OS X 10.11: El Capitan
To launch this keynote, Craig Federighi, senior vice president of software engineering at Apple, said that more than 55% of active users on Mac Yosemite use. He also announced the name of the latest version of the OS desktop, OS X 10.11 El Capitan .
New features in this version include new gestures, and a new way to pin sites on Safari. The browser will also add an icon in the URL bar to cut the music coming from every open tab.
Spotlight will also get a more contextual support. Instead of searching for files by name, you can now describe what you are looking like "find the files that I wrote last June" to bring up the latest documents published at that time.
El Capitan also allow users to share their screen multitasking windows, similar to what Microsoft offers.
Finally, OS X will ship the 10.11 Metal API, improving the graphics for games and applications. Apple states that the gains will be significant.
El Capitan is available now for developers, with a public beta available from July , and free release to the general public in the fall.
iOS 9
Obviously, the mobile operating system has also been updated: taking iOS 9 Again, various improvements have been made..
Among the innovations, the notion of "context" lets say to Siri to perform tasks depending on what you are doing on your iDevice. Siri can also suggest people to invite to meetings or applications that you might like by analyzing your usage behavior.
The new improvements will also occur within applications like Notes and Plans. In addition, Apple announced a new app for iOS called News 9 , which is similar to the provision of Flipboard. News will first arrive in the US, UK and Australia.
Some updates arrive for the iPad. New gestures are added, such as tapping two fingers on the keyboard to turn it into a touchpad. This is useful when you want to drag text into an email, for example.
The multi-media window is also coming to the iPad, much like OS X El Capitan. You can also scroll the contents simultaneously on both screens if that's your thing.
There is a new view "slide over" , so that you can quickly drag another application from the side of the tablet, while an application occupies the entire screen. This could be useful when you watch a video and want to quickly check your Twitter feed. A windowed mode for video is also available.
Last important fact. While it took 4.48 GB download to move to 8 iOS, iOS 9 will simply ask you to download an image of 1.3 GB.
Just as El Capitan, iOS 9 is available to developers today, with a public beta in July and complete release in the fall.
Swift 2.0 and SDKs
Craig Federighi reviewed all of Apple's development kits, and discussed the updates to each. There are new and new frameworks , one for artificial intelligence, another can be used for dynamic lights. Finally, even include a framework for recording video content and broadcast it. HealthKit and HomeKit two platforms already launched by Apple, also get some new features.
Besides these different frameworks , Federighi made one last big announcement for developers: Swift 2.0 is coming, and it will be open source . Compilers are available for both OS X and Linux.
watchOS 2
Before talking about the new version of watchOS, Apple touted its latest figures on the App Store. It recently surpassed 100 billion downloads, allowing Apple to give $ 30 billion to developers.
Regarding watchOS 2 , the second iteration of the embedded operating system in the watch connected Apple makes available new watch faces (dials), as being able to select any picture into a dial, or ability to scroll through a photo album.
Developers can also make their own "Complications" by displaying the data what they want right on the dial of the watch, such as the flight time, the level of charging of a car, or even sports scores.
Users can also turn their digital crown for "time travel" and see the data "past" or "future" in order to know the weather forecast, but also the upcoming appointments, etc.
Other updates include the ability to respond to e-mails, watch videos or use FaceTime audio directly from Apple Watch. You can also tell Siri to launch the application year without ever touching the watch. Data Wallet and transport plans are also found on the watch.
Apple also addressed the new media WatchKit recently tease, as the possibility Apple Watch connect to known Wi-Fi networks, rather than through a connected iPhone.
HomeKit will do natively appeared on the show, so you can control the temperature of your home from the digital crown.
The new WatchKit watchOS and 2 are available now for developers , and for all in the fall.

Of course, Tim Cook finished the keynote with the traditional "one more thing" . Today, Apple officially confirmed Apple Music, its streaming service powered by iTunes . Users can search their contents on "My Music" or find recommendations of the song in the "For You" tab. You will also be able to see the next title.

The application therefore propose songs and artists to discover according to your tastes. Siri will also work with Apple Music, and allow you to specify what style of song you want to listen.
Beats1 is a 24/7 radio station anywhere in the world. It is hosted by Zane Lowe, a star in the UK which was notably DJ for the British radio station BBC Radio 1's ambition is to present Beats1 unknown artists, not to stay in the top 50.
Artists can even use Apple Music Connect to increase their exposure, regardless of whether they have signed or not with the service. They therefore can publish free content, such as photos, videos, but also text, words and music. Connect is open to other social networks.
