Days before its big MacBook event, which takes place in Cupertino on Oct. 27, Apple has released a new version of macOS Sierra, bringing the version number to 10.12.1.

The update mostly brings bug fixes, but there is one new feature: The photos taken on an iPhone 7 Plus in the recently released Portrait mode will now be automatically be added to a new smart album in Photos.

The update is available through Apple's Mac Store. The full release notes are below:

On Thursday, Apple is rumored to show off new MacBook Pro models, which sorely need an update, and at least one other laptop, though it's unclear whether it will be a MacBook Air or a MacBook. And although Apple's Mac and iMac lines could also use an update, latest rumors point to this event being only about the MacBook.
