We first put Apple's claims to the test by timing how long it took to switch apps in El Capitan versus in Yosemite, using the Command + Tab command on two identically configured 15-inch Retina MacBook Pros (2.2-GHz Core i7, 16GB of RAM, 256GB flash storage). In addition, large PDF files should open more quickly. Apple says you should see 40 percent faster app-launch times, and up to twice as fast app-switch times, compared to in Yosemite. Swifter Performance, Especially for Power UsersĮl Capitan should give a kick in the pants to your Mac's performance.
Shaking your finger on the touchpad makes the cursor grow temporarily. On the plus side, you don't have to worry about your cursor getting lost in Mission Control or when you have Split View open. I've been complaining about this for years, but no one has acted on my suggestion yet. Too bad you can't close Spaces or apps in the same way. If you add a desktop to the Spaces bar and then hover over it, an "X" will appear in the top-left corner of the thumbnail, allowing you to delete that desktop. The OS is also smart enough to position apps in Mission Control based on where they were on the desktop. In El Capitan, Apple has put everything on a single layer without any overlap, which makes items easier to find, especially if you're using a Mac with a higher-resolution Retina display. It's also worth noting that Windows 10 supports up to four snapped windows at once, whereas El Capitan allows only two.Īs someone who is awful about closing open apps, I often dread using Mission Control to manage windows, because multiple instances of the same app (like a bunch of Word docs) get piled on top of one another in a stack. At least you can swipe sideways with three fingers on the trackpad to see your desktop and other Spaces you may have created. Apple says this is an unobstructed view, but I don't like having to use the cursor to scroll down to see the dock or scroll to the top of the screen to see the menu bar. My beef with Split View is that it automatically defaults to a full-screen view of the two apps. I like that you can flip the position of each window by simply dragging it in the direction you want. You can also easily resize the width of each pane using the slider bar in the middle, although one window would blur as I did that. I appreciated the ability to surf the Web in one window on the left and then drag and drop a link into the new Notes app on the right.
