Apple today provided developers with build candidates for the upcoming beta versions of watchOS 26.5, tvOS 26.5, and visionOS 26.5 for testing. The software comes a week after Apple released the fourth beta versions for each platform.
Software updates are available through the Settings app on each device, and because these are developer betas, a free developer account is required.
watchOS 26.5 adds a new Pride watch face to accompany the Apple Watch 2026 Pride band.
It is not yet clear what other features are present in the software. watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS often get few features in each new beta, with updates primarily focusing on bug fixes and performance improvements. Nothing new was found in the beta versions.
watchOS 26.5, visionOS 26.5, and tvOS 26.5 are expected to see a public release next week.
