Apple’s latest macOS Tahoe introduces groundbreaking features that seamlessly integrate AI, iPhone connectivity, and smarter search tools to enhance productivity. Revealed at WWDC, the update brings a fresh design language called “Liquid Glass”, offering users customizable aesthetics, finally allowing folder icons to match personal preferences with vibrant colors. The visual overhaul mirrors iOS 26’s reflective, translucent style, but the real magic lies beneath the surface with Apple Intelligence-driven improvements.
For the first time, Mac users will see deeper iPhone integration, including Live Activities from iOS appearing directly on their desktops. Whether tracking food deliveries or monitoring workouts, notifications sync effortlessly. The new Phone app on Mac, powered by Continuity, brings iOS staples like Call Screening and Hold Assist, while Live Translation expands to Messages and FaceTime for smoother cross-language communication.
Spotlight search receives its most significant upgrade yet, transforming into an intelligent assistant. Leveraging AI, it anticipates user needs, suggesting actions based on habits or active tasks. During Apple’s demo, Spotlight composed and sent an email without opening the Mail app, showcasing its newfound efficiency. Customizable quick keys (like “AR” for adding reminders) further streamline workflows, eliminating app-switching delays.
Beyond core enhancements, macOS Tahoe inherits iOS 26’s innovations, including Genmoji customization, AI-powered reminders, and an all-new Apple Games app. Messages gains interactive polls and backgrounds, while FaceTime introduces a redesigned landing page. The beloved Journal app also makes its Mac debut, rounding out a robust update.
A public beta launches next month, with the full release slated for fall. Developers can already explore early builds, hinting at a polished, feature-rich experience ahead.
