Description: With the new MacOS Sierra

OS X has been with us in name for over 15 years. And it served us so well. But as we look at it alongside its younger brethren, [ LAUGH ] something sticks out. We realize that there's a name that would be so much clearer and so much more elegant. And so We're making it so the name of the worlds advanced desktop operating system is now macOS. [ APPLAUSE ] Our latest newest OS X is macOS Sierra. [ APPLAUSE ] I wanna start with continuity Cuz continuity is like magic. Your devices are able to sense themselves around you and use secure peer- to- peer wireless protocols to enable you to move from one task to another across your devices, just seamlessly. What we wanted to take on this year, one task that we all do many times a day every time we start using our Macs And that feature is called auto unlock. [ APPLAUSE ] So today, when you first approach your Mac to use it, the experience is something like this. And you open it up, you're confronted with a password field. And then you type and then maybe mistype, and then retype your password. And then you're in and using your Mac. But you know, for many of us we already have a device securely authenticated to our wrists that already knows who we are and could tell our Mac and so then when we open our Mac it could be a little bit more like this. And we are in. It's that simple. Apple Pay, we all love using Apple Pay in stores to pay with our phones and our apple watch at the cash register and to shop inside apps on our IOS devices. Of course we wanted to bring this experience to the Mac. So now when you're shopping online You have a pay with Apple Pay button available to you. When you click it, a sheet comes down, actually prompts you to securely authenticate your purchases using Continuity right on your iPhone with touch ID. [ APPLAUSE ] [ APPLAUSE ] And of course this works with your Apple watch as well. So you can authenticate with just a tap on your wrist.
