What’s new in macOS Tahoe

A Mac screen shows a desktop picture with a lake and mountains and a welcome message for users to get started using macOS Tahoe.

Personalise your Mac in new ways

The reimagined design of macOS features Liquid Glass, which brings focus to your content while keeping the familiar Mac feel. Customise app icons with a colourful tint or a clear look, and give folders a distinctive look with colours, symbols and emoji.

Customise the look of folders and files on Mac

Make or receive a call on your Mac

Browse and take action in Spotlight

Spotlight lets you browse your apps, files and the contents of your Clipboard. You can also take hundreds of actions directly from results without lifting your hands off the keyboard — and use quick keys to perform actions even faster.

Search for anything with Spotlight
