Summary:
Intune will support macOS 14 and higher later this year, following the release of macOS Tahoe 26. Existing enrolled devices on macOS 13.x or below will remain enrolled, but new devices running these versions cannot enroll. Organizations should check Intune reporting and request users to upgrade their devices.

Details:
Later this year, we expect macOS Tahoe 26 to be released by Apple. Microsoft Intune, the Company Portal app and the Intune MDM agent will be moving to support macOS 14 (Sonoma) and later. Since the Company Portal app for iOS and macOS are a unified app, this change will occur shortly after the release of macOS 26. This does not affect existing enrolled devices.

explanation for non-techies**

Imagine you're running a law firm, and you have a trusty old coffee machine that serves everyone well. However, the coffee supplier announces they will only deliver coffee pods that fit the latest machines. Your current machine will still work with the pods you have, but any new machines you buy must be compatible with the new pods. This means you'll need to upgrade your coffee machine if you want to continue serving coffee to new employees or guests.

Similarly, Microsoft Intune, a tool used to manage company devices, is updating its support to work with macOS 14 and newer versions. If your current devices are running macOS 13 or older, they will continue to work with Intune. However, any new devices you purchase must have macOS 14 or higher to be managed by Intune. This is like needing a new coffee machine for the new pods.

To prepare, check which devices in your organization are still on macOS 13 or older. You can do this by looking at your Intune reports, much like checking which employees still use the old coffee machine. Encourage users to upgrade their devices to ensure they can continue to be managed effectively, just as you would encourage employees to use the new coffee machine for better service.

In summary, while your current setup will continue to function, planning for future upgrades will ensure smooth operations and management of new devices, much like ensuring everyone can enjoy their coffee without interruption.
