macOS Ventura

The new macOS Ventura, set for release this fall, comes with new Continuity capabilities including Universal Control to simplify moving between Macs and iPads. The most obvious change is the introduction of Stage Manager, a new way of organizing apps on the desktop (see image), also slated for iPadOS 16.

Also new in macOS Monterey is AirPlay, which allows users to play anything form their iPhones or iPads on the display of their Macs. Continuity Camera and Handoff is designed to let those on FaceTime calls switch from or to the Mac from iPhones and iPads. It will also work with other meeting platforms including Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Cisco Webex. The new OS also includes SharePlay, designed to let Mac users collaborate on FaceTime and new search capabilities called Live Text and Visual Look Up.
