macOS 13: Top features we hope Apple unveils at WWDC

Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference is kicking into gear, with the keynote starting off the weeklong event on June 6. While it's an event aimed toward developers, WWDC is also the day Mac enthusiasts look forward to, because Apple takes it as an opportunity to introduce the next versions of its macOS operating system. Though we haven't heard much about macOS 13 from the rumor mill just yet, we do have thoughts on what we'd like to see in the next major revision of macOS.

FIXES, OPTIMIZATIONS, AND STABILITY

If Apple Senior VP of Software Engineering Craig Federighi came on stage and said, "macOS [insert name-of-idyllic-California-location-that-fits-the-macOS-nomenclature here] will feature only optimizations and updates to make it the most stable OS on the planet," dropped the mic, and walked off stage, I'd be very satisfied. A lot of Mac users would be happy, too, because that's all many of us really want: fixes to persistent issues, optimizations to make it run as efficiently as possible, and stabilizations so we can stop worrying in certain situations.

Apple's Mac operating system has long had nagging issues that not everyone experiences-but a lot of users are affected. For example, memory leaks (fave.co/3MDOHeh) are still problematic for a large segment of Mac users. You can find a lot of online suggestions for fixes from fellow users, but the problem doesn't seem to have one simple fix.

Alas, there's a marketing risk to this approach, and Apple takes marketing seriously. iOS and iPadOS are constantly evolving and adding new features, and Apple's Mac hardware renaissance makes it nearly impossible for the company to take such a simplistic approach to macOS 13. New features are what Apple uses to show off the new OS, but let's hope they're accompanied by the maintenance macOS needs.
