OS X 10.11 will have a control center, iOS 9 will support older A5 devices

It is reported that Apple introduced the control center interface during the development stage of OS X 10.10, but it was later cancelled. But according to 9to5Mac, in the upcoming next-generation OS X 10.11, Apple will bring back a control center similar to that on iOS, new security features, and system-level interface optimization adjustments - including a comprehensive font change to the San Francisco font used on Apple Watch.

According to reports, OS X's Control Center will appear on the left side of the system screen, providing quick system adjustment options including music control, brightness, etc. It is already running smoothly during the development stage. The above is a screenshot of the Control Center that appeared during the development stage of OS X Yosemite in 2014.

In addition, Apple will also fully add a kernel-level security system to the new generation of OS X and iOS, called "Rootless", which aims to block malicious program attacks and prevent users from accessing certain sensitive data and certain protected files. In iOS 9, the "Rootless" system may be permanently enabled to combat jailbreaking. Users can choose to turn it off in OS X. Apple also plans to provide more IMAP-based applications on iCLoud Drive, such as memos, reminders, etc., and further improve wireless and cloud service encryption measures and security.

It is also reported that Apple is adding optimized support for older hardware when developing iOS 9. It can support iPhone 4s and first-generation iPad mini with A5 processor chip, iPad 2 and fifth-generation iPod touch can also run smoothly.

Finally, the report said that the Swift language will be significantly upgraded, increasing the stability of the "Application Binary Interface (ABI)", making the next generation of iOS/OS X systems pre-installed with Swift application binary codes, making Swift applications more space-efficient and data-efficient.
