Update 1: Apple is now rolling out the same updates to Public beta testers.
Update 2: The latest watchOS 10 public beta was released one day after the iOS 17 public beta.
On Tuesday, Apple released iOS 17 beta 6 to developers, exactly one week after beta 5 became available. Since we’re only a month away from the official release of iOS 17, the company is working on bug fixes and getting everything ready for users. Read on as we explain more details about the update.
iOS 17 beta 6 is now available
Apple unveiled iOS 17 at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference on June 5, teasing new features coming to iPhone, including StandBy, direct voicemail, AirDrop updates, and more. iOS 17 has been available as a pre-release version since early June. Last month, Apple expanded iOS 17 testing through its public beta program as well.
In addition to iOS 17 beta 6, Apple also released new builds for watchOS 10 and tvOS 17 beta users. You can check out the build numbers below:
- iOS 17 and iPadOS 17 beta 6: 21A5312c
- tvOS 17 and HomePod Software 17 beta 6: 21J5339b
- watchOS 10 beta 6: 21R5341c
If you are already running iOS, watchOS, or tvOS beta on your devices, make sure you have the latest version available by going to Settings > Software update.
According to Apple, all new software will be released to the public this fall. Rumors have it that the Apple event will take place in the third week of September, so it is likely that Apple will confirm when iOS 17 will be available for everyone.
