Apple's much-anticipated Spring Loaded event will take place in a few hours, which means that we will see several new announcements from the company. While we are not expecting anything innovative to be announced today, some apps are still for the new iPad, AirPods, some other products, and some newer services.

The company has a habit of taking down their stores every time they have to introduce a new product, and the same has happened today as Apple Store has just been taken down. If you head over to Apple Store right now, it will simply display a message that "We’re making updates to the Apple Store. Check back soon."
