Camera via Continuity
One of the main new features of macOS Ventura is definitely Continuity Camera. This feature specifically provides the ability to connect your iPhone to your Mac, which you can then use as a webcam and microphone, so you don't necessarily have to use the built-in camera. Using your iPhone will give you better quality, and if you have ultra-wide-angle camera, as well as a special Table View mode. ProConnecting your iPhone to your Mac can be done anytime, anywhere, all you need to do is have iOS 16, or macOS Ventura.

It's enough here select iPhone and it is done.
Activation Stage Manager
Another new feature, which in my opinion is much more interesting in iPadOS 16, is Stage Manager. It is specifically supposed to bring a completely new option for multitasking on Apple computers (and tablets), but most users simply didn't love it because they don't want to change the way they use their Mac - and I'm not surprised, to be honest. Anyway, if you Stage Manager they wanted to try it, that's enough open Control Center, where only on Internship Manager tap to execute activation.

Spotlight can be thought of as a kind of local Google on your Mac. By itself it is already very fast and capable, but in macOS Ventura it is not Apple decided to improve it even more.

New System Settings
By far the most controversial change in macOS Ventura is System Preferences, currently System Settings. Apple Specifically, in the new System Settings, Apple has once again tried to make all its systems unified in some way, so there was a rework that ultimately resembles the Settings from iPadOS. To be completely honest, I don't like the new System Settings and I find them confusing. In addition, be prepared to search for all the preferences, as they have been divided into more sections than were available before. So if you're not new to using a Mac, it will probably take you some time to get used to it - I've been using macOS Ventura since the first beta version and I haven't gotten used to it yet.

Dobrý den. Iphone 8 to MacBook Pro 2017, on both latest OS. Camera cannot be selected via Continuity. Is it possible that old devices can't do this?
