This summer - like the past several - promises to be busy for those of us in the Apple space. The company has said WatchKit will be replaced with native apps later this year, so a mere mention at WWDC may be enough to hold the community over.) (My money is that this is will be their approach for native Watch apps. The pragmatic thought is that some of this stuff will get a mention at WWDC, but Apple will follow-up later in the year in more detail. While the yearly release cycle keeps things fresh - and in step with iOS with features like Continuity - but it feels like just about the time each version of OS X gets good and stable, a new version comes down the pipe.Ĭhances are, of course, that my dream of a slower 2015–2016 cycle won’t come true. Likewise, I’d be fine with OS X slowing down a bit. Apple could tidy up the new features in iOS 8, and polish the rough bits, turning iOS 8 into a mature mobile operating system not a mere rung in the iOS ladder to the sky. It’s interesting to think about what a Snow Leopard moment for iOS could look like.

I don’t think the market will let Apple slow down on iOS, however, The space is competitive, and Android is looking better and better each year. Pundits have said that for years, and that bulleted list a few paragraphs up is a little frightening in that regard. The problem is - of course - that Apple may be stretched too thin.

APPLE SNOW LEOPARD ORDER MAC OS X

While it’s possible that all of these things will make it into the Keynote, it’s a whole hell of a lot of stuff to talk about.Įverything on that list is exciting, and with Apple on the hook for annual releases, chances are iOS 9 and Mac OS X 10.11 are just around the corner. Here’s a list of potential talking points, in no particular order: With WWDC coming up, the annual topic of what Apple will highlight is back on my mind. The difference between iOS 8 and Snow Leopard is that former brought many user-facing features, while the latter only really had one: Exchange support. Swift, third-party keyboards, Extensions, TouchID APIs, better notifications and more showed up with iOS 8. Snow Leopard was heralded as a “love letter to Mac developers.” The phrase surfaced again last year, and was thrown around a lot after WWDC 2014, and for a long list of good reasons. Instead, we’re going to concentrate 100% on the things that affect you, the developers.” We’re not going to overextend ourselves adding a raft of new customer-facing, marketing-friendly features.

The overall message from Apple to developers was something like this: “We’re adding a ton of new things to Mac OS X that will help you write better applications and make your existing code run faster, and we’re going to make sure that all this new stuff is rock-solid and as bug-free as possible. Now they were applauding zero new features for Snow Leopard? What explains this? Many of these same developers applauded the “150+ new features” in Tiger and the “300 new features” in Leopard at past WWDCs. There were even a few hoots and whistles. After the rapid-fire updates of 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3 followed by the riot of new features and APIs in 10.4 and 10.5, could Apple really get away with calling a “time out?” I imagine Bertrand was really sweating this announcement up on the stage at WWDC in front of a live audience of Mac developers. In his review of 10.6, John Siracusa wrote: QuickTime X and Safari 4 shipped with the OS, and things like Grand Central Dispatch, OpenCL and much more robust 64-bit support all shipped with Snow Leopard, as well, no to mention Exchange support, which was a big step forward for the Mac in enterprise environments.Īll that said, however, Snow Leopard lacked the laundry list of new features that OS X customers had grown use to. Serlet claimed that 90% of the projects within OS X were refined between 10.5 and 10.6. There are a sea of complexities under those three tentpoles.

The release was full of refinements and little touches.

Here are the three major points he made on stage: The fact that 10.6 was introduced by Bertrand Serlet says a lot.
