'Ask Apple' for developers restarts on Nov. 14

Apple has announced that next week of its Ask Apple series for developers will start on November 14, with sessions focusing on the latest technologies and features from the company.

Developers can get help integrating the latest technologies into their apps, designing better user interfaces, and more through text-based group chats in Slack.

The event will run from November 14 to November 18, featuring 25-minute one-on-one consultations. Consultations are hosted in various time zones and languages.

Group Q&A sessions are also available, and Apple will support Japanese, Korean, and Simplified Chinese for those sessions.

Office hours are hosted in various regions and time zones worldwide, but some are limited to specific areas. For example, the sessions for Ask App Store Review, Ask Developer Technical Support, and Ask the App Store Connect Team will only be available in Cupertino time.

For certain other time zones, Apple evangelists will be ready for consultations that include design and technology.

"We've been listening to feedback from developers around the world about what will be most helpful to them as they build innovative apps," Susan Prescott, Apple's vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations and Enterprise and Education Marketing, said when Ask Apple launched in October. "[And] we've seen an increased appetite for one-on-one support and conversation with Apple experts."

Registration is now open to current members of the Apple Developer Program and Apple Developer Enterprise Program. The company also teased the next round of Ask Apple, which will take place in December.
