Alongside the launch of the first iOS 10.3 beta, Apple has released macOS Sierra 10.12.4 beta 1 to registered developers, bringing Night Shift for Mac, dictation support for Shanghainese and updated Siri commands.
First introduced with iOS 9.3 almost a year ago, Night Shift mode which is currently only available on iOS adjusts the hue of the colors on the screen corresponding to the time of day, making looking a bright screen in a dark-room less strenuous.
Here’s what macOS Sierra 10.12.4 packs…
- Night Shift now available on the Mac.
- Dictation support for Shanghainese.
- Ask Siri about cricket scores, schedules and player rosters. Siri knows about statistics and data from the Indian Premier League and International Cricket Council.
- Updated PDFKit APIs for better displaying of PDFs in apps that use the framework.
