Secondly if the receiving person doesn’t have Yosemite (who’s not going to have it?! lol), he gets a link-that downloads the file- which expires in 30 days. A typical scenario for a developer like me. I constantly find myself screaming and shouting at my DropBox, Google Drive and the rest. Please tell me it is coming from a genius. Sending files up to 5GB in size, without having to go through your mail server is an idea that is probably coming from Steve Jobs (wishful speculations lol). Now that is something we’ve all been waiting for years. Actually when it comes to groundbreaking ideas we have to mention this new feature called MailDrop. This is groundbreaking and Apple at its best. Answering calls, sending messages through your Mac. Now is the time to mention integration with iPhone. Not just that but the widget framework works the same way on iOS 8 and Yosemite, so widgets will be available on both operating systems and sync with one another. Great for developers as well as apparently Apple is going to let them sell those widgets in the App Store. Good job done here as we can customise or add additional widgets.

Wasn’t surprised (my prediction earlier) to see that the “Today screen” works the same as it does on iOS. If I have to summarise it: Widgets are become functional/useful again. The new Notification Center in Yosemite is great. My prediction: Apple’s operating systems, iOS and OS X, will eventually evolve into a single operating system. In two words Radically Different.Ī lot of people may complain about the new look – but nobody will be confused, lost bewildered in any way as all apps are in the the same places. We did expect a complete redesign as almost nothing was done going to Maverick. Yosemite does seem faster to navigate, zippier somehow, which is a massive bonus for anyone using a Mac that is more than 3 – 5 years old. Everything feels smaller and somehow roomier – very positive first impression.
