Beta or Preview releases
We love early adopters, but PC and Mac beta releases aren't supported. You'll need to stick with production releases to continue to use OneDrive reliably.
However, if you're keen to always have the latest and greatest, there are two ways to get early access to new features:
-
Join the OneDrive Preview for Android or OneDrive Preview for iOS.
-
On your OneDrive desktop app, select Help & Settings > Settings > About and select Get early access.
