And for the first time, Screen Time comes to Mac, giving users insight into how they spend time in apps and on websites, and the ability to decide how to spend their time.


New Entertainment Apps: Apple Music, Apple Podcasts and Apple TV

Three all-new apps Apple Music, Apple Podcasts and Apple TV replace iTunes and make it easy and fun to discover and enjoy music, TV shows, movies and podcasts on Mac.

The app also features new show categories, curated collections and advanced search tools to allow users to search episodes by current events, people and even phrases.

The Apple TV app brings together different ways to find and watch movies and TV shows into one powerful app, and features Apple TV channels, personalized recommendations and over 100,000 iTunes movies and TV shows to browse.

Sidecar 

With Sidecar, you can use an iPad display for tablet input to draw, sketch or write with Apple Pencil in any Apple or third-party Mac app that supports stylus input. Sidecar runs on a wired connection so users can charge their iPad as they work, or on a wireless connection for greater mobility, using everything from illustration apps and video editing apps to 3D apps, like Photoshop, Illustrator and ZBrush.


Accessibility

macOS Catalina introduces transformative accessibility features to enable users with disabilities to get the most out of their devices. Voice Control is a whole new way for users to control Mac and iOS devices entirely with their voice.

It uses the latest version of Siri speech recognition technology to transcribe spoken text and enable editing text via voice.

For users with impaired vision, Hover Text displays high-resolution text in a dedicated window when hovering over text and UI elements, and Zoom Display keeps one monitor tightly zoomed in while another at the standard resolution.

Security and Privacy

Now, macOS Catalina runs on a dedicated, read-only system volume, which means it's completely separate from all other data, and nothing can accidentally overwrite critical operating system files.

Gatekeeper, Apple’s technology to ensure only trusted software runs on a Mac, now checks all apps for known security issues, while new data protections require all apps to get permission before accessing user documents.
