Live Coverage of Apple's WWDC 2015 Keynote: iOS 9, OS X 10.11, Apple Music, and More

Well, the new OSX has some pretty nice features, can't help but feel they copied the desktop idea from Android? but whatever.. I also can't help but feel the new OSX has been designed with big screens in mind? Not laptops. But that name, oh dear oh dear...

Apple's Google Now rip off seems alright, but nothing amazing.

And are Apple going to try and take on DirectX and Open GL? Good luck.. also that tiny 7% of Windows 8 users is probably 5 times the number of Mac users combined haha.

Halleluia !!!!! apple FINALLY got the hint: iOS9 keyboard shows lowercase and uppercase characters!!!!!!!

Not sure what industry Apple thinks Siri is leading in, most likely the Comedy industry. Asked Siri the other day about something and all it does now is start up a message session when it doesn't understand something. Ask same question in Google Now and it immediately shows me information about what I asked about, 100% of the time. If Apple thinks Siri is leading over Google Now, they are not just full of it, but are in complete denial.

Seems like just a bunch of improvement updates, because well, there's not much competition from Google or MS.

So no competition from Google or Microsoft, what in inspired proactive siri then hmm

 

[redheeler]

The keyboard knos if you're on caps or not!!

So futuristic and unique!

 

[CJM]

Worth it for the photos of Eddie Cue.

 

[Rogifan]

I swear I saw round icons. But I saw rounded recs too...

It looks like OS X 10.11 is now some sort of Arabic language based on the name.

more like spanish

Pretty average so far. Did Spotlight get moved to the left of the homepage? I hope not.

So let me get this right last week google was slated in these very forums bevause they harvest data and scan emails bla bla for google now , yet now proactive is released they will do the same, its all great features and fantastic. How do you think they will get the data to auto fill your calendar, or music searches or time to leave etc thats right good old data harvesting

Wrong!!!

Ewww David Guetta we went from U2 to even worse music. Seriously, there are better DJs out there that actually DJ real Electronic music and ACTUALLY DJ not some pre-recorded set. Tiesto, David Guetta And Avicii are among the worse DJs and Producers. Tiesto use to be grade but he is just a big time sell out I rather see Armin Van Buuren for Trance or John Digweed for Progressive.

There it is—the privacy angle. Good to hear and it's important. But it still needs to work well!

 

[Rogifan]

Hmm...all this proactive stuff is on device, not in the cloud.

 

[neander]

Good.. don't know if i can trust it though (anyone)

 

[TMRJIJ]

Pretty average so far. Did Spotlight get moved to the left of the homepage? I hope not.

It did and it is better that way for me.

And this is what makes Proactive different from Google Now:

 

[Lucky736]

Poo-Tine. I was thinking something along those lines about the WWDC so far, especially the OS X Updates. More like 10.10.5 not 10.11.

 

[MH01]

That's it for iOS ??

 

[scottish]

Praying for Apple Pay UK announcement.

 

[Tech198]

yay 60 million

 

[anthorumor]

Privacy. Yay. Unlike Google Now, which knows you from web searches and probably already has your information sold to advertisers, etc.

 

[bozzykid]

There it is—the privacy angle. Good to hear and it's important. But it still needs to work well!

I doubt 99% of users will care about privacy with regards to the assistant feature. They will only care whether it works well or not.

 

[redheeler]

I swear I saw round icons. But I saw rounded recs too...

No circular icons for the iOS home screen. Few. Having to fix circular avatars on MacRumors is bad enough.

 

[bushido]

lololol of course they bring in a woman to talk about shopping. some would call this sexist

 

[XmeX]

Nothing interested in IOS 9
