Apple has just released developer beta 4 for iPadOS 27, tvOS 27, watchOS 27, and several more forthcoming software updates.
If you’re running Apple’s OS 27 developer betas on your iPad, Apple Watch, or another device, there are new updates now available to install.
iPadOS 27, tvOS 27, watchOS 27, HomePod 27, and more are rolling out beta 4 releases today.
You’ll find the latest updates by visiting the Software Update section inside Settings on your devices.
Apple still has nearly two months of new betas and refinements coming before these major new software versions launch to the public.
That means there’s still plenty of time for new and improved features to arrive in beta.
Typically, the earlier in the beta cycle, the more likely Apple will be to introduce noteworthy changes. Whereas later betas that ship closer to the public launch focus primarily on bug fixes and performance improvements.
We’ll keep you posted on anything new discovered in beta 4.
Beta 3 for these updates arrived two weeks ago, followed by the very first public betas last week. Apple is expected to ship today’s releases to public beta testers in the coming days.
