Apple has just released beta 4 of iOS 26.5 and iPadOS 26.5, along with macOS 26.5, watchOS 26.5, tvOS 26.5, and visionOS 26.5.
Apple Releases Beta 4 of iOS 26.5, macOS 26.5, watchOS 26.5, and More for Download
Have you been testing beta 3 of Apple’s upcoming 26.5 software lineup? Well, beta 4 has arrived, and you can update your devices immediately for the latest bug fixes and improvements.
Whether you have an iPhone, Mac, Vision Pro, or anything else, updating is as simple as going to Settings > General > Software Update. The steps may be slightly different on an Apple TV, but you already know how to perform a beta update at this point.
Right now, only the developer beta is available for download, and the public beta should arrive soon. If you’re currently testing public beta 3 of Apple’s upcoming software, then you may want to hang tight.
Even though the new software lineup doesn’t bring much to the table, iPhone users can expect carrier-related changes under the hood, ensuring solid connectivity and speeds no matter where you are.
I’m hopeful that Apple is going to release the RC version of the updates next week, and the full and final version a week after.
In case you’re wondering about the build numbers of the newly released software, you will find everything below:
- iOS 26.5 and iPadOS 26.5 beta 4 – build number 23F5069b
