Apple Releases Fourth watchOS 26.5, tvOS 26.5 and visionOS 26.5 Betas

Apple today provided developers with the fourth betas of upcoming watchOS 26.5, tvOS 26.5, and visionOS 26.5 betas for testing purposes. The software comes a week after Apple released the third betas for each platform.

The software updates are available through the Settings app on each device, and because these are developer betas, a free developer account is required.

There's no word on what's in the software as of yet. watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS often get few features in each new beta, with updates primarily focusing on bug fixes and performance improvements. Nothing new was found in the first three betas.

I did not dive into the possible changes on the VisioPro, but encountered subtle changes in the environments like rain in Mount Hood, Birds in Joshua Tree or a more vivid Haleakala. No alien spaceship on Jupiter yet 🤣
