Get a sneak peek at upcoming web technologies in macOS and iOS with Safari Technology Preview and experiment with these technologies in your websites and extensions. Safari Technology Preview for macOS Big Sur Requires macOS 11 beta. Safari Technology Preview for macOS Catalina Requires macOS 10.15. MacOS Catalina gives you more of everything you love about Mac. Experience music, TV, and podcasts in three all-new Mac apps. Enjoy your favorite iPad apps now on your Mac. Extend your workspace and expand your creativity with iPad and Apple Pencil. And discover smart new features in the apps you use every day.

Streamlined apps

From full-height sidebars to refreshed toolbars, a clean new app design makes sure your content is always front and center.

Refreshed Dock

A sleek design update makes getting to your favorite apps even easier. And a new uniform shape for app icons adds consistency while letting the personality of Mac shine through.

Control Center for Mac

Instantly access the controls you use most — like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth — and new controls to play music and enable Dark Mode for your display. Designed just for Mac, the new Control Center lets you add controls and drag favorites to the menu bar to customize it just for you.

Notification Center

A new design combines notifications and widgets in a single view for more information at a glance. Notifications are now grouped by app, and many are interactive — letting you do things like play new podcast episodes or learn more about Calendar invitations. And redesigned widgets come in three different sizes, so you can create the best view for you.

Apple on Monday seeded the ninth beta of macOS 10.15 Catalina to developers and public beta testers. The new beta comes two weeks after the release of the eights beta.

The new developer build can be downloaded from the Apple Developer Center by participants in the program, or as a software update for Macs that have previous versions of the Catalina beta installed.

The public beta build of the new operating system can be downloaded via the Apple Beta Software Program website by users signed up to take part in the testing program.

Feature that will be available with the public release of macOS 10.15 Catalina include:

The iTunes app is replaced with three new apps designed to simplify the way Mac users enjoy their favorite music, TV shows, movies and podcasts.
Sidecar allows users to use their iPad as an extended display for Mac and a high-precision drawing tablet across supported Mac apps.
Apple is introducing new assistive technologies.
Screen Time makes the move over from iOS and gives users insight into how they spend time in apps and on websites, and the tools to help decide how to spend their time on their Mac.
Photos features a beautiful new browsing experience that intelligently showcases the user’s best pictures.
Safari has an updated start page that uses Siri Suggestions to elevate frequently visited sites, bookmarks, iCloud tabs, Reading List selections and links sent in Messages.
Mail in macOS Catalina adds the ability to block email from a specified sender, mute an overly active thread and unsubscribe from commercial mailing lists.
Notes now has a brand new Gallery View, more powerful search tools and additional collaboration options.
Reminders has been redesigned with an all-new user interface that makes it easier to create, organize and track reminders.

As usual, MacTrast and Apple both warn users to not install any betas on your daily driver Mac computer, instead only install it on a device set aside for testing purposes. 32-bit Mac apps will not work on macOS 10.15 Catalina, so keep that in mind before installing the beta for the first time.

MacBook: 2015 and later
MacBook Air: 2012 and later
MacBook Pro: 2012 and later
Mac mini: 2012 and later
