Apple announced some major updates today in a two-hour keynote at the worldwide developers conference here's a quick recap I'm Nathan side and this is 90 seconds on the verge the next OS 10 has a name and it's Yosemite coming out this fall as a free upgrade as expected the design language is more in line with the new iOS with flatter icons and sharper corners the OS 10 and iOS integration is also deeper than ever handoff syncs your work across devices while airdrop now works across OS 10 and iOS there's also iCloud Drive an online file storage system similar to Dropbox one of the biggest surprises coming is the integration of SMS and even phone calls in OS 10 hey doctor you're on speakerphone with real my Mac so now let's talk iOS 8 the visuals remain the same but functionally with interactive notifications you can now reply to messages without switching apps quick type is Apple's new keyboard but if you don't like it iOS finally allows for third-party keyboards like swype then there's the aptly named help kit and home kit Apple has a lot of partners here for both we imagine it'll get more interesting later this year for developers apples now letting apps talk to one another imagine applying visco filters right into the new Photos app or letting Bing translate a website in safari but the biggest announcement is probably the least consumer friendly Swift is Apple's brand new programming language and it's a lot faster than objective-c while many may not understand the full extent of that announcement it was the one that easily got the biggest cheer of the keynote there's a lot more on WWDC and for that check out the verge coming up I unveil Freud all the new programming language you can use with your invisible friend I really need human interaction
