macOS 15 to deliver System Settings overhaul

Apple is working on revamping menus and app UIs across macOS 15, with the Mac’s System Settings app seeing the biggest reorganization since it was redesigned in macOS Ventura (released on October 24, 2022) and renamed from “System Preferences.”

Marko Zivkovic for AppleInsider:

Individual settings within the app will be reorganized based on priority and overall importance, people familiar with the matter have told AppleInsider.

For example, the section which encompasses notifications and sound settings will be moved lower in the list. The move is accompanied by different music and audio-related improvements, including smart song transitions and a new “Passthrough” feature for certain audio hardware.

The section containing general settings will now be located right underneath key network settings. General settings include arguably the most important user-configurable options within any Apple operating system, so it only makes sense that this section would be positioned higher in the list.

Wallpaper and display-related settings will no longer be part of their own dedicated section, but will instead be lumped together with other options. This means that display-related settings will now be located alongside general settings, accessibility settings and so on.

MacDailyNews Take: Not huge changes, but System Settings could use a bit of a reorg. Even better would be to allow users to organize the menu to their own preferences by simply grabbing an icon and sliding it into desired positions, à la the Dock.
