You can go ahead and download the new macOS 26.1 public beta 3 update on your Mac today with bug fixes and other changes.

macOS 26.1 Public Beta 3 Now Available for Download with New Apple TV App Icon

Just like the developer beta that was released yesterday, the new public beta released today carries the same changes with it. This means you get the shiny new Apple TV icon, which is part of a huge rebrand Apple didn’t make too much fuss about.

Anyway, if you are testing public beta 2 of macOS 26.1 right now, you can download the new version by going to System Settings > General > Software Update. Click on Update Now when you see the update available.

Make sure you save your files and settings because the installation requires you to restart your Mac.
