The beta testing process for macOS 11 Big Sur continues today with the release of the third developer beta. macOS 11 Big Sur beta 3 comes two weeks after the release of the second developer two weeks ago and the original debut of the operating system at WWDC 2020 last week.
macOS Big Sur Beta 3 Details
Developers can update to the third beta of macOS Big Sur by heading to the System Preferences application, then looking for the Software Update option. If you don’t immediately see macOS Big Sur beta 3 available for download, keep checking as the update is still rolling out and could take a few minutes to hit your device.
macOS 11 Big Sur will be released to public beta users sometime this month, according to Apple. Oddly enough, iOS 14 and tvOS 14 were released to public beta users two weeks ago, but there is no sign of the macOS 11 Big Sur or watchOS 7 public betas yet. As of right now, Apple’s Beta Software Program website still lists the macOS 11 Big Sur and watchOS 7 public betas are “coming soon.”
