I don’t know if there are Mac users out there who truly feel like they’re missing out on iMessage apps since so many of them are a bit silly and inessential, but looking at “sent with Echo” or “sent with Balloons” continues to be a reminder that you’re using a second-class version of the service.

You still don’t get full-screen Messages effects You’ll be alerted if the person on the other end of the call takes a Live Photo, and you can stop people from doing it by turning Live Photos off in the FaceTime settings. If you’re in a FaceTime call with someone else running iOS 11 or High Sierra, tap the circular photo button to snap a Live Photo.

When you’re using Mail in full-screen mode and go to compose a new message, the compose window automatically pops up beside the main window in Split View mode in Sierra, the compose window obscures the main window and needs to be minimized and maximized if you want to look at different things, à la iOS.Īpple also says that High Sierra compresses Mail messages, resulting in “up to 35 percent” space reduction obviously your results will vary based on the size of your mailbox and the type of messages and attachments you’re getting. Finally, as we do every year, there’s a big pile of little things scattered throughout macOS that are significant enough to mention but small enough (or self-explanatory enough) that they don’t merit deeper exploration or explanation.
