Full Transcript of Apple's WWDC 2014 Keynote: OS X 10.10, iOS 8, and More [Keynote Ended]

[SHNXX]

Ugh they're moving on from health.
I guess nothing exciting for me as an apple stock owner.

These are all evolutionary changes which are nice but nothing amazing.

iOS 8: messages upgrade.

2014: the year of texting innovation.

Its much needed. I hate scrolling to find images. I also hate group messages when you are in a meeting and your phone doesn't stop vibrating/ringing.

 

[H2SO4]

Sorry, missed everything so far.

Anyways. Can I now use an iPad as a front end for my Mac, (Natively)? That is to say I switch my Mac on and leave it. I walk around the house with my iPad and use that to do everything I can do from the Mac.

 

[hybrid_x]

pretty sure thats the bezel of the iPhone 5s

Pretty sure it's not. It looks more like the current-generation iPod Touch than the iPhone.

 

[Fangio]

Yosemite turned out really surprising. Many useful features, much better than expected.

 

[LordVic]

Not really sure how you come to that conclusion. The difference in proportion clearly means that more Mac users have had interest in upgrading to Mavericks. Or, in another words, that Apple did something with Mavericks that made it attractive, which Microsoft did not succeeded in doing with Windows 8. Even though the main factor is likely to be the price. I mean, there is no doubt that most of what Tim says is pure marketing, but these numbers at least absolutely make sense as a benchmark to me .

And — its not only Windows users that are blocked from upgrading for business reasons. My servers still run on Snow Leopard because updating from it would break many software dependencies which are crucial for us.

all that shows is that using the numbers in a keynote like this is exactly what I said it was. FUD.

there are way too many numbers, variables, values, stats for tim Cook to just willy nilly throw it up there. by doing so, he's attempting to prey on general ignorance of the market and the variables behind it.

So why did he bring it up if not to try and take a potshot at windows and pump up OSx?

 

[jbachandouris]

So glad I'm not there. I would not be able to applaud at the not-so exciting parts. Which so far, is most of it.

 

[carjakester]

permission from parents is pretty cool for family sharing.

 

[TsunamiTheClown]

The family stuff is really pretty needed, looks nice.

Family sharing seems like it could be pretty useful. I'm not a family guy (yet) though.

 

[mojolicious]

Family Sharing is a biggie if you have a family.

Less of a biggie if you had your family rather too enthusiastically, given the six user limit.

 

[TsMkLg068426]

Just wait parents will sue again for kids downloading without their permission even with the new parental control

 

[Exhale]

No, you can just pass along data from one app equivalent from another. If one platform is more capable, you'll still need to use that platform directly to take advantage of them.

 

[spyd4r]

Family Sharing is probably one of the most exciting things today.

also, i hope they bump iCloud from 5GB to 10GB atleast for free

Also working with Mayo Clinic, with HealthKit they can figure out personalized thresholds for readings, notify doctors automatically, and more.

I'm not sure it is right to trust your health on a consumer electronic device? I would rather have a doctor tell me my personal thresholds or a trainer, not an app!
Be interesting to see the results of this, and notify doctors? Yeah maybe in America only.

 

[lilo777]

Like The Verge said, I like this new, more relaxed Apple. It's more Californian.

It's strange to hear this from a man from U.K. (unless it stands for United Kalifornia ) While Apple looks good their offerings today don't. It's all about catching up with the leading products (Windows, Android and Google ecosystem). And they have not even managed to leapfrog anything today because the gap is too big now.

 

[Hustler1337]

Finally search functions for photos.

 

[biscuitsxluv]

So glad I'm not there. I would not be able to applaud at the not-so exciting parts. Which so far, is most of it.

Comment made me giggle. They do seem to clap after every announcement. Was this instilled as part of their "training?"

 

[hybrid_x]

they did the same thing when they announced 7.

7? Or 6? No new hardware design was revealed last year.

 

[franswa za]

that phone screen and toggles seem big.... bring on ipnone 6

 

[thadoggfather]

Its much needed. I hate scrolling to find images. I also hate group messages when you are in a meeting and your phone doesn't stop vibrating/ringing.

I do silent mode almost always unless waiting on a call specifically. I check my phone enough I don't need Pavlov conditioning to see what's up on it haha

They should text Dre and he should reply "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU PEOPLE WANT NOW?"

How as a non-developer do I sign up to the OS X Beta?

 

[xmichaelp]

I love the new iOS wallpaper. The iOS 7 homescreen lives and dies by the wallpaper and I thought all the iOS 7 ones sucked.
