  • Every edge is assignable. Each of the trackpad's four edges can be Volume, Screen Brightness, Keyboard Brightness, Night Shift, Media or Nothing. Pick an edge in Settings › Edge Faders, then what it does, or right-click the Edges tile in the menu.
  • Keyboard brightness is back. The top edge, right next to the keyboard, now sets the keyboard's backlight on Macs that have one, replacing the keys newer Macs dropped.
  • Choosing something that's already on another edge swaps the two, and presets (Standard, Sides only, All four, Top & bottom) set everything in one click.
  • Where two edges meet in a corner, the direction you slide decides which edge you're using.
  • The menu shows every assigned edge live where it sits, with play controls for a Media edge.
  • The Media Strip is now simply an edge set to Media, on any edge you like. Your current edges carry over, and the keyboard light is added to the top edge if it was free.
  • The Loupe is gone. It wasn't pulling its weight, so it's been removed along with its ⌥⌘ shortcut. Fader no longer asks for Screen Recording, and you can turn that permission off for Fader in System Settings › Privacy & Security.
