Hey All.

Just had a question regarding the continuity feature in OSX Yosemite...

The features look so handy and so cool but Im wondering how they will work with multiple iPhones.

For example, at my desk, I have my work iPhone and Personal iPhone.

Can they both be used on my mac.

At present they just use iMessage, with each device sending from its own number.

This I'm not sure of but interested to know.

I have 3 iPads an iMac and a Macbook in the house, so I'm wondering if my phone rings will every device ring or if you can pair only certain devices or even everything if you wanted.

I don't believe handoff is in this build or someone would have found it, I haven't been able to get it to work properly yet.

The System Preferences > General tab has an option to enable Handoff "between this Mac and your iCloud devices," so I'm sure that it will consider which devices you are logged into iCloud with.

Beyond that, it's not very clear.
