Public beta testers can download the macOS 12 Monterey update from the Software Update section of the System Preferences app after installing the proper profile from Apple's beta software website (https://beta.apple.com/sp/betaprogram/).





&zwnj;macOS Monterey&zwnj; 12.1 introduces support for SharePlay, the feature that allows FaceTime (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/facetime/) users to do more with their friends and family members. With SharePlay, ‌&zwnj;FaceTime&zwnj;‌ users can listen to music, watch TV, watch movies, and even share their screen with the people they're chatting with.





SharePlay is already active in iOS 15.1, iPadOS 15.1, and tvOS 15.1, and the &zwnj;macOS Monterey&zwnj; 12.1 update brings Macs in line with the Apple TV (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/apple-tv/) and iOS devices.<div class="linkback">Related Roundup: macOS Monterey (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/macos-12/)</div><div class="linkback">Related Forum: macOS Monterey (https://forums.macrumors.com/forums/macos-monterey.234)</div>
