It was first <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/678268\/macos-version-wwdc-2025-announcement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced last June at WWDC 25<\/a> and made available for testing through developer and public betas released over the past three months. This will be the last major macOS update for older Intel-based Macs \u2013 specifically those featuring Apple\u2019s T2 Security Chip.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/09\/macos2.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0,0.0099980003999178,100,99.9800039992\" alt=\"A close-up of macOS Tahoe 26\u2019s updated Control Center on a MacBook screen.\" title=\"A close-up of macOS Tahoe 26\u2019s updated Control Center on a MacBook screen.\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"&lt;em&gt;Various UI elements on Tahoe will have a glossy transparent appearance, revealing what\u2019s beneath them.&lt;\/em&gt; | Image: Apple\" data-portal-copyright=\"Image: Apple\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">The most notable update with Tahoe will also be its most obvious. It includes a major UI overhaul based on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/682636\/apple-liquid-glass-design-theme-wwdc-2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Apple\u2019s new Liquid Glass design language<\/a> that will feature an extensive use of transparent effects on windows, buttons, and notifications. Tahoe\u2019s menu bar will also be completely transparent, making displays seem a bit larger.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">macOS\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/apple\/682950\/apple-spotlight-mac-shortcuts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Spotlight search tool and launcher<\/a> will be more useful with Tahoe, ranking search results intelligently based on relevance and allowing users to perform specific actions with apps like sending an email or creating a note without having to actually open those specific apps. If you like to keep your Mac immaculately organized you can now change the colors of folders or add an emoji to make them stand out.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/09\/macos3.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0,0.0099980003999178,100,99.9800039992\" alt=\"macOS Tahoe 26\u2019s new Phone app on a MacBook screen.\" title=\"macOS Tahoe 26\u2019s new Phone app on a MacBook screen.\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"&lt;em&gt;The new Phone app can route calls from your iPhone to your desktop so you don\u2019t need to reach for your smartphone to answer them.&lt;\/em&gt; | Image: Apple\" data-portal-copyright=\"Image: Apple\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">A new Phone app will mirror the functionality of the one on iOS and can relay calls from your iPhone through your computer.
