with your iPhone or Apple Watch, you'll get 2% of the purchase amount in daily cash. And for purchases made directly from Apple, you get 3% daily cash. (audience applauding) - Apple Arcade is the world's first game subscription service for mobile, desktop, and living room. With a single subscription, you'll get access to over 100 new and exclusive games. You'll be able to play Apple Arcade games across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV and pick up where you left off in a game even if you switch devices. And unlike streaming services, every game will be playable offline. There will be no ads and no additional purchases needed, and parents can manage their kids' access with our screen time features. Apple Arcade games cannot collect any data about you nor track any information about how you play their games without your consent. (audience applauding) Apple Arcade will be available this fall in over 150 countries and regions around the world.
