Apple has just released watchOS 10.1 beta 2, so developers can start testing it. The minor update was released a week after the initial beta and included some bug fixes and additional features. If you want to learn more about the watchOS 10.1 beta 2 update, keep reading.
The update, with version number 21S5053f, is being pushed out to Apple Watches right now. The incremental upgrade is smaller in size than the initial beta, coming in at 360 MB. While the upgrade is currently only accessible to programmers, it will soon enter public beta testing.
WatchOS 10.1’s second beta adds the long-awaited double tap functionality to the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2. However, Apple did not include a changelog with the official release.
Explore the new features of watchOS 10 or the Nike Globe watch faces by updating to the latest version of Apple’s operating system for the Apple Watch. The new update for the watch is simple to install if you are a programmer.
