Apple Releases iOS 27.2 Release Candidate

Apple today seeded the release candidate of an upcoming iOS 27.2 update to developers for testing purposes, with the update coming a week after Apple released the fourth iOS 27.2 beta. Apple also seeded the iPadOS 27.2 RC. Registered developers can download the beta updates by opting in under Settings > General > Software Update and selecting the iOS 27 developer beta. The beta was used to test the new &zwnj;iOS 27&zwnj; Health app, but the features have since been removed and will be coming in a later update. It expands Siri AI to new languages including French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish. There are now profiles for the Apple TV app, Call Context supports anniversary alerts, and Apple Music has a new icon. The update also supports an alternative expanded prompt for App Tracking Transparency in the European Union. Apple previously said the new &zwnj;Siri&zwnj; AI languages in iOS 27.2 would be available in October, so we are expecting iOS 27.2 to see a public launch before the end of the month. With the RC out, the update could come next week.
