Along with the new iOS 12 software updates, Apple has also announced that they will be bringing new features to all computers using macOS. Some of these changes are cosmetic, for example the Mac lock screen will have a larger font and profile picture. However, there are quite a few new apps that will be readily available when the macOS 10.14 update comes out. Apple created a new, more user friendly version of their DVD player app, and it only runs on 64-bit systems. Apple decided to make that change because they dropped all support for 32-bit systems.
The name of the new macOS software is “Mojave.” Mojave provides a “dark mode” to the user, and it automatically adjusts the brightness throughout the day. It also allows the user to stack applications, using a feature called Stacks, on their desktop to organize files without creating folders. Apple made it so their quick look is a photo editor too! The photo editor took some cues from Google Photos in that it will now create stylized photos and clips for you. Without opening some application to edit photos, you can just draw on the picture in a quick view of it!
Apple is fourth largest computer company in the world. A leader in hardware and software, they are making sure that they stay that way with these new software updates.
