The latest macOS Ventura 13.3 beta contains a redesigned TV app for Mac, reports 9to5Mac. The redesign is disabled by default but can be activated "with a little bit of trickery".

Once enabled, the new TV app gains a sidebar for navigation, bringing the Mac app in line with the iPad app.

The primary change in this new design is the addition of a sidebar for navigation. This (finally) brings the Mac version of the TV app in lockstep with the iPad version, which added a sidebar with iOS 15.2. The sidebar is broken down into different sections for Apple TV, Store, Library, Devices, and Playlists.

The sidebar sections are similar to the tabs for Watch Now, Apple TV+, MLS, Store, and Library found across the top of the current app, but offer subsections for quicker navigation. The new sidebar also allows users to easily sign in with their Apple ID at the bottom left of the window.



It's unclear when Apple plans to enable the redesigned app for developers or if it will make it to the public release of macOS 13.3. You can download the iClarified app or follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and RSS for more macOS updates.
