New OS X 10.11.4 Beta Adds Live Photos Support

live-photos-osx-10.11.4

As the days go by we get to know new features that Apple has been including in the OS X 10.11.4 first beta which was made available to developers a few days ago. As you know, this version of OS X is where Apple software engineers are implementing the new features of the iPhone 6s such as the use of Live Photos in the native Messages application. 

Until now this option cannot be used and it is in this beta where it has been found that Live Photos can finally be sent and shared through Messages. Those who have enjoyed since its launch of the iPhone 6s or 6s Plus could realize that when they sent the Live Photos by the Messages app and the recipient was trying to view them on a Mac, they couldn't enjoy the motion effect. 

What you could do was insert that photograph into the Photos application of OS X and be able to see its characteristic movement. Remind you that when They send us some Live Photos, these are identified with a small symbol at the bottom

When we drag and drop a Live Photo to the desktop, the icon that appears is static but if we preview it we will see how A button appears at the bottom that tells us that it is a live Photo and that when pressed it will execute the action of the scene.
