MACOS MONTEREY
The Monterey bit of the feature was overwhelmed by an inconceivably noteworthy demo that flaunted Apple’s new Universal Control include, however Apple additionally set aside the effort to talk about Shortcuts, which are coming to macOS. Macintoshes are unpredictable machines, however, and there are a couple of more fun and valuable things that will be coming in the fall:

WATCHOS 8
“Just noticed there is a new set of Time complications in watchOS 8. While a slight bit of ‘Sherlocking’ for Watchsmith, I’m honestly super glad it’s here. A good number of my gray hairs came from supporting time based complications…glad I can focus elsewhere now. “
