Apple has released a new update, OS X 10.10.3, that delivers new emojis and the new Photos app.
It’s the third major update to the Yosemite OS. The features delivered in the update have been in beta since March.

It allows OS X users to organize their photo library in the cloud so that the images are available, and easily findable, on all Apple devices.
The Photos app was originally introduced at the time Yosemite launched in 2014. The update is the official end of the clunky iPhoto image management app. Good riddance.
