Apple has seeded the macOS Sequoia 15.1 release candidate to developers and public beta testers, following the seventh beta release last week. This update introduces the first wave of Apple Intelligence features, focusing on enhancing productivity and user experience.
Key additions in macOS Sequoia 15.1 include:
- Writing Tools for improved text editing and creation.
- New Siri features for better voice assistance.
- Smart Replies in Mail and Messages, offering quicker responses.
- Priority messages in the Mail app for easier inbox management.
- Memory Movie and Clean Up features in the Photos app for organizing and enhancing memories.
Notably, the update does not yet include Image Playground, Genmoji, or the more advanced Siri functionality expected in future updates. Developers can access the beta through the Software Update section in System Settings, with an Apple ID linked to a developer account required for enrollment.
