[email protected]With Shortcuts on the Mac, you get the
same drag-and-drop functionality that
makes Shortcuts so easy to use on iPhone.
The app also come with a rich gallery
of prebuilt shortcuts just for Mac. In the
Shortcuts editor, you’ll find it is easy to
link together a series of actions for making
shortcuts for your specific workflows.
Don’t worry if you’re a fan of the old
Automator – it’s not going anywhere just
yet. While it is transitioning to Shortcuts,
it will still continue to be supported, but
you can import your Automator workflows
into Shortcuts in order to make the
switchover easier.
The final big change is to the Mac’s built-
in browser, Safari. It is still the fastest
internet browser out there, and it is going
to become even more streamlined. It has
had a complete makeover, so the interface
looks less cluttered. The main change is
that the tabs and search bar have been
integrated, which frees up a lot of space,
meaning the browser interface doesn’t get
in the way as much. The new combined
search and tab bar also takes on the
background colour of the web page, so it
feels like part of the page you are viewing.
Open browser tabs can also be stored
together in new Tab Groups in a menuthat appears down the left-hand side of
the Safari browser. These groups of open
tabs can be used for organising research
into a particular topic, like a holiday you’re
thinking of taking, and stored together or
easily shared with friends and family.
You don’t need to worry that macOS
Monterey will only support the latest
Macs with M1 chips either. macOS
Monterey will support the broadest lineup
of Macs in history, including the latest
iMac, MacBook Air, 13-inch MacBook
Pro, and Mac mini, as well as Apple’s
Intel-based Macs. You can expect macOS
Monterey in autumn 2021.A redesigned Safari browser and
new sharing options give macOS
Monterey a boost.
