With exciting new features like iPhone mirroring, major updates to Safari, hotly anticipated games, and Apple Intelligence, the Mac is more powerful and easier to use than ever before.
macOS Sequoia brings transformative intelligence to the Mac and extends continuity with direct access to your iPhone.

Gaming fans can look forward to a variety of new titles and more immersive experiences. Apple Intelligence combines generative models with your personal context to give you useful and relevant information and simplify your daily tasks.
iPhone Mirroring: Seamless integration of iPhone and Mac
iPhone Mirroring lets you use your iPhone directly from your Mac. Your iPhone wallpaper and icons appear just as they do on your iPhone, and you can launch and browse your favorite apps. Interact with your iPhone using your Mac's keyboard, trackpad, and mouse while the iPhone remains locked to protect your privacy. Check and respond to iPhone notifications directly from your Mac to increase your efficiency.
Big updates for Safari
Safari gets major updates with the new Highlights feature, which helps you easily discover information on web pages as you browse. The redesigned Reader offers a streamlined view of the article you're reading, with a summary and table of contents for longer articles. Videos on web pages are automatically brought to the front, and you have full access to the system's playback controls, including Picture in Picture.
More intense gaming experiences with new titles and features
There are a variety of new games coming to Mac, including Assassin's Creed Shadows, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, and Frostpunk 2. Personalized spatial audio puts you in the middle of the action, while significantly reduced audio latency with AirPods Pro (2nd generation) makes for more responsiveness. Game Mode improves frame rates and power management to maximize your Mac's performance.
Apple Intelligence: The personal intelligence system
Apple Intelligence combines generative models with your personal context to give you relevant information. This feature is deeply integrated into macOS Sequoia, iOS 18, and iPadOS 18 and leverages the full power of Apple Silicon and the Neural Engine.
