In macOS Sonoma, Freeform has two improvements that make it easier to quickly create large diagrams or flowcharts. You can turn on a connection lines mode to quickly connect a lot of items with lines. You can also change a shape once it has been placed.
In macOS Sonoma you can create Web Apps where you can view your favorite or most used sites in their own app instead of a full browser. This not only makes going to these sites more convenient and app-like, but also enhances privacy.
Note: macOS Sonoma will be released on September 26.
Check out the best new features you can use once you update to macOS Sonoma. You can add widgets right to the Desktop, create apps from your favorite web sites, link between notes, find your pets in Photos, and much more.
macOS Sonoma and iOS 17 allow you to add links from notes to notes in the Notes app. This lets you basically create little mini "wikis" in Notes. Better still, I found you can do things like share these notes with others and the links still work, mix in links to other things, and use these links to create links INTO Notes from the Desktop or other types of documents.
Here's my big list of all of the new features in macOS Sonoma. I go through the list with commentary and showing some of my favorites.
There are hundreds of keyboard shortcuts for Mac users. There are Mission Control shortcuts, Finder shortcuts, system shortcuts, application shortcuts and more. Many you can find by just looking through the menu bar for that application. You can find system ones by looking in the System Settings under Keyboard.
But some keyboard shortcuts are more useful than others. And some are harder to remember than others.
So MacMost has compiled a list of the top keyboard shortcuts for macOS 14.0 (Sonoma). Here they all are on a single PDF page, downloadable and printable: The MacMost macOS Sonoma Keyboard Shortcuts. Download it and pass it along!
