Apple has just rolled out its latest public beta on macOS Monterey. Now, even the non‑developer crowd can dive into the latest features before the official release. It’s the fourth wave, dropping in two‑week intervals, and it’s shaping up to be a pretty slick update.
What’s New & Why You’ll Love It
