The macOS beta can be installed using Apple's macOS Public Beta Access Utility, while the tvOS beta can be installed by navigating to Settings > System > Software Updates > Get Public Beta Updates.

Apple says macOS Mojave 10.14.3 contains "bug fixes and improvements," while the tvOS 12.1.2 is likely a very minor update.

is this real news or fake news? i'm downloading now...
I don't think "EverythingApplePro" are a news organisation; so how can it be either real or fake news?

iOS 12.1.1 appears to have drastically reduced my battery charge retainment on my iPhone 7, so I hope this takes care of that issue. My iPhone 7 now burns through the battery about 3 times faster than on 12.1.0.
Did the same on my 7+.

Heads up that EverythingApplePro reported that 12.1.2 beta 1 causes the app switcher to misbehave.
