Apple has seeded the first developer betas of watchOS 26.2, tvOS 26.2, visionOS 26.2, and HomePod Software 26.2 for testing. The release kicks off the next development cycle for Apple's other platforms, arriving alongside the first betas of iOS 26.2 and iPadOS 26.2.
The build numbers for the new software are 23S5280e for watchOS, 23K5029e for tvOS and HomePod Software, and 23N5279e for visionOS.
These betas come just a day after the public launch of watchOS 26.1, tvOS 26.1, and visionOS 26.1. No major new features have been spotted yet, so the updates likely focus on under-the-hood improvements and bug fixes.
Developers can download the new software from the link below. Please download the iClarified app or follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and RSS for updates on any new features found in these betas.
