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

[redheeler]

Split view only available on Air 2.

Now we know the reason it was given 2 GB.

 

[BeefCake 15]

Only Air 2!!! come on...

 

[CooKieMoNs7eR]

So multitasking is only on iPad? What about iPhone?

 

[biscuitsxluv]

Yes battery life!!

 

[neander]

Limited hardware comes back to bite its ass.

 

[JesperA]

Bring in other applications, calendar, notes. Tap on divider and get SplitView. Multi-app, multi-touch. New task switcher, full screen previews of apps. Finger-swipe from the slide brings in an app, "SlideOver"

As on every Samsung Tablet (and their flagship phones with larger screens) since 2013...

So? You think Apple shouldn't do multitasking just because someone else has already done it on another device? Or whats your point? Have never understood that logic of you people always have to point out who was first and "x already has it", "it was done years ago" etc etc

 

[AustinIllini]

Only Air 2!!! come on...

I'm so disappointed it's not even funny.

 

[MagicBoy]

Supported on one iPad. Come on, Apple.

Duh, it's going to need some system resources. Better doing it properly than MacRumors collapsing under the weight of "My iPad lags on iOS9" threads.

 

[Tech198]

AMIGA had better multitasking in 1985.... anyone remember?

Yep,, i owned one. it could also do multitasking

 

[Hexiii]

So multitasking is only on iPad? What about iPhone?

[Chad-VI]

SplitView only for iPad Air2?!! :'( I hate you Apple

 

[Hustler1337]

I thought I heard him mention iPhone as well, but can someone else confirm?

 

[Kajje]

Introducing the new OSX

 

[japanime]

App thinning?! YES!

 

[AustinIllini]

Duh, it's going to need some system resources. Better doing it properly than MacRumors collapsing under the weight of "My iPad lags on iOS9" threads.

Fair point. Either way, though, there will be complaining.

 

[69650]

Low Power Mode. Yes Yes Yes Yes. At last. They read my iOS enhancement request.

 

[Tech198]

you know it will come to iPhone.... everything else seems to one way or another down the pipe

 

[Michael Goff]

So multitasking is only on iPad? What about iPhone?

Would you really want to try to have two windows open with the 1GB of RAM on today's iPhones? :|

 

[Dmunjal]

SplitView only for iPad Air2?!! :'( I hate you Apple

So RAM does matter? Who knew?!
