Apple just released the macOS 12.2 Release Candidate for developers. A beta from which, given the pace of the first and second, we do not expect news, although there is always room for the strange surprise.
A performance-driven beta cycle, essentially
The first beta version of macOS 12.2 was released before Christmas. In this first beta, the release notes have already revealed to us that we won’t see any appreciable changes, the biggest change being that now the Music and Apple TV apps will be 100% native. The second beta arrived exactly the same way, so we hope that this the third beta, the RC, continues with minor changes, invaluable, focused on performance and stability.
It’s true that we continue waiting for the arrival of Universal Control, which should allow us to interact with an iPad or Mac from the keyboard of our Mac, but for now this is what we know about this feature. Until in June 2022, at WWDC, Apple presents the new macOS 13, we will continue to see developments in the beta of version 12.x. A version that in his last to construct stable added SharePlay to the Mac and fixed a few bugs while improving the performance of compatible machines along the way.
If we want to enter the beta cycle we can do it by following these steps or by creating a bootable installer for the system, but we must bear in mind that we are talking about development versions with bugs.
Already in the beta cycle we will find the update in System Preferences > Software update as OTA update. During the first few hours, Apple’s servers may receive more requests than usual, so the wait time may be longer.
