Apple Launches First Public Beta of macOS Sequoia With iPhone Mirroring and More
First Glimpse of macOS Sequoia for the General Public
Apple has launched today the first beta of the eagerly anticipated macOS Sequoia for the public. This version allows the general public to access the new features of the operating system before its official autumn launch. The content of this public beta matches that of the third beta developed for developers. Public beta testers can download macOS Sequoia in the Software Update section of system settings, after registering on Apple's beta testing website and opting for the public beta in the Beta Updates section.Highlight Feature: iPhone Mirroring
One of the most anticipated features of the new macOS Sequoia beta is the iPhone Mirroring feature, which allows you to control the iPhone from the Mac using keyboard and mouse. This feature will allow you to view notifications and use iPhone apps even if the device is stored and locked. Later this year, it will also be possible to drag and drop applications from the Mac to the iPhone and vice versa.Improvements and New Features
macOS Sequoia introduces improvements to window snapping, making it easier to manage multiple windows on the Mac. Safari can now summarise websites and display highlights, and the Messages app supports message scheduling and the use of any emoji in the React with Emoji feature. A new Passwords app has been developed for managing passwords, logins and security codes. The Photos and Notes apps have also been redesigned, with the latter now supporting audio transcription and summaries, and allowing you to type equations and get automatic solutions.Compatibility with Apple Intelligence New Features
macOS Sequoia supports all the new Apple Intelligence features that will also be introduced in iOS 18, offering significant quality of life improvements. Writing tools will help review and improve writing across apps, and you'll be able to create unique images with Image Playground and create custom emojis with Genmoji. The Photos app includes a Clean Up tool to remove unwanted images, and Siri will use AI to improve language understanding and contextual relevance, including consulting ChatGPT for more complex searches. An extensive list of additional features will be available for macOS Sequoia, with more information available in a dedicated summary.
