At WWDC 2018, Apple announced the next version of its desktop operating system for Macs, Macos Mojave. Here's what's new!

MACOS MOJAVE FEATURES

• Apple starts by showing off a new Dark Mode for macOS. It changes the color of the app windows, toolbars, dock, and more.
• Dynamic Desktop is a feature where your desktop wallpaper subtley changes throughout the day based on the time.
• Desktop Stacks is a feature that groups all of the files, folders, and tags to auto-organize your desktop. Stack icons are also scrubbable.
• The Finder gets a new view called Gallery view. Makes it easy to preview images, videos, PDFs, documents, etc.
• New Finder sidebar to see the full metadata of any file(s) you have selected, along with quick actions along the bottom of the sidebar.
• Markup has been added to Quick Look
• New screenshots functionality - similar to iOS, the screenshot appears in the bottom corner of the screen, and when you click on it, you get a Quick Look with a bunch of readily-available tools
• A new screenshot tool also allows for quick video recording
• New Continuity Camerea feature allows you to use your iOS device as a camera to insert photos into Mac documents. This can also be used for document scanning from an iOS device into a Mac doc.
• Enhanced eGPU support

APPS

• The Apple News app is coming to the Mac in macOS Mojave
• The Stocks app is also coming to the Mac in Mojave
• Voice Memos will be part of Mojave as well, with iCloud syncing
• Apple's Home app will ship with macOS Mojave, allowing you to control your smart home devices, along with Siri support

SECURITY AND PRIVACY

• Apple is extending protection to Cameras, Microphones, Backups, Message history, and much more
• In Safari, Apple is auto-hiding even more tracking scripts connected to like buttons and comment fields
• Safari is also making it harder for trackers to create a fingerprint of your device, so your Mac appears to look like everyone else's Mac, making it harder for ad companies to track you

MAC APP STORE

• Apple has completely redesigned the Mac App Store
• Similar to iOS, the Mac App Store will feature editorials and stories
• Videos of apps are built in to give a better idea of how the apps look and feel
• More categories like Create, Work, Play, and Develop to easier find groups of apps
• Microsoft is bringing Office 365 to the Mac App Store
• Panic is bringing Transmit
• BareBones bringing BBEdit
• Adobe is bringing Lightroom

Apple also answered the question of whether they are merging macOS and iOS - the answer is "No!" However, Apple will be allowing iOS apps on the Mac through a new set of UI instructions. It starts in 2018 with News, Stocks, Home, and Voice Memos. In 2019, developers will have access to these tools as well.
