Apple Seeds First Beta of macOS 10.15.1 Catalina to Developers

Apple on Friday seeded the first beta of macOS 10.15.1 Catalina to developers. The beta comes just four days after the public release of macOS 10.15 Catalina, the initial release of the company’s new Mac operating system.

The new developer build can be downloaded from the Apple Developer Center by participants in the program, or as a software update for Macs that have the proper profile installed.

According to Apple’s release notes, ‌macOS Catalina‌ 10.15.1 includes the following:

• Support for the AMD Navi RDNA eGPU architecture
• Changes to ‌Photos‌. Users can now filter by Favorites, Edited, ‌Photos‌, Videos, or Keywords in the All ‌Photos‌ view, and users can choose View > Metadata > Titles to enable titles and filenames in the All ‌Photos‌ View.

The new beta also likely includes performance improvements and fixes for bugs that have been discovered in the first version of Catalina.
