Title: Apple Seeds Second Beta of watchOS 8.1 to Developers Post by: HCK on September 29, 2021, 04:05:09 pm Apple Seeds Second Beta of watchOS 8.1 to Developers
Apple today seeded the second beta of an upcoming watchOS 8.1 beta to developers for testing purposes, with the update coming one week after the release of the first beta (https://www.macrumors.com/2021/09/21/apple-seeds-watchos-8-1-beta-1-to-developers/) and a week after the release of the watchOS 8 update (https://www.macrumors.com/2021/09/20/watchos-8-now-available/). (https://images.macrumors.com/article-new/2021/06/watchOS-8-on-Apple-Watch-feature.jpg) To install watchOS 8.1, developers will need to download the configuration profile from the Apple Developer Center. Once installed, watchOS 8 (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/watchos-8/) can be downloaded through the dedicated Apple Watch app on the iPhone (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/iphone/) by going to General > Software update. To update to new software, an Apple Watch needs to have 50 percent battery life, it must be placed on the charger, and it needs to be in range of the ‌iPhone‌. We don't yet know what's new in ‌watchOS 8‌ and there were no new features found in the first beta, but we'll update this article should anything new pop up in the second beta.<div class="linkback">Related Roundup: Apple Watch Series 7 (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/apple-watch/)</div><div class="linkback">Buyer's Guide: Apple Watch (Don't Buy) (https://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#Apple_Watch)</div><div class="linkback">Related Forum: Apple Watch (https://forums.macrumors.com/forums/apple-watch.172)</div> This article, "Apple Seeds Second Beta of watchOS 8.1 to Developers (https://www.macrumors.com/2021/09/28/apple-seeds-watchos-8-1-beta-2/)" first appeared on MacRumors.com (https://www.macrumors.com) Discuss this article (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-seeds-second-beta-of-watchos-8-1-to-developers.2314206/) in our forums <div class="feedflare"> <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/MacRumors-Front?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img> (http://feeds.macrumors.com/~ff/MacRumors-Front?a=_3_X_eJx2C8:Lrx8T7tHn30:yIl2AUoC8zA) <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/MacRumors-Front?d=6W8y8wAjSf4" border="0"></img> (http://feeds.macrumors.com/~ff/MacRumors-Front?a=_3_X_eJx2C8:Lrx8T7tHn30:6W8y8wAjSf4) <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/MacRumors-Front?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img> (http://feeds.macrumors.com/~ff/MacRumors-Front?a=_3_X_eJx2C8:Lrx8T7tHn30:qj6IDK7rITs) </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MacRumors-Front/~4/_3_X_eJx2C8" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> Source: Apple Seeds Second Beta of watchOS 8.1 to Developers (https://www.macrumors.com/2021/09/28/apple-seeds-watchos-8-1-beta-2/) |
