Since Apple’s WWDC23, Apple has been releasing a new update every few days. Recently, Apple started the second round of the iOS 16.6 beta, macOS 13.5 beta, and other updates. Now, Apple has made the iOS 16.6 Beta update available. If you’re looking to learn more about the new update, then this guide is perfect for you. In this guide, you will get to know about Apple starting to push the iOS 16.6 Beta 3 update.
Apple pushing the new iOS 16.6 Beta 3 update
The third beta of iOS 16.6 has become available within two weeks of the last beta. Apple will be continuing the testing for iOS 16 beta builds alongside the iOS 17 beta. Currently, iOS 16.6 is the newest build in the testing.
Although many people have already started talking about the upcoming iOS 17 and its developer beta, it is still far away. It isn’t the right time for users to jump into installing iOS 17 developer beta due to the chances of bugs. As of now, iOS 16.6 beta 3 is the latest and best beta option available.
Alongside the iOS 16.6 beta 3, Apple has also come out with watchOS 9.6 Beta 3, tvOS 16.6 Beta 3, iPadOS 16.6 Beta 3, macOS Monterey 12.6.8 RC3, macOS Ventura 13.5 Beta 3, and macOS Big Sur 11.7.9 RC 3. The latest iOS 16.6 Beta 3 update comes with the build number 20G5047d. Since this isn’t a major update, it isn’t surprising that it doesn’t include any new features and only has a few bug fixes.
How to apply for the new beta update
The new iOS 16.6 Beta 3 update is currently available to developers but it’ll be made available to the Public Beta Testers soon. If you’re already on iOS 16.6 beta, you will be getting the OTA update on your device.
To check for this update, you should head over to Settings -> General -> Software Update.
