That ended the presentation of WWDC 2014. The best over the past 5 years, and the most intense in terms of software updates - Apple has once again been able to meet and even exceed all the expectations placed upon it. What have we got in the end, and that very soon become commonplace tools in working with gadgets? Let's face it.
Results of the conference
WWDC kupertinovtsy entirely devoted to two of his products: OS X and iOS. Apple has once again shown the world that knows how to surround users with quality software solutions, are equal elements of the ecosystem along with hardware for and tactile impressions of device.
OS X 10.10 Yosemite
That many expected in the last year with the release of iOS 7. Whole year desktop interface system is clearly reminiscent of the days when skeuomorph was not the prerogative of the company's designers.
Design
Now OS X was "flat" and minimalistic, not to slip at the same time in a frank bad taste and excessive simplicity, as was the case with the mobile OS. Many user interface elements have received the effect of transparency, which is to reduce to a minimum you can use the Dark Mode, available in the settings.
Spotlight
He became even better and more beautiful. Now you can look for information not only internally, but also in Wikipedia, for example, or any other popular aggregators her.
Integration with the iPhone and iPad
We saw something similar, but much more advanced than Notifyr, Overlooked by us not so long ago. From now on, you can receive calls or receive SMS from your iPhone to Mac and intercept those actions which are only a few seconds ago did on your phone or tablet.
The technology is called Handoff, and being in the same network device, of course, necessary.
Safari
In addition to the updated design, which is now to minimize the presence of the instrument panel cluster when surfing the web, the browser has got a few other useful features. The first thing worth mentioning - TabView mode grouping your open tabs on the sites. The panel on which they are located is now possible to scroll. It make your life easier if you are used to keep open several dozen tabs.
The search string and enter the address and has acquired new functionality. Clicking on it - you will see a list of your favorite sites, and enters a query - in addition to tips at once will see links to Wikipedia, Bing, iTunes, maps, and news relevant to your request.
In addition to design improvements we saw MailDrop. Using it to share a large file is not a problem. The main thing that it does not exceed the size of 5 GB.
In addition, the attached image, you can edit and make notes without leaving the application.
iMessage
The app has turned into a full messenger. To create a dialogue on several participants, change their names, attach -audio and video files, write SMS from your Mac when the iPhone is just a number. The need for third-party applications will melt less and less.
iCloud and AirDrop
The company got its own cloud servsis that will store photostream and files of all your applications. The price tag is very, very democratic - the first 5 GB of free, 20GB - $ 1 / month. More likely to buy happen anyway.
In Apple also managed to kill the business applications that provide you the ability to share files between Mac and mobile devices in a single network. Now, for this is AirDrop.
iOS 8
Attention to detail - so you can characterize the release of the mobile operating system.
Health
A completely new feature is only one, and she touched the health theme. By HealthKit tied with your personal E-health card, these fitness trackers, insurance and medical facilities. If you do something wrong - the application will notify the physician and will help you in the near future.
Spotlight
All the rest - it's just brought to perfection existing solutions and technologies. As is the case with the desktop version, Spotlight for iOS has become "smarter". Analyzing your location and request it will give up to date information with reference to the application or the page on the Internet. Places, apps, books, music, websites, news - all of it is now convenient to seek his help.
Business "chips"
Mail client has become more functional and convenient. Among the improvements - interactive prompt and easy navigation. Also now you can open documents, not only in standard applications, but also import / export from a third party. Scheduled sending of letters and encrypt messages will also be useful for customers.
Family Sharing
By connecting to this function up to 6 family members - you do not have to buy a separate application for each of them. And the cases when the child "accidentally" downloaded some costly application without your knowledge, it will be possible to eliminate because now he will have to first ask permission from the head of the family.
In addition to using Family Sharing, you can keep track of family members, to create special family events in the calendar as well as share photos in a separate photostream.
QuickType
Function completely borrowed from Android. Now the autocompletion will adapt to your input frequency of a word and Swype support and third-party keyboards more in common iOS 8 with its competitor. Unfortunately, the Russian language yet on the list available to QuickType we have not found, but it should appear soon.
The list of what Apple unveiled at WWDC ends. The new Swift programming language, and several utilities to create casual and full of games have received considerable resonance in the developer community.
