Mac os latest version release date8/15/2023 You'll also be able to tap the space bar on your Mac to finish words or sentences. KeyboardĪutocorrect is being improved for macOS Somona, delivering better support whilst also temporarily underlining autocorrected words so you can tap to go back to what you originally typed. Additionally, you will also be able to start a document in Notes and finish it in Pages by clicking the share button and then adding different fonts, resizing graphics, or adding video, for example. You will also be able to link Notes together, and view a full PDF - or several - in Notes and flick between their pages. With macOS Somana, your Mac will be able to autofill fields on a PDF with the information from your Contact card. There's also a new stickers drawer that gives you quick access to all your stickers, including Live Stickers which are coming to iOS 17, iPadOS 17 and macOS Sonoma. A new Plus button allows you to quickly share your location or request a friend's location and that will then appear in the Messages chat too, making it nice and quick to see. There's also a new catch-up arrow that lets you jump to the first message you haven't seen in a conversation, and there's new search functionality too that adds filters to help you find messages quicker. Several changes are coming to Messages with macOS Sonoma, including the ability to swipe to reply. Currently you can pin tabs in Safari to help you find them quickly, but Web Apps will allow you to use any website like an app by adding it to your Dock. Search in Safari is also getting more responsive and more relevant with macOS Sonoma, and there's something called Web Apps that we are very excited about. You can create separate work and personal profiles for example, which will separate your history, extensions, Tab Groups, cookies, and favourites, and it will be nice and quick to switch between them. Several changes are coming to Safari across macOS, iPadOS and iOS, including profiles. You can also adjust the frame with zoom and pan controls or use Recentre to automatically place yourself in the center of the frame when using the Studio Display or iPhone as a camera for your video calls. There are also 3D animations for when you react with your hands, like a double thumbs up delivering fireworks behind your head, while a new Screen Sharing picker lets you easily share an app or multiple apps when on a video call from the window you're in. You can choose between large and small overlays, with large focusing on you in the front of the screen sharing, while the small option puts you in a small movable bubble hovering over the shared screen. There have been some great changes to Video Conferencing with macOS Sonoma, including a Presenter Overlay that lets you stay a part of the conversation when you share your screen. Continuity also means you don't have to install a specific app to add a widget if you have an iPhone with the app as those widgets will already be available on your Mac. When you open an app or use Stage Manager, widgets will fade into the background. MacOS Sonoma is bringing widgets to desktop by allowing you to add widgets from a widget gallery and get quick and easy access to various apps, like Home for turning lights on and off, or podcasts for starting or pausing your favourite. These are the features coming to compatible Macs before the year is out. It's a quieter year for Mac in terms of software features than we've seen previously, but there are still plenty worth mentioning. It is likely then that while the features for macOS Sonoma have been revealed at the same time as iOS 17 at WWDC, we could have to wait until October or November 2023 for the final build to arrive on Macs. Unlike iOS 16 that saw its final build release in September alongside the iPhone 14 models, the macOS 13 Ventura final software build wasn't released until October 2022 and the same applied for Monterey in 2021. The developer beta of the software is available to download now, though a public beta of the new software is expected to arrive around July 2023, if previous patterns are followed. The company also revealed a number of hardware announcements for Mac, including a 15-inch MacBook Air, an upgraded Mac Studio and an Apple Silicon version of the Mac Pro.
