Windows 8 or 10, or iPad Air 2 users with iOS 9, will be familiar with Split View. It’s nothing you can’t already do manually or with third-party programs such as Moom, but it hides menus and other unnecessary program features to fill the screen with more of the text or work you’re trying to get done.
Drag a window to the top of the screen or hold down the green “maximise” button to organise the windows and drag them on to a new space or on top of a pre-existing one to get going. Spotlight search can now be moved and enlarged and responds to natural language searches such as “files I worked on in March” or “email I sent to Alex about adblocking” – which sounds great, but in practice just skips out a bit of syntax such as “subject: adblocking”.Įl Capitan improves full-screen window management with Split View, taken straight from iOS, allowing two apps to fill one screen with a resizing line down the middle just like Windows 8.

Typing out natural language feels a little strange, but mostly does what it is meant to and makes finding files or emails a little easier.
