However, Apple didn’t end it there with this feature.
Apple may have singlehandedly improved a huge percentage of Mac video calls in 2022.
Moreover, Continuity Camera also lets you change your Mac’s microphone input to your iPhone.
This feature means that you canuse your iPhone as an external microphone for your Mac.
Live Captions
Live Captions is the most useful accessibility feature that came with macOS Ventura.
It could be helpful to people with audio accessibility problems.

Most of the sentences it generates are inaccurate.
Weather App
Many people may have overlooked the Weather app’s addition to macOS.
You might ask, “Wasn’t there always a Weather app on the Mac?”
But no, you must be confusing your iPhone with your Mac.
And rightfully so; the app is pretty much the same thing you have on an iPhone or iPad.

Mail and iMessage now allow you to “Undo Send” your messages before they can cause any damage.
In iMessage, you just have toControl-click your message and selectUndo Send.
In Mail, clickUndo Sendin the bottom-left corner after you send an email.
You only have 10 seconds before the option disappears from the Mail app window.
iMessage also has editing as an extra feature.
These sounds can drown out unwanted noise and boost your concentration, allowing you to rest or work better.
Background sounds include static sounds, like rain, ocean spray, and a flowing stream.
Even though it’s another import from iOS, the option on a Mac is nice.
