macOS Ventura and iPadOS 16

-

After months of betas, Apple has finally released macOS Ventura and iPadOS 16 into the wild. It comes several weeks after iOS 16 officially launched alongside the iPhone 14 line-up.

On the Mac, macOS Ventura contains a number of interestin­g new features. Continuity Camera lets you use an iPhone as a webcam, giving you access to Centre Stage, Portrait mode, and Desk View. Stage Manager, meanwhile, is a new way to manage multiple windows and workflows in an attempt to boost productivi­ty. And there have been improvemen­ts to Mail, Safari, Messages, and Photos.

As for iPadOS 16, it shares many of the same updates as Ventura. That includes access to Stage Manager, iCloud Photo Library improvemen­ts, modern features in Mail, collaborat­ion tools in Safari, and more. The Weather app finally comes to iPadOS, and Apple says a new Freeform coworking app will be coming later. Stage Manager will also work with external displays later in 2022.
