Apple Mac OSX Lion Features

Apple Mac OSX Lion has more than 250 new features, some of which were demonstration at 2011 WWDC e.g:
  • Multi-Touch Gestures Apple has always had multi-touch gestures integrated into the system, but nothing like this before. Apple is focusing on application switching and navigating through your Mac with just your trackpad, simplifying your actions.
  • Full-Screen Apps is introducing new ways to naturally run applications in a full screen mode that won’t disrupt anything on your system.
  • Mission Control that shows all apps and documents you are working on. Allows you to view an overview of your system and applications that are running grouped by application,
  • New Photo Booth with face detection
  • Mac App Store is the now the #1 channel for buying PC software. It’s ahead of Best Buy, Walmart, and Office Depot.
  • Launchpad uses pinch gesture to see Apps in a grid, like iOS. Like your iOS device it contains application pages that are arranged in a grid format that can be organized into folders and update just like iOS applications.
  • Full-Screen Apps introduces new ways to naturally run applications in a full screen mode that won’t disrupt anything on your system.
  • Resume saves the state of your application when you close it. Upon starting the application again it will reload your application exactly how you left it with all settings that you left it with. Mac apps save states, just like iOS Apps. Windows, selections, tools, even highlighted text are just the way you left them.
  • Auto Save eliminates the need for saving a document because the system will save it for you so you don’t forget.
  • Versions provide you facility through which you can view the history of your documents from the time you started, while working with Auto Save. The application looks exactly like Time Machine and acts the same to give you glimpse of the history.
  • Document control auto saves versions, just like Time Machine.
  • AirDrop is peer to peer sharing. Drop file onto auto-discovered user and they can accept it easily. When trying to share files, Apple made it easier when sharing with others Mac’s. AirDrop is in direct competition with applications that share files.
  • Sandbox for better security
  • New Mail app is over-haul of Apple default mail application to create a more user-friendly experience with a larger reading area and a new threaded view of mail conversations.  With searching now we have new search suggestions. Mail recognizes whether that’s a person or a subject… select one it becomes a search token. Threaded email can hide (or show) redundant FWD and RE that clutters up emails.
