Following today’s unveiling of the new MacBook Neo and yesterday’s deployment of the developer version of macOS 26.4 beta 3, the public beta is now being distributed. Here’s what to anticipate.
## What to anticipate from macOS 26.4
If you’ve been affected by the issue where the window resize pointer does not align with the window’s corner shape, good news: Apple has announced a fix for this problem in this batch of betas (unlike macOS 26.3, where it was initially flagged as resolved before being reclassified as a known issue following the public launch).
With macOS 26.4, Apple is introducing native support for a widely-used battery management feature found in third-party applications, permitting users to limit maximum charge levels between 80% and 100%.
Moreover, macOS 26.4 reinstates the compact tab bar in Safari and now alerts users that Rosetta applications will cease functioning in the future, as Apple progresses with its strategy to discontinue support for the Apple Silicon–Intel translation layer with macOS 27.
The release version for today’s macOS 26.4 public beta 3 is 25E5223i, the same as the most recent developer build.
