“macOS Ventura includes powerful features and new innovations
that help make the Mac experience even better. New tools like Stage
Manager make focusing on tasks and moving between apps and windows
easier and faster than ever, and Continuity Camera brings new
videoconferencing features to any Mac, including Desk View, Studio
Light, and more,” said Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice
president of Software Engineering. “With helpful new features in
Messages, state-of-the-art search technologies in Mail, and an
updated design for Spotlight, Ventura has so much to offer and
enriches many of the ways customers use their Macs.”
A New Way to Work Across Apps and Windows
Stage Manager automatically organizes open apps and windows so
users can concentrate on their work and still see everything in a
single glance. The current window users are working in is displayed
prominently in the center, and other open windows appear on the
left-hand side so they can quickly and easily switch between tasks.
Users can also group windows together when working on specific
tasks or projects that require different apps. Stage Manager works
in concert with other macOS windowing tools — including Mission
Control® and Spaces® — and users can now easily get to their
desktop with a single click.
Apple Devices Working Together with Continuity
Continuity Camera now gives Mac customers the ability to use
their iPhone as a webcam, and unlocks new capabilities that were
never possible before on a webcam. With the power of Continuity,
Mac can automatically recognize and use the camera on iPhone when
it is nearby — without the need to wake or select it — and iPhone
can even connect to Mac wirelessly for greater flexibility.3
Continuity Camera delivers innovative features to all Mac computers
including Center Stage™, Portrait mode, and the new Studio Light —
an effect that beautifully illuminates a user’s face while dimming
the background. Plus, Continuity Camera taps into the Ultra Wide
camera on iPhone to enable Desk View, which simultaneously shows
the user’s face and an overhead view of their desk — great for
creating DIY videos, showing off sketches over FaceTime, and so
much more.4
Handoff now comes to FaceTime, allowing users to start a
FaceTime call on one Apple device and seamlessly transfer it to
another Apple device nearby. Users can be on a FaceTime call on
iPhone or iPad, then move the call to their Mac with just a click,
or start a call on their Mac and shift to iPhone or iPad when they
need to continue on the go.
Powerful Updates to Key macOS Apps and Features
Safari offers the fastest and most power-efficient browsing
experience on the Mac, along with trailblazing privacy features. In
macOS Ventura, Safari introduces a powerful new way for users to
browse together: With shared Tab Groups, friends, family, and
colleagues can share their favorite sites in Safari and see what
tabs others are looking at live. Users can also build a list of
bookmarks on a shared Start Page, and even start a Messages
conversation or FaceTime call right from Safari — great for
planning a trip or researching a project together.
In the biggest overhaul to search in years, Mail now uses
state-of-the-art techniques to deliver more relevant, accurate, and
complete results. Users can quickly find what they are looking for
as soon as they click into search, including recent emails,
contacts, documents, photos, and more, all before they even start
typing. Users can also schedule emails and even cancel delivery
after hitting send,5 and Mail now intelligently detects if items
such as an attachment or cc’d recipient is missing from their
message. In Mail, users can set reminders to come back to a message
at a particular date and time, and receive automatic suggestions to
follow up on an email if there has been no response.
Messages on the Mac now includes the ability to edit or undo a
recently sent message, mark a message as unread, or even recover
accidentally deleted messages.6 New collaboration features make
working with others quick and seamless. Now, when a user shares a
file via Messages using the share sheet or drag and drop, they can
choose to share a copy or collaborate. When they choose to
collaborate, everyone on a Messages thread is automatically added.
And when someone makes an edit to the shared document, activity
updates appear at the top of the thread. Users can also join
SharePlay sessions from their Mac right in Messages, so they can
chat and participate in synchronized experiences.
Spotlight® includes an updated design that makes navigation
easier, new features that provide a more consistent experience
across Apple devices, and Quick Look for quickly previewing files.
Users can now find images in their photo library, across the
system, and on the web. They can even search for their photos by
location, people, scenes, or objects, and Live Text™ lets them
search by text inside images. To be even more productive, users can
now take actions from Spotlight, like starting a timer, creating a
new document, or running a shortcut. And Spotlight now includes
rich results for artists, movies, actors, and TV shows, as well as
businesses and sports.
With iCloud® Shared Photo Library, users can now create and
share a separate photo library among up to six family members, so
everyone can enjoy all of their family photos. Users can choose to
share all of their existing photos from their personal libraries,
or share based on a start date or people in the photos. To help
keep their Shared Library up to date, users will receive
intelligent suggestions to share relevant photo moments that
include participants in the library and any other people they
choose. Every user in the Shared Photo Library can add, delete,
edit, or favorite the shared photos and videos, which will appear
in each user’s Memories and Featured Photos so that everyone can
relive more complete family moments.
More Secure Browsing in Safari
Browsing in Safari is even safer with passkeys, next-generation
credentials that are more secure, easy to use, and designed to
replace passwords. Passkeys are unique digital keys that stay on
device and are never stored on a web server, so hackers can’t leak
them or trick users into sharing them. Passkeys make it simple to
sign in securely, using Touch ID® or Face ID® for biometric
verification, and iCloud Keychain® to sync across Mac, iPhone,
iPad, and Apple TV® with end-to-end encryption. They will also work
across apps and the web, and users can even sign in to websites or
apps on non-Apple devices using their iPhone.
Immersive Gaming Experiences
The power of Apple silicon enables every new Mac to run AAA
games with ease, including upcoming titles such as EA’s GRID
Legends and Capcom’s Resident Evil Village. And since Apple silicon
also powers iPad, game developers can bring their AAA games to even
more users, like No Man’s Sky from Hello Games, which is coming to
both Mac and iPad later this year.
Metal 3, the latest version of the software that powers the
gaming experience across Apple platforms, introduces new features
that take the gaming experience on Mac to new heights and unleash
the full potential of Apple silicon for years to come. MetalFX
Upscaling enables developers to quickly render complex scenes by
using less compute-intensive frames, and then apply resolution
scaling and temporal anti-aliasing. The result is accelerated
performance that provides gamers with a more responsive feel and
graphics that look stunning. Game developers also benefit from a
new Fast Resource Loading API that minimizes wait time by providing
a more direct path from storage to the GPU, so games can easily
access high-quality textures and geometry needed to create
expansive worlds for realistic and immersive gameplay.
More Great Experiences Coming with macOS Ventura
- Live Text uses on-device intelligence to recognize text
in images across the system, and now adds support for paused video
frames, as well as Japanese and Korean text. Users can also now
lift the subject away from an image and drop it into another app.
And Visual Look Up expands its recognition capabilities to
now include animals, birds, insects, statues, and even more
landmarks.
- The Weather and Clock apps, with all the features
users know and love from iPhone, have been optimized for Mac.
- New accessibility tools include Live Captions for all
audio content, Type to Speak on calls, Text Checker to support
proofreading for VoiceOver users, and more.7
- System Settings is the new name for System Preferences,
and comes with a refreshed and streamlined design that is easier to
navigate and instantly familiar to iPhone and iPad users.
- macOS security gets even stronger with new tools that
make the Mac more resistant to attack, including Rapid Security
Response that works in between normal updates to easily keep
security up to date without a reboot.
