This year’s Apple developer event, WWDC22, is already a reality and the Cupertino company has shown the best advances to be found in its different operating systems (among other things). If you are a fan of Apple, we will tell you what you will be able to enjoy on your devices to get more games out of them thanks to the software. The first touchstone, iOS 16 The operating system for iPhones always has a presence at this event, and things have not changed at all. With a delivery date in September and October 2022, as expected, eye-catching features are added, such as a substantial improvement in the lock screen that will be more customizable (with a choice of fonts and colors). Also, notifications are more visual and useful because more information is displayed. Other novelties that you will find in the new version of the operating system for Apple smartphones are the following: Widgets can be on the lock screen, so they are more useful New dictation tools that are more effective and precise when recognizing the voice. traditions are added with the camera in real time Ability to edit messages that have already been sent in the Messages application Apple Maps now allows you to create routes with several preset stops on it and has an improved interface The Family tool is improved, where it will even be possible to share the books each member of the group has. The Photos app now allows automatic Family group sharing. Apple Pay Later: A feature that allows you to split purchases into up to four payments of equal value. The watchOS 9 operating system, the second great novelty The development especially dedicated to Apple smart watches has also had its own renewal. Among the most important improvements you will find are that better options are added to the screens that the clock shows (those called watchfaces) and, in addition, new types of training are added for those who use Apple’s own application. In addition, data collection has been improved, as well as the synchronization of the device with other members of the Apple family, such as the iPhone. There are even advances in the phone synchronization application (with tools to always stay active and fit). By the way, an improvement in autonomy has been commented, but without knowing specific data about this… but this is always welcome There are also news in computers The greatest novelty is the arrival of the Apple M2 processor, which represents a capital advance for the increase in the performance of the computers of the Cupertino company. Some of its advances are better energy efficiency, lowering its consumption by a quarter. In addition, the power is almost doubled in some cases, so we are talking about a very important qualitative leap (even in the GPU, it is 25% more capable in the most demanding environments). It has been suggested that one of the first Apple laptops to use the mentioned component will be the MacBook Air, so fans of these laptops have a new object of desire. It comes in different colors and with crucial advances, such as a new, more stylized design with a thickness of just 11 millimeters. It brings back the Magsafe, a surprise that was expected, and it does not lack a 13.6-inch Liquid Retina screen. There are also improvements to the camera with an increase in resolution – it doubles – and the audio consists of two speakers that have been repositioned for Spatial Audio compatibility. They could not miss Touch ID and an improvement in performance that the company itself indicates is 20% higher than the generation with the M1 processor. oh! And its autonomy is brutal: nothing less than 18 hours -and it does not lack fast charging-. They can be had from $1,099. It has also been indicated that a new MacBook Pro is coming that has Apple’s M2 processor and that it has a starting price of $1,199, which is lower than the usual cost of these computers. What’s new in macOS With the new name of Ventura (which will be official in October), the operating system for Apple computers has a very significant advance in its ability to multitask. Now it is faster and more efficient to run it and the change of applications is done with a different side interface that is very attractive and functional. This way choosing what you want to use is more intuitive and the name of this function is Stage Manager. Spotlight also advances, since it is much more powerful when it comes to finding what you are looking for both locally and on the Internet. In addition, the presentation of the results is better so that you do not have any doubts when choosing the one that best suits your needs. Other interesting advances are not lacking, such as the following: Better searches in the mail client, always combined with the iPhone. Safari improves its energy efficiency and is much better in terms of privacy. It remains as a fast browser in any type of request. Passkeys arrives to organize, centralize and keep safe the passwords that you have in the cloud. In addition, it is not possible to be attacked by phishing, so we are talking about a vital advance for security reasons. The latest big announcement: ipadOS 16 The most important thing to look for in this new iteration is to improve productivity with Apple tablets. To achieve this, everything that has to do with multitasking is especially enhanced, which brings this development almost dangerously close to macOS. Besides, something essential in the new version of this operating system is the ability to resize the size of the windows at will. It does not lack Stage Manager, which works the same as desktop development, and iPad models with the M1 processor gain better performance when it comes to adapting to external monitors that tablets are known for. A couple of additional details of this development, which will arrive at the end of 2022, is that it includes the Weather application and applications such as Corre or iMessage receive considerable advances to optimize its use. >
