MacOS Monterey is the latest iteration of Apple’s OS for Mac Devices and it has got the major updates with the improved updates for Facetime, Safari, iMessage, and many more. Amongst many features, now anyone from any platform can connect in facetime video chat easily through the shared link, Safari has got a face-lift with its streamlined tab bar with redesigned floating tabs. Apple also introduced Focus, which helps to stay focus on what you want while using devices. What I am most excited about is neat little features like universal control, live text, and shortcuts. Apple has been doubling down on Privacy in recent times and the Tor-Like feature on Safari will protect privacy when browsing the internet while also allowing the users have control of how and when apps and websites access your mics and activities. 

We generally advise against using Beta software but if you are very pumped up and can’t wait to get your hands on MacOS Monterey, we don’t blame you. Here is how you can simply install the Beta version of the new Mac OC Monterey on your Mac.

Since this is a beta build, they may have errors and glitches. Though installing beta will not remove your data, better make sure to back up your mac.
