Description
macOS Sonoma brings all‑new capabilities that elevate your productivity and creativity. Personalise your Mac with stunning screen savers and widgets that you can add to your desktop. Elevate your presence on video calls with a new way to present your work that keeps you a part of the presentation. Safari profiles and web apps help you organise your browsing in all-new ways. Game Mode boosts gaming performance. And when you upgrade, you get the latest security and privacy protections available for Mac.
Screen Savers
• Stunning screen savers of locations from around the world seamlessly become your desktop wallpaper when you log in
Widgets
• Widgets can be placed anywhere on the desktop and adapt to the colour of your wallpaper while working in apps

Messages
