Apple, Beta, developers, macOS, releases

Apple has just released the second beta of macOS 12.1, a version that should focus on polishing the little details as well as finalize the arrival of SharePlay on Mac. An investment for which we expect a fairly short beta cycle.

Details SharePlay and maybe Universal Control

The main novelty of macOS Monterey 12.1 is the arrival of SharePlay on the Mac. A novelty that we saw announced at the last developer conference and which, after its official arrival in iOS 15.1 and iPadOS 15.1, now comes on Mac in beta form.

Also in this update We could see universal control coming. A feature that has also been presented with the rest of the macOS Monterrey news and which is still awaited its appearance, even if it comes in the form of a beta. Along with this, Apple is expected to focus on polishing up certain details and improving operating system performance on compatible computers.

If we want to enter the beta cycle, we can do so by following these steps or creating a system bootable installer, but it should be borne in mind that we are talking about development versions containing bugs.

This is macOS 12 Monterey: new functions to control the iPad from the Mac and shortcuts for the desktop

Already in the beta cycle we will find the update in System Preferences > Software update as an OTA update. During the first few hours, Apple’s servers may receive more demand than usual, so the wait time may be extended.
