Mac is a popular operating system that constantly strives to improve its user experience. The Mojave update has been one of the most popular updates for Mac users, even though it was slightly overshadowed by the release of the last update Ventura.  

Mojave offers a wide range of innovative features and improvements, making it an exciting update for Mac users. 

What Mac OS Mojave did right?

One of the standout features of Mojave is its Dark Mode, which changes the interface's color scheme to a darker, more subdued tone. This not only looks sleek and modern, but it also reduces eye strain and battery usage. 

Additionally, Mojave introduces Dynamic Desktop, which automatically changes the desktop background to match the time of day. This creates a more immersive and engaging user experience.

Mojave also includes a wide range of under-the-hood improvements. For example, the updated Safari browser is faster and more secure than ever before. The new Apple News app provides a personalized news feed, so users can stay up-to-date on the topics that matter most to them. The Voice Memos app has also been redesigned, making it easier to record and edit voice memos on the go.

Furthermore, Mojave introduces new features that enhance the overall user experience. For instance, the new Finder sidebar makes it easier to navigate and organize files. The updated Quick Actions feature in the Photos app allows users to make edits and adjustments to their photos more quickly and easily.

As an operating system, Mac OS has always tried to make things sleek and minimalist on your desktop. However, in the older versions, the sync between Mac and iPhone led to a lot of clutter. To counter that, Apple added Desktop Stacks to make your desktop organized according to the criteria you desire.  

These, and many more features allow Mac users to enjoy an even sleeker operating system. Another thing that draws attention is an improvement in Continuity - the connection between the phone and the computer. In general, the newest version of the operating system brings everything the users loved in the previous versions - only enhanced.  

Is macOS Mojave still supported?

Unfortunately, macOS Mojave is no longer officially supported by Apple as of November 30, 2021. This means that Apple will no longer be providing security updates or technical support for this operating system.

While Mojave may still be functional and some software may still support it, it's important to consider the security risks involved in using an unsupported operating system. Without security updates, your Mac is more vulnerable to malware and other attacks.

Is there a better alternative?  

The decision to update to Ventura or stick with Mojave is up to personal preference. Both updates offer unique features and advantages, so it's worth considering your specific needs and preferences before making a decision.  

Whatever you choose, Mac users can rest assured that they'll be using a high-quality operating system that's designed to make their computing experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible.

Where can you run this program?  

Mac Mojave runs on Mac computers featuring an OS X 10.8 and later versions.  

Our take  

This new update took the best features and improved them. The only obvious drawback of Mojave is that Apple has stopped giving support and updates to it. Yet, Mojave does its job, and it does it properly.  

Should you download it?  

Yes. If you're a Mac lover, you'll probably want to get OS X Mojave.
