My only complaint is that the mount doesn't work on monitors. The mount also doubles as a kickstand for propping up your iPhone (great for YouTube videos) and has a metal ring so that you can keep your iPhone firmly in your grip. It has a piece that pops out to clip onto the top of a MacBook the magnet is relatively strong. The Belkin iPhone MagSafe ($30) mount for MacBooks is pretty neat, too. And that's exactly what Apple did with Continuity Camera in macOS Ventura.īelkin’s iPhone MagSafe mount is good for MacBooks, but there needs to be one for external monitors or iMacs.

Use an iPhone as a wireless webcamĪpps like Camo were first to turn your iPhone into a high-quality webcam, so it was only inevitable that Apple would bake the feature right into macOS. On my M1 iMac, searching an inbox didn't take as long as it did in macOS Monterey. For big, bloated inboxes, Mail is able to parse through them with greater confidence. I'm once again a Mail app guy, and it feels great because the new Gmail layout is a disaster in my opinion. These two features didn't leave a strong impression on me when I used the macOS Ventura betas during the summer, but they've made me switch back to Mail. I was a Mail user on Mac for many years, but then I stopped because the features I needed, like unsending and scheduling an email for my Gmail accounts, were only available through a browser.

If you don't have a Mac with a Touch ID keyboard, you can still use passkeys - it works with external security keys like a YubiKey or you can use your phone (even an Android) to scan a QR code and then login through a matched key that's synced to your iCloud account. I made a passkey for my eBay account and now logging into it is a finger press on my MacBook Pro's Touch ID button. MacOS Ventura is a major step toward eliminating passwords, 2FA, and password managers thanks to passkeys, a way to securely log into online and app accounts using Touch ID or Face ID. Passkeys are a step toward eliminating passwords. For 2FA, you need to use an authentication app or get a code sent to your phone. And while two-factor authentication (2FA) adds more security, it's also extremely inconvenient. Passkeys replace logins and passwordsĮxisting login and password systems are terrible because they’re difficult to manage and so prone to hacking.

Not everyone will appreciate every new feature, but as always, there's a little bit of something for everyone. But new updates help sell Macs and add just enough features to keep existing Mac users from going to Windows.

At times it feels like maybe Apple should take macOS off the annual update cycle. Otherwise, macOS Ventura is free and there are more features to like than dislike. The only two reasons I can think of to not update a supported Mac to macOS Ventura are: 1) you have specific apps that could break or 2) you're worried your older Mac will become sluggish.

Reviewing annual versions of macOS is a lot like reviewing iOS or iPadOS: if your Mac supports Apple's new operating system update, there's almost no reason to not download and install it.
