Safari Favicons

I don&t really understand why it took all this time for Safari to show you favicons. Now it does & but not by default: to enable it open Safari>Preferences>Tabsand check the Show website icons in tabs item.

SMS verification

If you have your iPhone Messages synced to your Mac, Mojave will detect when a website or service sends in an SMS verification and can automatically place it in the correct place on your Mac to make it easier to use. Apple really wants you to use dual-factor security.

Traveling can be a massive hassle, with plenty of room for inconvenience and error.
