Apple today seeded the first public beta of an upcoming macOS Sonoma 14.1 update, allowing non-developers to test out the software ahead of its release. The public beta comes a day after the first developer beta.
Beta testers can opt-in through the Software Update section of the System Settings app. Under Beta updates, simply toggle on the Sonoma Public Beta. Note that you must sign up to participate on Apple's beta testing website.
macOS Sonoma 14.1 includes updates for the Music app, introducing an option to favorite songs, albums, artists, and more. No other major new additions have been found in the beta as of yet, but we could see more features added as the beta progresses.
Insane how up-in-arms people get about getting “only” 70 new features for free right away and 10 later, instead of all 80 at once. What a twisted perspective.
Everyone's jumping on me like I'm complaining.. I think this feature drop approach is a good thing for apple and a good thing for consumers
Some people are jumping on you for complaining, and some for defending Apple. I think what we've learned here is that no one is happy with software development cycles.
