Overview
- Apple rolled out the second developer betas for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27 Golden Gate, tvOS 27, visionOS 27 and HomePod Software 27 to developers, focusing on stability and incremental feature changes.
- The update advances Apple Intelligence and the rebuilt Siri by improving responsiveness and adding systemwide writing and conversation tools such as a new Write with Siri keyboard button and a dedicated Siri app.
- visionOS 27 beta 2 prototypes spatial Visual Intelligence for Vision Pro with a placeable 3D Siri orb that can be activated by looking at it and new environment-aware queries.
- Beta 2 adds practical refinements including Wallet's inactive Insights scaffold, Home app support to remotely update an Apple TV, RCS inline replies and fixes for HomeKit camera notifications and app stability.
- Apple cautions these are early developer builds for testing only, features will be staged by hardware and region and a wider public beta is expected in July with a full release planned for the fall.
