You can now download and install RC version of iOS 27.2, iPadOS 27.2, macOS 27.2, watchOS 27.2, tvOS 27.2, and visionOS 27.2.

Apple Releases RC Updates of iOS 27.2, iPadOS 27.2, watchOS 27.2, macOS 27.2, tvOS 27.2, and visionOS 27.2 Ahead of Next Week’s Final Release

With Apple releasing the RC updates of the above software today, it only makes sense that the final version will become available for everyone else next week. It’s the same week in which Apple is holding its ‘Pro and tell’ event.

If you already have the above developer or public betas installed on your devices, then you can download the RC like any other update. However, anyone can go right ahead and install the RC build by simply signing up for the public beta.

You’ll find steps for downloading the iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 public beta here, macOS 27 public beta here, watchOS 27 public beta here, and tvOS 27 public beta here. Since there’s no public beta of visionOS 27, you have to sign up for the developer beta in order to gain access to the RC early.

Here are all the build numbers of the updates Apple has released today:

  • iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 RC – build number 24B115
  • macOS 27 RC – build number 26B118
  • watchOS 27 RC – build number 24S116
  • tvOS 27 RC – build number 24K120
