With the introduction of macOS Sonoma, Apple has enabled users to personalize with widgets, experience new levels of gaming performance, and gain powerful productivity for video conferencing and browsing.
REDEFINING WIDGETS ON MACOS
Widgets have become an integral part of the Mac experience, and macOS Sonoma takes them to the next level. Users can now place widgets directly on their desktops, providing easy access to the information and functionalities they need most. With the widget gallery, finding and adding widgets is a breeze. These widgets seamlessly blend with the wallpaper, ensuring users stay focused on their tasks while enjoying the benefits of real-time information updates. Continuity, a feature that enables seamless integration between Apple devices, also plays a role in widget personalization. Users can now enjoy the vast ecosystem of iPhone widgets on their Mac, expanding the range of options available to them. Furthermore, widgets become interactive, allowing users to check off reminders, control media playback, access home controls, and perform various tasks directly from their desktops. This enhanced widget experience empowers users to get more done efficiently and unlocks new opportunities.
