Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Aperture, the photo editor of Apple will cease to be developed. Apple will focus on Implementation of new "Photos" App That Come With OS X Yosemite. A decision That leaves us without the expected X version, oddly enough, many expected. If it is good or bad decision will look over time. The truth Is that competition, mainly Lightroom has been so strong that never got to be relevant. Let's review as it has-been since its launch Aperture so far.

Keyboards from third

From now on, you can install from third keyboards. If you are bored of QuickType, the new predictive keyboard function iOS 8. This not only gives us the context related to help us write faster, but rather may even save write full words, analyzing and offering a message directly possible responses using language appropriate to the type of relationship you have with that contact. Supports 14 languages.

iMessage

Like Mail, iMessage also assimilated many of the functions of other messaging applications as temporarily mute group conversations, access to a view all images from that thread, share our position, send audio clips... In short, features we take for assumed Whatsapp or Facebook that is actually missing in iMessage.

A new chapter on integration between iOS and OS X

But if what you want is plain and simple innovation, Continuity is the word to remember. The way Apple has managed to integrate OS X and iOS to move from one device to another continuing right where we left off without sacrificing the personality of each. A hit in the center of the target which is enhanced further by iCloud Drive, the file management system that, do what he promised, were waiting.

Health is the first

HealthBook Do you remember? Well actually called Health, but it is basically what we expected, a hub that centralizes all data collected by the sensors of the iPhone and compatible medical accessories.

Sharing our purchases

Family Share is more than a function, it is an advantage of the new Apple store which is a clear benefit for those of us with multiple Apple devices spread between our family. Now we can group up to six accounts under one credit card to share our purchases, and if our son wants an app, receive a notice requesting our permission to proceed. 

Photos

The Photos app has received a major update removing the limit of 1000 pictures and videos synchronizing  from Photo Stream, multiplying tenfold editing and retouching options and synchronizing all changes immediately through iCloud with a new app for OS X Yosemite. Also, if you have connection, you need not even have pictures and videos taking up space to see them.

"Hey, Siri!!"

It is the turn to Siri, and although not shown detail, we were at the moment with 5 features:

• Skill to begin working with just say "Hey, Siri," 
• Identifying songs through Shazam
• Purchase iTunes content
• Voice recognition as we speak. 
• 22 new dictation languages

Update Facebook Messenger for iPhone. Improvements for sharing photos and videos

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Messenger, the mobile messaging client Facebook for our iPhone, has been updated to version 5 by solving one of its biggest problems: the interface to attach content to the message. Now, Facebook has placed much easier carrying gallery photos, stickers and even the camera to the same area of writing messages.

The new interface for attaching photos and videos saves us navigate many menus and panels

Another novelty is that we can now send videos that are stored on our reel, and also improved the contact tab to search our list of friends.

The interface of the talks remains the same, by Facebook's plans to wean your messaging completely from your main application. I do not know if this strategy is the right one, but I have to say that Facebook Messenger has become one of my favorite messaging client for my iPhone.

The flickr group of prototype Apple was opened in 2007 by Sonny Hung, who by then included some 123 photos. The prototype of Hung was a eMate 300 Clear Case.

After having your case and encourage others to include your own photographs, reviewers have been growing in number, but they have already done the photographs that have increased tenfold in the last seven years. The most interesting thing, besides the photos, but is disinterest group, sharing photos on the flickr prototypes of Apple for free.

Besides Hung, the main responsibility, collaborate in this flickr Grant Hutchinson, Daniel Forsythe, Simian, or Jim Abeles. However Hung gained the vast majority of photographs thanks to the sending of all stakeholders who want to involve the prototypes in his possession within this flickr. In fact, everyone is welcome to the group, provided a few simple rules of behavior and I assure the proper functioning and accuracy, largely of the prototypes found. Of course they are samples like this that show the great ability to make a good job that the community has when he wants.
