macOS Tahoe is the latest release of Apple's desktop operating system, available for download via the direct link below.
Building on the foundation of Apple Intelligence introduced in Sequoia, macOS Tahoe focuses on deep automation, proactive assistance, and refining the user interface.
New features

- Redesigned Control Center: A more modular and customizable Control Center that brings iOS-style widgets directly into the menu bar dropdown.

- Next-generation privacy features with local-only AI tracking prevention.
- Seamless tab handoff now instantly mirrors your active tabs across nearby devices without needing to open a menu.
- Files & Finder: Natural language search in Finder. You can now search for files using descriptions like "the presentation I was working on last Tuesday with the blue graph."
- Health & Wellness: The Health app is now fully native on the Mac, syncing activity, sleep, and mindfulness data across all your devices.
Gaming
Game Porting Toolkit 3 further bridges the gap for AAA titles, offering near-native performance for translated Windows games, and introducing native support for hardware-accelerated ray tracing on M3 and newer chips.
