1# New clock app to set the timer, alarm, and stopwatch
Amongst the three new apps introduced in macOS Ventura is the Clock app. Its user interface is quite similar to the clock app of iPadOS and iOS. I’m not sure whether you knew that Apple had never included a clock app in the Mac operating system, and it is the first time Apple has rolled out the clock app.
This scaled-up version of the iOS clock app enables you to set a timer, alarm, and stopwatch on your Mac. Whenever any activity gets triggered in the app, it will be prompted in the menu bar on the top, and it will remain there even after closing the app.
2# Get weather updates for multiple locations
An all-new weather app is next on the list of the newly introduced apps on macOS Ventura. Similar to the clock app, it is also the ‘big brother’ of the app version present on iPhones and iPad.
The weather app gives real-time information about multiple locations. The different parameters include UV index, 10-day forecast, sunset, wind, humidity, and air pressure details. You also get map-based real-time information about precipitation. There is also an option to add different locations in the app to get weather updates for them.
