Is it a _ massive_ release? No, but it’s a nice year-over-year improvement to the Mac. It would be a great way to keep things like Google logins separate if you work with multiple companies. I’d love to see this expanding to have unique cookies in the future. For example, you might have a group of tabs for various aspects of your work. ![]() Tab Groups sync over iCloud, so they’ll be available on all your devices.

Then, instead of having to ensure you have the right dongle, you’ll be able to AirPlay to a Mac and present from anywhere in the room. It’ll be helpful when you’re using Keynote to present, but you’d rather use the iPad version. AirPlay on the MacĪirPlay on the Mac seems like one of those features that should have been around a decade ago. It’ll also be helpful for developers who are testing their iPad apps while using Xcode on their Mac. Instead of having to swap between your Mac keyboard and your Magic Keyboard to access it, Universal Control will allow you to control both simultaneously. I see this being useful when you have an app that’s iPadOS only that you like to use for productivity. It lets Mac users control an iPad or even another Mac using the keyboard and mouse of their primary computer. While it remains to be seen when it will ship in production, Universal Control will be a top feature of macOS Monterey. It’ll also be helpful if you’re away from a power outlet and trying to finish up a video call.

While the battery life of Apple Silicon is impressive, any way to extend it is much appreciated. ![]() When it’s enabled, it reduces system clock speed and display brightness to extend battery life. Low Power Mode comes to macOS Monterey after being on iOS for years. I see this feature being useful when in a meeting, and you need to jot down a note and add to it later quickly. You can add links and text content from Safari as well. You’ll be able to quickly add a note using a Hot Corner or a keyboard shortcut. Quick Note is coming to macOS Monterey as well. It allows you to quickly add notes to your Apple Notes database without leaving the app. Quick Note is one of the new features of iOS 15 and iPadOS 15.
