Features

macOS Mojave introduced several new features and enhancements:

Dark Mode

One of the most notable features of macOS Mojave is the introduction of Dark Mode, which provides a dark color scheme that is easier on the eyes, especially in low-light environments. This mode can be enabled system-wide and is supported by many native and third-party applications.

Dynamic Desktop

Dynamic Desktop is another feature that changes the desktop wallpaper to match the time of day. This feature includes a series of images that transition seamlessly from morning to afternoon to evening.

Stacks

The Stacks feature helps users organize their desktop by automatically grouping files of the same type into stacks. Users can also group stacks by other criteria such as date and tags.

Finder Enhancements

The Finder received several enhancements, including a new Gallery View that allows users to browse files visually. The Finder also includes a new sidebar with metadata and quick actions for performing tasks like rotating images and creating PDFs.

Continuity Camera

Continuity Camera allows users to take a photo or scan a document with their iPhone or iPad and have it appear instantly on their Mac.

Mac App Store Redesign

The Mac App Store was completely redesigned with a new look and editorial content to help users discover new apps.
