SharePlay (Eventually)
SharePlay is a FaceTime feature that allows you to share media with others on the FaceTime call, like listening to the same music or watching the same video. It’s an easy way to catch up on content with friends even if you can’t be in front of the same TV. There’s just one small problem…it doesn’t work on Monterey. Apple found it had to do some extra work on SharePlay and announced it would be included in the original release, but relegated to a later update. We’ll have to stay patient for this one – fortunately, you can still use it on mobile devices.
There are also a number of minor updates, including an optimized Finder window, more VoiceOver support for accessibility, and improvements to a number of previous tools to make them smarter and faster.
All in all, Monterey looks like an excellent upgrade with plenty of sensible quality-of-life improvements. We’ll be sure to keep you updated on the latest news, how Monterey is performing, and what features are worth your time!
