(Pocket-lint) – Apple releases the first public beta of macOS Monterey. This means that public beta testers or a non-developer can download and try the new update on their iMac, MacBook, MacBook Pro, or other recent Mac.

To run Apple’s next operating system update beta on your computer, you’ll need to sign up for Apple’s beta testing program. Subscription is free. Then you need to install the correct certificate from Apple’s public beta website and then you can get updates wirelessly.

If you have already participated in the Apple Free Trial Program, you will need to re-register to get these newer versions. Here is everything you want to know.
