Apple plans to unveil its first smart glasses at WWDC in June 2027, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. WWDC is Apple's yearly event for app makers.

Showing the glasses there would give developers time to build apps before the glasses go on sale later in 2027. The device is known inside Apple as N50, and Gurman says privacy will be a focus.

WWDC would be the reveal, not the release. Apple has not announced the glasses.
