10 things we love about Mac OS X Yosemite!


Mac OS X is packed with amazing features, and integration with all your devices to make you more productive! 

Here is our 10 favorites:

QuickType now available in Text Editor

What if you could benefit from the same convenient iOS QuickType keyboard functionality, on your Mac? With QuickType available as part of OS X, typing is easier and faster than ever. One fundamental difference from iOS is that instead of trying to predict your next word, QuickType on OS X provides a selection menu with alternative words.

Voice Over for Videos

A great feature for the blind and visually impaired, is the option of turning on voice over, where available through the "video descriptions" feature.

Reduce Desktop Transparency

Yosemite's new interface, lightens the shadows and uses transparency to create depth and dimension. These effects can be dimmed or turned off In the accessibility settings when not necessary.

No more limits to Apps into Launchpad

Finally the limit to the number of apps we can fit into Launchpad Folders has been lifted, which is great news to users looking to organize shortcuts to their favorite apps.

Open apps full-screen

Focus is important! Apps on OS X can now run full-screen, enhancing attention span and focus on the task at hand.

Widgets in the Notification Center

Just like iOS, widgets can be added to the notification center in OS X, with helpful hints, alerts and information, so you never miss a beat, even when your iPhone is out of reach.

iOS Screencasts


A great feature for content writers, OS X now recognizes iOS devices as recording devices and allows to record and broadcast anything that is displayed on your iPhone or iPad.

iCloud Drive

Accessing your iCloud Drive is now easier than ever on OS X. Share files, and access everything as if it were a physical drive.

Handoff

As one of the most anticipated features, Handoff enables you to work on your documents across multiple devices, between iOS and OS X, seamlessly and effortlessly.

Never miss a phone call or text

Yosemite and iOS are now so integrated with each other, that your Mac and iOS devices are aware of each other, and your incoming calls and messages to your iPhone can now be picked up, and replied to, right on your desktop.
