The latest version of Apple's OS X operating system, El Capitan, is now available for free
0:05
in the Mac App Store. It's slicker, faster and more powerful, thanks to the new graphics
0:11
API, Metal. But, here are some other great new features you should be using right now
0:19
Windows users have been enjoying split-view multitasking for the last few years, but Apple
0:25
streamlined the process with El Capitan. Now, you can split the screen to run two full-screen
0:29
apps simultaneously, utilising all the space possible with buttery smooth animations. Safari also got an upgrade to make Apple's web browser easier and faster to use. Similar
0:41
to Chrome, Safari now displays a speaker icon to indicate which tab is playing those pesky
0:46
adverts you weren't expecting or videos that autoplay, making it easier than ever to locate
0:51
them and mute. If, like me, you love using your Apple TV with your Mac, El Capitan makes
0:57
it even easier to stream videos from the web to your big screen. All you have to do
1:01
is hit the Airplay buttons on compatible videos like YouTube. Finally, Safari will let you
1:07
pin frequently used tabs to the tab bar, so you can get to your favourite website easier
1:11
than ever. Metal, which was first seen in iOS, is moving on up to make your Mac run
1:17
faster. It helps gamers maintain higher frame rates and lets developers optimise their app's
1:24
shows off its new toys with fluid new animations for mission control. Now, you can choose to
1:29
auto-hide the menu bar and system preferences to make the most of your monitor space. El
1:35
Capitan also features some new, nicer looking gradients in the finder's buttons, some minor
1:40
improvements to Spotlight with weather and stock reports available quickly, transit directions
1:45
in maps and a redesigned, more friendly looking disk utility. Mail has also got a little more
1:51
iOS-like, with a feature to swipe to delete emails using a magic mouse or trackpad
1:57
So there you have it, everything new in OS X El Capitan. But is it enough of an update
