You’ll even be able to use an iPhone to sign into services on other platforms like Windows.The App Store (also known as the Mac App Store) is a digital distribution platform for macOS apps, often referred to as Mac apps, created and maintained by Apple Inc. The keys are synced across Apple devices like iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV using Keychain, so you won’t have to create multiple passkeys for the same service. This key doesn’t leave the device, and Apple says it can’t be leaked or hacked in any way as it’s never stored on a remote web server. It certainly sounds clever: rather than make up a weak password, Passkeys uses TouchID or FaceID on your Mac to create a unique digital key that is only used for that site or service. Perhaps more essential is the introduction of Passkeys, a new way to create passwords that Appel says might be good enough to replace text passwords. You can also FaceTime and use iMessage alongside the tabs to chat about whatever it is you’re plotting. Every user can add tabs to the group and it shows who is viewing them live.

It’s entirely possible that the comparatively low-powered Intel-based Macs simply can’t power some of the new features in the works.Īpple’s much-loved browser now has Shared Tab Groups which do what it sounds like they do: allow grouped tabs to be shared with others to collaborate and view together remotely. However, there could be differences in the features available.

That said, this year’s update drops support for any Mac older than 2017, while last year’s Monterey supported some early 2015 models of MacBook Air and Pro, and the 2013 Mac Pro, so it’s a particularly aggressive year for Apple.Īpple could stop supporting Intel-based Macs in the near future with its transition to Apple Silicon almost complete, but we don’t see it happening anytime soon, especially as Apple itself has committed to releasing new versions of macOS for Intel-based Macs “for years to come”. While macOS isn’t quite on par with iOS devices when it comes to supporting older devices – particularly when it comes to some specific features – Apple does try to bring new versions of macOS to as many Macs as possible.

macOS 13 Ventura supported devices: which Macs support it? MacOS Ventura is now available to download on compatible Macs as of 24 October at 10am PT/1pm ET/6pm BST. The tech giant said it was inspired by the city of Ventura, California, continuing the naming convention of place names after last year’s Monterey.
