Apple releases macOS Monterey 12.4 release candidate to developer community for testing

Apple on Thursday seeded the release candidate version of its upcoming macOS Monterey 12.5 update to developers for testing, the new update coming a week after the release of the fourth macOS Monterey 12.4 beta.

Registered developers can download the beta through the Apple Developer Center and after the appropriate profile is installed, betas will be available through the Software Update mechanism in System Preferences.

When paired with a Studio Display, macOS Monterey 12.4 supports the new 15.5 Studio Display firmware, which improves the quality of the webcam on the display. Per Apple’s release notes, the new Studio Display firmware refines camera tuning, offering improved noise reduction, contrast, and framing.

The software also includes an update for the Podcasts app, with Apple adding a setting that limits the number of episodes stored on a Mac and automatically deletes older ones. 

If you’ve had a chance to try the macOS Monterey 12.4 release candidate, please let us know about your experience in the comments.
