There is already much more news about macOS Monterey than even Apple revealed in the WWDC 2021 keynote. The new macOS is packed with features that users will want to use - from small to tiny.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

"We have more to talk about," said Craig Federighi at the end of the WWDC 2021 announcement of macOS Monterey. He just didn't go into detail and instead the keynote presentation continued. Below we summarize what Apple has now revealed about macOS Monterey. Although Apple has touted the big changes, users will be left with a few more details in the Details<\/a> find the important updates that will make a difference in the way you use your Mac. As small as they are, once you use them, macOS Big Sur will seem archaic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safari improvements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Both Craig Federighi and Beth Dakin, Senior Manager, Safari Software Engineering, focused on how tabs have changed in Safari. The new position and newly integrated search box are the most visible, most immediately useful features. But the sidebar has also been redesigned to reflect the new emphasis on tab groups. There's also a cosmetic change, with the tabs themselves being rounder and clearer when you use them. Even today, some of the websites you open in tabs will use HTTP instead of the more secure HTTPS. But the new Safari will automatically update them so your connection is still HTTPS. This is all part of making Safari more secure and private. Safari will also offer better privacy protections, preventing trackers from tracking your IP address and building a profile of the websites you use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

notes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Whether you're in Safari or anywhere else on your Mac, you'll be able to use Quick Notes. This is the name for the action of quickly opening a note, which will then be saved to Apple Notes when you choose. This feature is great for anything you want to jot down quickly, or anything you want to keep track of. For example, Safari lets you highlight text or images on a web page and add them directly to your notes. Later, when you return to the web page in question\u2014or open an app where you created a quick note\u2014a thumbnail of the note will appear. It's there to remind you that you created that note. When you're working on a Quick Note, you can hide it on a page, and unhide it when you want to add information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Universal Control<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Notes you create are of course automatically synced across all your devices. Perhaps the most amazing example of how you can share information in macOS Monterey, however, is Universal Control. As demonstrated in the keynote, this is the feature that simply places an iPad next to a MacBook Pro to create a sharing connection. The MacBook Pro's keyboard and trackpad can be used to control the iPad. These devices can be combined:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
