macOS 26 Tahoe is Apple's 22nd major release of macOS, named after Lake Tahoe on the California–Nevada border, continuing the tradition of Californian landmark. In a new versioning strategy, Apple aligned major macOS releases with the year of launch—hence 26 for this 2025 release.

Design – Liquid Glass
• Introduces a fresh "Liquid Glass" aesthetic: enhanced translucency, soft gradients, rounded corners, and transparent menu/control panels with subtle color tinting
• Users can now personalize folder colors, add emoji/symbol overlays, and even unify app icons' tints to match wallpapers
• The redesign extends across the Menu Bar, Control Center, Dock, sidebars, and core apps like Safari, Photos, and FaceTime

Spotlight & Productivity
• The biggest Spotlight overhaul yet—Spotlight becomes a power tool: filters by file type, natural language search, clipboard history, and support for actions like sending emails, creating notes, launching podcasts, and custom Quick Keys
• Launchpad has been retired in favor of app launching directly through Spotlight

Apple Intelligence & Automation
• Expanded Apple Intelligence features now include: live translation in Messages, FaceTime, Phone; advanced Shortcuts with AI integration (e.g. text summarization, image generation via ChatGPT or on-device engine)
• Genmoji (custom animated emojis) and Image Playground support new styles like oil painting, vector art, etc.
Continuity & Calls
• For the first time, a Phone app arrives on Mac: make/receive calls, view contacts, call history, voice mail, all synced via iPhone
• New telephony features include Call Screening, Hold Assist, and Live Translation during calls—all controlled from your Mac
• Live Activities from iPhone apps (food delivery, rideshare, flight updates, sports) now appear in Mac's menu bar and support seamless interaction

Games App & Game Overlay
• The new Games app centralizes Mac gaming—integrating Apple Arcade, App Store titles, and even highlighting big AAA games (e.g. Cyberpunk 2077)
• Game Overlay enables on-the-fly chat, settings adjustments, and invites without exiting full-screen gameplay
• A Low Power Mode and Metal 4 support help boost performance and battery life during gaming

Accessibility & Utilities
• Magnifier on Mac streams iPhone camera to the Mac for zoomed-in viewing—complete with color/contrast filters
• Vehicle Motion Cues display visual indicators to reduce motion sickness when using Mac in motion
• Braille Access brings a refreshed Braille UI, support for Live Captions, and improved navigation
• Accessibility Reader offers a system-wide read aloud mode with text customization

Compatibility & System Support
• Compatible with Apple Silicon Macs (M1 and later) and select Intel models with T2 chips—but it's the final macOS version to support Intel processors
• Dropped support for older Macs (2017 iMac Pro, 2018 Mini/Pro models, 2019 & early 2020 Intel MacBooks/iMacs)
