Apple releases latest public and developer software betas
Apple has released sixth public betas of iOS 27, iPadOS 27, tvOS 27 and macOS Golden Gate for compatible devices. Developers also received eighth betas across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS and visionOS, one week after the previous developer round. The software remains for testing rather than general release.
Why it matters
The coordinated beta cycle brings Apple’s next operating-system generation closer to public launch.
