The one RC version that was absent from yesterday’s beta release has been made available by Apple. With the release of watchOS 11.1 for developers and public beta users, owners of Apple Watches may now access the newest software.
Final expected delivery version is referred to as RC beta
Apple plans to issue a number of significant software updates for all of its platforms next week. One of them is the Apple Watch.
The beta version of watchOS 11.1 RC (release candidate), which was released today, is anticipated to be the precise software upgrade that will be made available to the general public the following week.
However, before they are shipped to millions of Watch owners, Apple may release another RC later this week to fix any significant problems or defects found by beta users.
Thus far, watchOS 11.1’s new features have seemed very minimal. Additionally, you shouldn’t get too excited about any significant modifications or new features in today’s RC. Prior to the public release, it is anticipated that all attention will be on bug repairs.
Next week, new software will be released
Apple is anticipated to release another significant wave of software updates next week, in addition to the numerous ones it released last month. These updates include:
- iOS 18.1
- iPadOS 18.1
- macOS Sequoia 15.1
- watchOS 11.1
- visionOS 2.1
- tvOS 18.1
The initial wave of Apple Intelligence features, which will be accessible on the iPhone, iPad, and Mac, is the main attraction of these releases.
Notification summaries are one fantastic AI feature that the Apple Watch will receive after updating your iPhone to iOS 18.1, even if the Watch does not technically support AI.
