Apple Releases macOS 14.5, watchOS 10.5, tvOS 17.5, visionOS 1.2 Beta 1 to Developers

As is customary, Apple usually releases new beta updates just a few days after providing the final build to the general public. However, after the release of iOS 17.4, macOS 14.4, and other updates, developers have had a month of inactivity. Finally, the company has now made the first beta versions of macOS 14.5, watchOS 10.5, tvOS 17.5, and visionOS 1.2 available to developers for testing on all supported devices.
