Apple's new Mac software brings many iOS 26 benefits – but adds one thing

WWDC25.

As part of its WWDC extravaganza, Apple unveiled the latest version of macOS, confirming that it, too, will be getting the Liquid Glass treatment when it releases later this year. That comes straight from the major iOS 26 redesign, and macOS is also getting a name change to add that same number.

Weirdly, though, Apple is trying to have its cake and eat it, too. Throughout the presentation, it referred to the new OS as "Tahoe", continuing its long-standing theme of using geographical names for its software updates on Mac. Only in the official news releases does it confirm that the full name is "macOS Tahoe 26", which is almost a little clumsy as an addition.
