MacOS Catalina features a heaping helping of security and privacy enhancements aimed at keeping your data safe. Simply press the space bar while selecting a compatible file on Mac, and click the Annotate tool in the Quick Look window to choose your destination iOS device. You can also initiate Continuity Markup via macOS Quick Look to annotate PDFs and images. Continuity Markup and SketchĬontinuity Sketch is a handy feature that lets you insert sketches directly from your iPad or iPhone to your Mac. Other apps, like Affinity Photo, provide direct 1:1 input via Apple Pencil, which is great for touching up photos, or painting with the paintbrush tool. Now I can view my timeline on my iPad, which allows for a larger viewer on my primary Mac display. I’ve found Sidecar to be ideal for editing videos in the recently updated Final Cut Pro X. Such a setup would previously have been unwieldy, if not downright impossible, but with Sidecar it’s now easy to connect a second display to your Mac with no wires. Sidecar works both wired and wirelessly (within 10 meters of your Mac).Īs you might imagine, such a feature is perfect for MacBook Pro users on the go who want the benefits of having a second display. One of the most exciting new enhancements in macOS Catalina is Sidecar, a new technology that allows you to use an iPad to extend your desktop, or as a tablet input device for your Mac with Apple Pencil.

The list of Catalysts apps available on the Mac App Store is small at the moment, but expect the list to rapidly grow as more apps are approved for sale in the midst of Catalina’s official launch. One such example of a Catalyst app is Carrot Weather, a mainstay iOS app that’s finally available on the Mac, thanks to Apple making it easier for developers to port their apps over.
It makes way for a swath of new interesting apps on the Mac. This means that, for the first time on macOS, developers can easily port their iPad apps back to the Mac.
One of the biggest new changes to hit macOS is the availability of Catalyst apps from third-party developers. Needless to say, macOS Catalina is chock full of new changes and features, so be sure to watch our hands-on video walkthrough, and subscribe to 9to5Mac on YouTube for many new upcoming Mac-related videos. MacOS Catalina is a big new update for Mac users, bringing forth many new end-user conveniences to the table, along with new technologies that allow developers to bring their iPad apps to the Mac. Of course, I’m referring to macOS 10.15 Catalina, the sequel to last year’s release to macOS Mojave. This week marked the launch of the final pillar of Apple’s big operating system refresh for 2019.
