In September, trademark attorney Brian Conroy contacted AppleInsider with a list of trademarks covertly filed by Apple internationally, potentially revealing the names of upcoming products. Many of the names proved true at Apple's iPhone 7 event, including AirPods, iBooks Storytime, and the "Everyone Can Code" teaching initiative.
