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.

summary for non-techies**
Microsoft Intune will only support macOS 14 and newer for managing new devices, so organizations should identify devices still on macOS 13 or older and plan upgrades to ensure continued management capabilities.
Direct effects for Operations**
