Apple Unveils macOS 15 ‘Sequoia’ with Groundbreaking Features
Apple has unveiled its latest operating system, macOS 15, codenamed ‘Sequoia’, at WWDC 2024. This significant update brings forth an array of new features, including the highly anticipated iPhone Mirroring capability.
iPhone Mirroring Redefines Device Connectivity
iPhone Mirroring revolutionizes the way users interact with their devices. This feature enables users to mirror their iPhone’s screen onto their Mac, granting complete access to applications, notifications, and content. Users can open and use apps, enter text, and receive notifications directly on their desktop. The feature even allows for audio output from the iPhone to be channeled through the Mac, providing a truly immersive experience.
Enhanced Productivity Tools for Multitaskers
Beyond iPhone Mirroring, macOS 15 introduces a suite of productivity-enhancing features. Window snapping, inspired by Windows 11, facilitates seamless multitasking by allowing users to effortlessly drag windows to the side of their screen and snap them into place. This enables quick and convenient access to multiple windows simultaneously.
Presenter Preview empowers users with the ability to preview shared content on their Mac before it is displayed during video calls. This feature, compatible with FaceTime and Zoom, ensures users can confidently present the intended content without any embarrassing mishaps. Background replacement during calls further enhances the video conferencing experience, allowing users to replace their physical surroundings with virtual backgrounds directly through their Mac.
Passwords App: Centralizing Login Credentials
The revamped Passwords app makes its debut on Mac, consolidating passwords, verification codes, and notes. It seamlessly synchronizes across all Apple devices, providing convenient and secure access to login information. The app automatically suggests and fills in credentials when prompted, mirroring its functionality on iPhone.
macOS 15’s transformative features elevate the Mac experience to new heights, empowering users with greater flexibility, productivity, and personalization.
