Apple today released the second macOS Ventura 13.3 beta to developers for testing, with the new software update arriving two weeks after the release of the first macOS 13.3 beta.


Registered developers can download the beta through the Apple Developer Center and once the appropriate profile is installed, betas are available through the Software Update mechanism in System Settings.

‌macOS Ventura‌ 13.3 adopts the same new emoji characters found in iOS 16.4 and iPadOS 16.4, including pink heart, light blue heart, left and right hand, moose, black bird, goose, wing, jellyfish, pea pod, finger, etc.

The update adds the new HomeKit architecture that was originally removed from iOS 16.2 and its sister updates, and the revised version should have fewer bugs that affect ‌HomeKit‌ configurations.

‌macOS Ventura‌ 13.3 will go through several rounds of beta testing, with Apple planning to release it in the spring.
