Public beta testing new operating systems Applu is becoming more popular every year, judging at least by the readership of our articles dedicated to this topic and the questions that accumulate on our communication channels regarding public betas. So you probably won't be surprised if I say that one of the most frequent ones in recent days has been the one regarding the availability of the first public betas of macOS Big Sur and watchOS 7, whose release Apple promised to WWDC during July. However, the first mentioned beta was only released yesterday and for the public beta for watchOS 7. However, waiting for the betas of these systems is definitely not something that should annoy you.

Quite often, I come across opinions in my environment that are about the long wait for the public betas of macOS Big Sur and watchOS 7 does not spare criticism. Almost everyone wants to test the systems in advance, and the public beta is the most feasible solution, if we are talking about miniabout legislation (of course you shouldn't install other people's developer accounts). Every extra day of waiting is logically perceived as a mistake Applu and often a bad sign that he is not developing the systems as he would like. Personally, however, I think that the long wait for public betas is not a bad sign at all, but rather a matter of responsibility Appyou.

What shall we talk about? Although installing public betas is recommended mainly for experienced users, ideally on their secondary device, even complete novices try it and “throw” them on their primary devices. In the case of iPhones or iPads, it doesn’t really matter, as the downgrade to iOS 13 or iPadOS 13 is not at all complicated and unless the device starts behaving unpredictably (which happens mini(in fact), anyone can do it according to instructions on the Internet. macOS and watchOS However, it is a completely different matter. Returning to an older macOS is a really complicated matter, which even those of us in the editorial team, supported by contacts for services and other experts, have to deal with, let alone complete novices. In the case of Apple Watch then the situation is even worse, because of what, after all Apple never public betas before watchOS did not issue. Return after installing a new watchOS on the old watchOS This can only be done with the help of professionals in the service center, which is of course a significant complication and also hard on the wallet.

Waiting Applu with betaI personally consider it more of a protective mechanism for its users, since both in the case of macOS and watchOS In short, they need to release a beta that is reliable enough that they will want to abandon it. minimum users or ideally none. And since betas are apparently not in such a state, at least in his opinion, you cannot install them. However, it is definitely not possible to conclude from this that development is not going well, since the quality standards Applu are set really high and what might seem like a tolerable risk to many of us simply does not exist for him. That is why you should wait for the current watchOS 7 and, by extension, the long wait for macOS Big Sur, which only ended last night, should be perceived more positively than negatively, even though it may sound strange. Apple for he is very likely approaching it for your good.
Since Big Sur is already faster than Catalina, I wouldn't worry. It's a great designed system that's fast and really looks good. I'm really happy with the design and I'm used to the icons and it's a step forward in that direction too. Just fine-tune message, facetime and appstorewhere there is meaningless shading and I will be satisfied.
I struggled with Catalina for half a year (restrictions on everything, missing 64bit printer driver, etc.) until I got pissed off and went back to the previous version of OSX. I consider Catalina to be the worst user-friendly system of the decade. No one has lured me to Big Sur anymore, because it will be the same.
