Apple distributes fifth betas of watchOS 11.1, visionOS 2.1, and tvOS 18.1 to developers

By Julie Clover

Apple today released the fifth betas of upcoming watchOS 11.1, visionOS 2.1, and tvOS 18.1 updates to developers for testing. The fifth betas come a week after Apple released the fourth betas.


watchOS 11.1 can be installed by going to the Apple Watch app and selecting Software Update under General in Settings. tvOS 18.1 can be downloaded and installed via the Apple TV Settings app, while visionOS 2.1 can be installed by going to the Software Update section of the Settings app on the Vision Pro and selecting Beta Updates.

There aren't any major new features to be found in these three updates so far, though there are undoubtedly some minor feature improvements and bug fixes that we'll learn about when Apple's release notes become available.

These betas are accompanied by iOS 18.1 and macOS Sequoia 15.1, which will introduce Apple Intelligence. There are currently no Apple Intelligence features in watchOS, tvOS, or visionOS.

While we don't always know what's included in minor watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS updates, we keep MacRumors readers informed when updates are available so that developers can download the new software when it's released.
