Following the latest mantra of Big Tech to always have the newest digital whatever, during the WWDC 2024 event in Cupertino APPLE announced macOS Sequoia, the latest and greatest version of its macOS. This version delivers another interesting set of features (especially iPhone mirroring and automatic window tiling) that will continue to dazzle APPLE fans worldwide.
The Continuity feature – which lets you continue things started on your iPhone or iPad on your Mac, or vice-versa – is being extended in macOS Sequoia so that you can essentially mirror your iPhone’s screen on your Mac and control it – including its notifications, its screen and, crucially, its audio, which is switched to the Mac entirely – while the handset is locked. It’s a magnificent example of why using an APPLE ecosystem is so magical: it really is just like peanut butter.
macOS Sequoia features autotiling windows, which promotes efficient use of screen acreage – now all open applications will automatically shrink and neatly arrange themselves in a grid! An additional feature is the new presenter preview mode for video calls, with background replacement – if you have to use a video call, at least it will be smooth as silk, with the background colour or portrait of your choice. Even if you’re presenting to clients or talking sideways to your own cat’s rump, macOS Sequoia is on your side.
And with a revamped Keychain, credential management becomes easier than ever through a revamped, cross-platform Passwords app. Safari also gains improvements to help you find interesting content with a single click, AI-powered summaries and tables of content in Reader mode, and a new Viewer video option to give multimedia content more prominence in your browsing experience.
APPLE’s Game Porting Toolkit 2 was announced, which makes it even easier to move games from Windows to macOS, and has improved debugging tools. This ensures that, once again, APPLE is boosting macOS gaming. The company wants the gaming industry, and all of its players, to embrace their ecosystem.
(APPLE also teased an update to the Photos app in iOS 18, and a new Calculator app for iPad.) APPLE’s broad approach to innovation also applies to software. All the new features found in macOS Sequoia are also coming to all APPLE devices.
At the same time, it demonstrates the razor-sharp focus on innovation that lies at the heart of APPLE’s unveilings; a focus that results in every feature of ostensibly every product being designed with usability, efficiency and cross-device integration in mind. From automatic iPhone mirroring to a comprehensive gaming toolkit, macOS Sequoia is the culmination of APPLE’s ongoing efforts to build a network of devices that caters to all aspects of life in the digital age.
APPLE caters to user needs, leverages technological innovation APPLE doesn’t just satisfy demand, leading the tech industry to create the future of the world, an operating system serving as an operating system macOS Sequoia.
While we await the beta release of macOS Sequoia (due this month), and the full release of macOS Sequoia (this fall) it seems that APPLE’s innovation train is still on full a full speed ahead: What does this mean for the future? We know this: no one offers better user experience and no one offers more innovation than APPLE. As long as these standards guide the company, APPLE’s devices will always be leaders in technological excellence and creativity. The APPLE world has just begun its journey to the stars.
