Apple has unveiled macOS Sequoia, the latest version of its desktop operating system, at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC).
One of the most exciting features is iPhone Mirroring, which expands Continuity by enabling full access to and control of the iPhone directly from macOS. Users can now fully access and engage with their iPhones right from their Mac. Their custom wallpaper and icons appear just like on their iPhone, and they can swipe between pages on their Home Screen, or launch and browse any of their favorite apps.
Safari, Apple’s internet browser, gets a big update with the new Highlights feature for effortless information discovery on webpages while browsing. The new Passwords app makes it even easier to access passwords and organize credentials all in one place. Gaming advances with a more immersive experience, as well as a breadth of new titles, including Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Frostpunk 2, and more.
macOS Sequoia also introduces Apple Intelligence, the personal intelligence system for Mac, iPhone, and iPad that combines the power of generative models with personal context to deliver intelligence that’s incredibly useful and relevant. Built with privacy from the ground up, Apple Intelligence is deeply integrated into macOS Sequoia, iOS 18, and iPadOS 18. It understands and creates language and images, takes action across apps, and draws from personal context, simplifying and accelerating everyday tasks.
The first beta of macOS Sequoia was released on June 10, 2024, at WWDC. A public beta is expected to be released in July 2024, followed by a general release in September.
