Apple Seeds Fifth Beta of macOS Tahoe to Developers

[MacRumors]

Apple today provided developers with the fifth beta of macOS Tahoe 26 for testing purposes, with the update coming two weeks after the fourth beta.

Registered developers can download the new beta software through the System Settings app.

macOS Tahoe features Apple's Liquid Glass redesign, which extends across all of the new updates this year. Apple also brought the Phone and Journal apps to the Mac for the first time, and introduced a new cross-platform Games app.

With the update, Apple overhauled how Spotlight works, enabling new functionality that allows it to be used to complete all kinds of actions like sending emails without having to open up an app. There are also changes to a number of apps, including Messages, Safari, and Notes.

All of the new features that are included in macOS Tahoe are outlined in our dedicated roundup.

macOS Tahoe is set to launch this fall.

I wonder if it's stable enough to use full-time.

Last build was not stable for me personally, but check the feedback on this one to see if it works with you.

It’s been very stable for me in daily use, YMMV.

I get all iOS and watchOS immediately after the release but macOS can be even on the next day!

Thank you! I heard AlDente doesn't work, but I don't know if it's been fixed by now.

AlDente has been working fine for me on the Developer beta 4 build.

Don't take it personal. I'm in Colorado and the same thing for me every time. All the other beta updates come immediately and macOS is at least an hour later.

If I was alive I would fire some people in the software distribution.

Still nothing in the UK. Maybe it's an intentional delay. Give people plenty of time to update their iPhones first. If the phone update goes wrong, they've still got a working Mac as a restore device.

 

[Silberbogen]

No macOS Beta5 in Europe yet.
