'Apple Events' app launched on Apple TV app store ahead of 21 March event

Apple has released a new Apple Events" app on the tvOS App Store which will allow users to watch the March 21 event live on the Apple TV. The app is free and is now available for download. Apple’s ‘Loop you in’ event will be the company’s first keynote to stream on the Apple TV unlike previous event channels which needed to be downloaded from the App store. The live stream will also be available on Macs (OS X 10.8.5 with Safari 6.0.5 or later) and iOS devices (iOS 7 or later) through Apple’s website . A report by Cultofmac  shares a few details regarding the interface. The new app is said to be “incredibly basic” and features a page which displays the time of the upcoming Apple Event in one’s local time zone. One can also watch previous product announcements made over the past years.

The company is expected to launch the 4-inch iPhone SE, 9.7-inch iPad Pro, new Apple Watch bands, software updates, and much more. So far, everyone has their eyes set on the new iPhone. This would also be the first time that the company would unveil a new smartphone in the first quarter of the year, unlike their traditional September launch. In terms of all the rumours, we expect the new iPhone SE to sport a smaller 4-inch screen along with a similar specs sheet, as the iPhone 6s. The device is likely to get a 12MP rear snapper, instead of the previously rumoured 8MP rear camera. In terms of design, it is likely to be similar to the iPhone 5s but with a slightly more curved 2.5D glass, which is in line with what we’ve been hearing. It is also known that Apple is building a 9.7-inch iPad Pro variant and not an iPad Air 3. The device is said to come with the same internals as the bigger sibling – 12.9-inch iPad Pro. According to 9To5Mac , the upcoming iPad Pro may consider adopting a 12MP camera and could be capable of shooting 4K videos too. The powerful A9X is likely to power the device and it will also get an optimised Smart Cover. The screen technology will support Smart Pencil and one can also expect quad speakers and an upgraded RAM.
