New betas of iOS 15.6 and iPadOS 15.6 are now available to developers and soon to public beta testers. After rolling out the new iOS 16 beta last week, Apple releases new betas, iOS 15.6 Beta 4 and iPadOS 15.6 Beta 4. These could be the last beta or the second last beta before we see the RC build of both updates. Let’s find out more about the iOS 15.6 Beta 4 and iPadOS 15.6 Beta 4.
As you know Apple is testing both iOS 15.6 and iOS 16 at the same time but releasing betas in alternate weeks. So the next iOS 15.6 beta or RC may release on 12th July as next week we can expect the third iOS 16 beta. Talking about the previous update, iOS 15.6 Beta 3 and iPadOS 15.6 Beta 3 were released two weeks back with some improvements and bug fixes.
Apple also released tvOS 15.6 Beta 4, and watchOS 8.7 Beta 4 along with iOS 15.6 Beta 4 and iPadOS 15.6 Beta 4. Both iOS 15.6 Beta 4 and iPadOS 15.6 Beta come with build number 19G5056c. As usual, the update size will depend on the device and the update you are coming from.
As we are close to the stable build of iOS 15.6 we are not expecting any big changes or features. But there will be some bug fixes and improvements like the last beta update. We will update here if we find any new features or big changes.
