That could… should… would include a Marzipan Shortcuts app for the Mac to match the one on iPad, and improved Siri support, so the Mac's assistant capabilities better match those of iPad, and Shortcuts can provide a non-crippled experience.

But, the workflows, they're everywhere among the nerdy.Īnd, according to Gui, this year we're getting Shortcuts for the Mac. A year later, and I still haven't seen many suggestions, which means I don't think Shortcuts have seen a lot of on boarding. I hopped the suggested part would serve as an easy entry point for casual users even as the workflow part seriously amped up the power for power users. Last year, Apple rebooted Workflow as Siri Shortcuts and brought not only automation to iOS, but suggested actions and even voice triggers. Get us to the future faster and dog food everything as much as possible so Apple hits all the pain points before, or at least alongside, developers. iMessage effectsĭoes that mean the several years old AppKit app will get updated to support them, or a new Marzipan app will just bring the UIKit functionality on over? That's my guess for my workflow for pretty much everything Marzipan as well, same as it's been with Continuity Handoff in the past - Watch for quick glances, iPhone for access anywhere, iPad for aggregation and easy browsing, and Mac for hardcore editing. If it has all the features Gui says it might, while I'll likely use it far more on iPhone and even iPad, it'll be great to be able to manage it on the Mac. Thanks to Marzipan, that's apparently coming to macOS 10.15 as well.

There's a new, combined Find my iPhone and Find my Friends app that's apparently coming to iOS 13 - link in the description – amped up with the ability to find other stuff tagged with Apple's version of a Bluetooth tile dongle.

And if they include a way to swap out split view apps without having to destroy and re-create the entire split view, after hunting down that one app that always, perplexingly, goes full screen off screen, I will personally send a proper Montreal poutine recipe to Caffe Macs. Split View Marzipan apps will be able to be resized or reset through the divider, like on iOS, which already be an improvement to the announced-and-promptly-abandoned split view mechanic currently on macOS. Support will be there for multiple Marzipan windows, which has always been a key part of the Mac user experience.

In a separate story on 9to5, Gui said there'll be Mac-specific API – application programming interfaces - to support the Mac menubar and the MacBook Pro Touch Bar, among other things. I know it scares a lot of Mac traditionalists, probably as much as Cocoa scared the classists, but it also feels very much like the near-future, at least until the real next NeXT comes along, and that means it really has to be insanely great.


But much closer to Marzipan as it was originally and always intended to be. Not until it comes out of beta and developers can start shipping off of it. So much better it'll help flashy thing last year's version out of our brain boxes. My understanding is that this version of Marzipan will be much better.
