in this form: ``<username>@<oc-server-url>``. In this example, that is
``layla@remote-server/owncloud``. The form automatically echoes the address

3. Since ownCloud 9.0 your recipient on the other end of the link, on the remote
ownCloud server, will get a notification asking them to confirm the new share.
All they have to do is click the **Accept** button, and it's done.

If the remote server does not have the notification app installed, the recipient
will see the dialog from the previous ownCloud versions.

What's New for Users in ownCloud |version|
==========================================
File upload action is now in the "New" menu in the files app.
* File tagging, and filtering by tags.
(`<https://doc.owncloud.org/server/9.0/user_manual/files/access_webgui.html>`_)
* See all re-shares on files you have shared.
* Auto-fill user and group names when you create Federation shares (:doc:`files/federated_cloud_sharing`)
The Files app has a new sidebar displaying file details.
The Pictures app has been almost entirely rewritten and is now known as Gallery.
Password reset tokens are expire after 12 hours, or after you log in within 12
hours of request a reset.
Federated shares now appear on your "Shared with you" tab.
Groups Listings on Personal Page
--------------------------------
Now you can see which ownCloud groups you belong to on your Personal page in the
Web interface.
Desktop Sync Client Shares From File Manager, Selective Sync
------------------------------------------------------------
The Desktop Sync Client now allows you to share files directly from your file
manager, and has a new graphical selective sync file chooser. See the `ownCloud
Desktop Client Manual <https://doc.owncloud.org/desktop/2.1/>`_ for more
information.

Favorites
---------
Users can now assign a favorite icon to files and folders. Look for
improvements in this feature in future ownCloud editions to make finding and
managing files even easier.
Improved Federated Cloud Sharing
--------------------------------
Federated Cloud Sharing, introduced in ownCloud 7 as Server-to-Server sharing,
allows you to mount file shares from remote ownCloud servers, and create a
"cloud of ownClouds". In ownCloud 8 the process for creating a new
sharing link is easier and more streamlined.
Improved Search
---------------
The search interface has been streamlined and simplified, with more features
including enhanced result set reporting and additional search parameters.
Web Interface Enhancements
--------------------------
The ownCloud Web interface has been improved to make it easier for all users to
access, edit, sync and share their files.
Download Broker Improves Performance
------------------------------------
When ownCloud delivers universal file access to end users, files from many
different document sources are aggregated into a single interface and served to
end users. In some cases, passing all of the files aggregated in this interface
through a single server, ownCloud, slows down data access. ownCloud now
supports direct downloads of files from select storage back-ends, reducing the
load on the ownCloud server without sacrificing control over the files that are
stored in the various back end systems.
