Apple today released the fifth developer beta of macOS Catalina, two weeks after it pushed the fourth beta. The new macOS Catalina beta can now be installed on your Mac by going to System Preferences - Software Update. macOS 10.15 is currently in beta and is not recommended for regular users.

macOS Catalina, also known as macOS 10.15, introduced three popular entertainment apps, the Apple Music, Apple Podcast and Apple TV app to replace iTunes, a media player, media library, Internet radio broadcaster, and mobile device management application developed by Apple, and was announced on January 9, 2001.

Additionally, macOS Catalina also includes the new Sidecar feature, which turns the iPad as a second display for your Mac or to be used as a high-precision input device in a number of Mac creative apps.  Like it did in iOS 13, Apple has revamped the Reminders app and added a new Voice Control feature, as well as a new Find My app so you can track your devices even without the access to the Internet.

In an effort to increase the number of apps available on the macOS App Store, Apple on WWDC 2019 introduced a new and powerful developer initiative called Project Catalyst, while Apple also added more security options, for example, use Apple Watch to approve security prompts for passwords, plus a new start page in Safari, and Mail now can mute email threads and blocking senders for you.
