One thing that I submitted in the Feedback app was Dark Icons in macOS Sequoia just like iOS and iPadOS 18. That would be cool to see when the OS goes into Dark Mode. Good video Aaron.
Thanks Aaron, Keep up the high quality content!!- Wow some really nice changes with MacOS. That wallpaper looks so so cool, can’t wait to try it when it releases, also can’t wait to try apple intelligence as well, hopefully the newer apple intelligence features come in the next few iOS 18.1 beta and in the final release!
For all: if you do not have a iPhone 15 and higher and you want to have as Focus: Reduce Interruptions - on your iPhone and you have the Beta 15.1 or beta 2 installed, if you set it up here as Focus, it will automatically show up on the iPhone as well. Without it, I did not had it on my iPhone 13
I love this new update! Beta 1 was more buggy and some things didn’t work. Now everything works better. Plus, I love the new Sequoia wallpapers, I just wish that Apple would put a midday and night mode just like the other wallpapers.
@@JesseJones-nv3vd I heard that beta update can cause heating and could affect the overall performance of the phone. I don’t know whether to believe or not. How’s your experience with beta?
@@tns21 It’s been ok so far. Hasn’t heated up like the older betas, macOS and iOS work exactly like the release versions just with bugs here and there.
Hi Aron have you try desabling the SIP (System Integrity Protection) i did that for the app of my Camera the OBSBot Tiny 2 but dont know if will affect on MacOS 15.1, Love you what you do
I appreciate you cautioning about using the beta on primary machines. I want to try them out but you're right, there's a risk involved and I only have one Mac and one iphone. Again, thank you.
If you can afford that machine having to be reformatted and starting over then it’s fine. But if it’s used for day-to-day business or crucial to what you do for a living or to education, I definitely would not use a beta on it despite it being pretty good.
I dont know if its new: if you go under wallpaper and scroll down till the end, for me the Hello Metallic silver and other colors are new, and I absolutely love them-
Apple, if you are listening, please include the ability to get rid of notification badges for iMessage when a focus mode is activated, just as you allow the same on iPhone!!!!! It would be so helpful towards productivity!!!!! Thank you :))))))
I actually really like the new change to the screen sharing. With the new system, Apps that you gave the rights to view your screen can’t spy on you anymore that’s great. It’s quite similar to iOS actually.
If you’ve got just one machine that you run your life on then, no, don’t put betas on that. If you’ve got a spare machine then absolutely go for it and try out all your important software. Things that have broken for me with past iOS betas, for example, include banking apps and provincial ID/healthcare access - would have been very awkward if I was using my main/only phone for betas!
@@tns21 Apple want the beta to be tested in the real world. Users want to test the new OS with the software that they depend on. Developers want to check that their software works and implement timely fixes. So Apple has a beta program. But they don’t want you to mess up your daily work or enjoyment, so they caution you to test on spare computers and phones. If people follow this guideline then everyone benefits.
@@tns21 beta is helpful to Apple and customers. So they do it. But with a warning to users not to run it on their only machine. Many users have more than one computer or phone, so it’s worth Apple’s time and effort to release it with that warning.
I think the sleep bug is gone where the machine crashes and restarts on it's own. I noticed your machine didn't go black and restart. That was always a persistent bug in MacOS 14, all versions.
My favorite out of all so far is iPhone Mirroring, I have apps on my phone not on my mac so it does come in handy. The phone seems to be actual size as well.
Apple added nine Apple related backgrounds for FaceTime in MacOs 15.1 beta 2 and I think the background you choose will now pop up the next time you open FaceTime again (it used to be the blue background)
Can someone please respond: I was wondering if the thing(i don’t know exactly what it’s called) but it’s basically where you can use your iPhone virtually inside your Mac. Is that still coming out and has it came out in the beta yet? Also, do you think it will connect via Bluetooth or network/wifi connection? Thanks!🙏
I'm not sure if this is true, but I feel the apple intelligence writing tool had been becoming super fast after the update on macOS Sequoia 15.1 beta 2 compared to beta 1
The latest public beta fixed an problem in Lightroom where it wouldn’t see your camera, so couldn’t directly import photos. Bought an XQD reader and was able to import straight to my Mac, however this update now won’t see my XQD reader (ironically)
Hi, I wanted to share an issue I've been experiencing since upgrading to iOS 17.0. Not only on my iPhone but also on my iPad when I open and modify PDF files (using the built-in viewer, not any third-party PDF reader). Specifically, when I underline words and save the file to my iPad’s memory, I cannot reopen it. When attempting to reopen it, nothing happens. I also tried opening the files with other apps, such as PDF Expert, but it says, "The file does not exist or is missing."
A big issu , and the reason why I have downgraded my mabook air M1 13" silicone ( 2020 ) from Sonoma to Ventura is that when streaming or playing a movie with the Mac connected to a big screen TV through HDMI it freezes ( first picture stops and only sound . But freezes completely , have to hold the reset-button until the Mac shuts down ) . Doesn't matter if I use VLC or QT . It happens anyhow after a while, done updates and all . And Looked at apple forum amnd others. There is no known solution. I hope this is resolved in Sequia . Big thing for us that uses a TV as screen and also as main screen when using internal as 2nd . Cam You test this , please? No issue in Ventura
All I want Apple to do is make the Os and logic and Final Cut to Utilize all the cores and be more efficient than da Vinci and Reaper daw , logic is horrible for cpu use and needs massive amounts of updates users really want .
On my MacBook Pro M1 Max I had a bug that I couldn’t shake were the Mac wouldn’t charge I lived it in and the orange lite on MagSafe would flash I had to downgrade to senoma this fixed the issue did anyone else have this problem
I don't know about Aaron, but I use Chrome for Gmail and TH-cam. Chrome gives me the ability to scroll to the comments while the video is playing in full screen. I can't do that on Safari.
@@Butterscotch_96 Removed from Safari? Probably. I've only been a Mac user since 2020. My 1st gen Surface Go never recovered from the last BSOD. So I switched to Mac. I have never used Firefox. Edge, Chrome, Bing. I still use Bing for the Daily Wallpapers.
Major problem here! I can’t play any TH-cam videos on chrome, nor Safari. They both lock up and crash too. My computer is screwed right now. Desperately waiting for a new update anyone else have this problem?
Is anyone having this problem with the new update my Siri voice ant talking when you set Siri intelligence, but when I cut it off my regular Siri works. She talks it was working before this new update so I don’t understand what the problem is his name because there’s nothing to download according to my screen anymore, but I can’t hear her voice for some reason she’s not talking let me know if you have the same problem with this update. This is for iPhone 15 pro max
Increasing every year, the amount of contempt for users is off the charts at this point with no signs of slowing. I didn't think it was possible, but against all odds, Apple managed to make _System Settings_ somehow worse by wasting _even more_ space on useless descriptions for specific settings panes as though we all miraculously forgot how to use computers overnight. And now there's _more_ user harassment to even be able to run software we _explicitly_ ordered the system to run. If Apple can waste development resources on this nonsense, they can also spend it on giving me a toggle to tell macOS to f-off. I live in clown world.
I give you a good advice. DON'T install it. The beta 15.1 is very buggy and I lost access to my account. The system is not even finishing loading at the start...
Many people criticized macOS when it was in its flat era (2014-2020), they used to say “I wish that Mac OS X would go back to the skeuomorphic days”…but I understand what you’re talking about.
@@JesseJones-nv3vd oh wow I was not aware of this. When Yosemite came out I immediately fell in love & didn’t look back. The features rolled out in sequoia and previous versions are great however.
Am I the only one who doesn’t like the new look of Siri in macOS? that “pill” shape and the background color is just ugly and doesn’t fit into the design of macOS
One thing that I submitted in the Feedback app was Dark Icons in macOS Sequoia just like iOS and iPadOS 18. That would be cool to see when the OS goes into Dark Mode. Good video Aaron.
That’s what I want too! It would be more consistent with iOS and iPadOS!
Yeah that would be nice
It would be cool if the Sequoia wallpaper would change with the time of day like with Big Sur.
frankly very possible already that they have done for the 3 moments of the day perhaps planned in the next beta
@@pasquale78 It might happen! If it doesn’t, I’m going back to the default wallpaper which does.

Macos 15.1 beta 2 is fantastic. I run it on my Mac mini and everything works just fine.
Its really not for macbooks. Battery life for my m1 pro is atrocious atm on beta 2.
For all: if you do not have a iPhone 15 and higher and you want to have as Focus: Reduce Interruptions - on your iPhone and you have the Beta 15.1 or beta 2 installed, if you set it up here as Focus, it will automatically show up on the iPhone as well. Without it, I did not had it on my iPhone 13
I noticed that as well
New Woods Wallpaper looks like a location in Red Dead Redemption 2
or from logan movie
Fair title. Fair presentation. Very good!
I had a new screen after the final restart of the update: Whats new and a Hello Mac Screen.
I love this new update! Beta 1 was more buggy and some things didn’t work. Now everything works better. Plus, I love the new Sequoia wallpapers, I just wish that Apple would put a midday and night mode just like the other wallpapers.

Are you planning on making a video on iPadOS 18.1 beta 2? Thinking of trying out this beta on my M4 iPad Pro
No, it’s the same as iOS
hi I just have a little question how do you do for making you trackpad being so fast on your device ?
Marvellous. New icons, wallpapers. Renaming Browse to New. What an advancement.
This is what’s new in beta two, not the whole OS
Hi, where can I find the wallpaper you have used at the beginning of the "new features" portion of this video?
always linked in the description

how comes your mouse looks like it has motion blur, it moves so smoothly. Do you know how I could make my one look like that? 😁
I loved the new wallpaper. Best yet.
If you use stacks on your desktop, can you move the stacks around now ?
You mean in the stage manager? no.
You can move stacks around…just not in Stage Manager as the other guy said.

Do you recommend average users to download beta? Is beta safe?
