Apple has released macOS 26.3 Tahoe developer beta 1 with build number 25D5087f for the Mac, and it is available for download now.

macOS 26.3 Tahoe Developer Beta 1 Now Available for Download with New Features and Changes

You thought macOS 26.2 Tahoe was the last update Apple would release before the holidays? Think again, because the company has released the first beta of macOS 26.3 Tahoe to registered developers just now.

Those who are already enrolled in the Apple Developer Program can get started with the beta update right away. All you have to do is enable the developer beta by going to System Settings > General > Software Update > Beta Updates, and select macOS 26 Tahoe Developer Beta from the drop-down menu. Click on Done once you’ve made your choice.

Give Software Update a few seconds, and macOS 26.3 Tahoe beta 1 will become available for download immediately. It’s up to you whether you want to install it immediately or set it up later.

I will dive into macOS 26.3 beta and see if there’s anything noteworthy and do a list post on it. Be sure you’re on the lookout for that.
