Today, Apple announced OS X Yosemite and a healthy list of new features set to make a debut in the upcoming release. But what Apple didn't say was that a lot of the features are actually available in OS X right now, just not through Apple's own apps. That means you'll need to use a third-party app to gain some of the same functionality.

Case in point, you can already place and receive phone calls on your Mac. And instead of restricting you to only your iPhone, you can also hook up an Android device to place and receive calls through you computer.

The app you'll need to perform such black magic is called Connect.

After buying Connect, which will set you back $1.99, you will then need to follow the instructions to pair your device to your Mac.

The app will live in your Mac's menu bar along the top of your screen. When you need to place a call, click on the app icon, and then dial the number, look up your contacts, or direct Siri to place the call for you.

The call itself is broadcast through your Mac's speakers, using the microphone equipped on your Mac.

I tried connecting an Android device to the app, but didn't have any luck. With the iPhone connected, though, I was able to place and receive calls. There was a bit of a delay on my end, but otherwise the app worked just as advertised.

Purchase Connect from the Mac App Store.

Demoed in a YouTube video, the untethered jailbreak works on the latest version of iOS, though devices with A5 chips or higher apparently are out of the running for now.

An enterprising hacker has jailbroken iOS 7.1, at least as seen on a YouTube video.

Posted by self-dubbed "insane programmer" winocm, the silent video shows a jailbroken iPhone 4 powering up in untethered mode. Winocm takes the phone from screen to screen and makes sure to hit the Settings screen to show that the phone is indeed running iOS 7.1.

So does this mean all iOS users running 7.1 can now jailbreak their devices? Apparently not.

A comment to the video from an account called "All things jailbreak" says the jailbreak works only on devices equipped with Apple's A4 chip for now. That includes such products as the iPhone 4, the 4th generation iPod Touch, and the original iPad but leaves out any of their successors.

The same account claims that winocom and fellow jailbreaker iH8sn0w are working to crack devices powered by the A5 chip. If true, it's only a matter of time before the jailbreak spreads further up the iPhone and iPad chain.
