Sources say Apple's macOS Sonoma will be launched at the same time as iOS / iPadOS 17.
CTOnews.com Sept. 7, Apple has usually delayed in the past four years and chose to release the official version of macOS in October or November. According to the progress of the development of the existing Beta version, Apple is expected to release the macOS Sonoma version simultaneously in September this year.
The source @ iSWUpdates noticed one detail: Apple's seventh beta version of macOS Ventura released last year ended with "f", while last week's seventh beta of macOS Sonoma ended with "a", and the higher the letter, the closer to the end of the test.
Apple released macOS Mojave in September 2018, and its updated seventh beta also ends with the "a" suffix.
CTOnews.com attached here is the time when Apple has released the macOS version since 2016:
MacOS Sierra: September 20, 2016
September 25, macOS High Sierra:2017
September 24, macOS Mojave:2018
October 7, macOS Catalina:2019
November 12, macOS Big Sur:2020
October 25, macOS Monterey:2021
MacOS Ventura: October 24, 2022
According to Mark Goolman of Bloomberg, Apple will release both iOS 17 and iPadOS 17 official updates this month, unlike the separate releases of iOS 16 and iPadOS 16 last year. So this could mean that Apple will release iOS / iPadOS 17 and macOS Sonoma 14 updates simultaneously this year.
