Examples of Apple Intelligence at work.



Apple is now on its second round of developer betas for iOS 18.5, iPadOS 18.5, macOS 15.5, tvOS 18.5, watchOS 11.5, and visionOS 2.5.

The first round of iOS 18.5, iPadOS 18.5, macOS 15.5, tvOS 18.5, watchOS 11.5, and visionOS 2.5 arrived on March 17, following the release of the updates from the preceding beta-testing cycle.

The second iOS 18.5 and iPadOS 18.5 developer betas share build number 22F5053f, replacing 22F5042g. The second macOS Sequoia 15.5 build uses number 24F5053f, up from 24F5042g.

The second tvOS 18.5 build is 22L5553d, the second watchOS 11.5 build is 22T5553d, and the second visionOS 2.5 build is 22O5453e.

The first iOS developer beta included options to show and hide contact photos within the Mail app, as well as some Settings improvements, as part of a more sparse beta round.

AppleInsider and Apple strongly recommend that users do not install beta operating systems or other software being tested onto “mission-critical” or primary hardware, due to the ever-present danger of bugs and issues that could result in the loss of data. As always, testers should use secondary or non-essential devices and ensure they have sufficient backups of any critical data.
