Apple is expected to release public betas any day now for iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, watchOS 11, and more.
One update that won’t be getting a public beta, though? visionOS 2, as Apple’s beta website confirms that the Vision Pro won’t be part of this summer’s public beta cycle.
Vision Pro still developer-only for betas, including visionOS 2
Apple’s public beta website confirms every platform that will be getting public beta releases soon, and the Vision Pro unfortunately isn’t among them.
This isn’t altogether a surprise, as the Vision Pro has never previously been part of the public beta program.
However, since the device only just launched earlier this year, it has never before had a major update to offer until now. Smaller software updates like visionOS 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 have been available as developer betas, and visionOS 2 is too.
Summer is a big time for public betas, though, so now seems like the perfect opportunity for Apple to add the Vision Pro and visionOS 2 to the public beta program.
Alas, that won’t be the case.
This means the new features offered by visionOS 2 will remain exclusive to developers until the release’s expected public launch in the fall.
Would you install a visionOS 2 public beta if one were offered? Let us know in the comments.
