This video was recorded in early July of 2023 (for reference). Right now, macOS Sonoma is in its first developer beta. Not all the new features are available, but one of my favorites is the new video backgrounds that become your screensaver, lock screen, and wallpaper.

Another exciting highlight is the introduction of Family Shared Passwords - a feature aimed at making password sharing seamless and secure within families. POWER TIP: Take the time NOW before macOS Sonoma drops to get your passwords ORGANIZED. Need help? Let me be your guide: http://techtalkamerica.com/techtherapy

Also, learn about the new interactive desktop widgets pulled straight from the Notification Center, how to create personalized profiles in Safari, and how to turn your favorite websites into standalone web apps.

We will delve into the revamped Reminders app, showcasing how it organizes your grocery lists by item type and how this enhances your shopping planning. We touch on PDF-related improvements that make form-filling easier and demonstrate how you can save PDFs directly into the Notes app.

One of the most powerful features is the groundbreaking "Personal Voice" accessibility tool. This feature gives a voice to those diagnosed with ALS or other conditions affecting the vocal cords, enabling the computer to communicate in a voice that sounds like their own. It's also perfect for singers who must go on vocal rest.

Stay tuned as we hint at more features to come, such as the journal app and FaceTime's reactions feature. Share your thoughts and impressions of macOS Sonoma in the comments below.
