Apple has pushed out the first developer beta for visionOS 27 following its WWDC26 keynote announcement. The beta is now rolling out to registered developers who have enrolled in the beta program for Apple Vision Pro. Users can access it through Settings > General > Software Update > Beta Updates.

The update introduces the Siri AI app and Visual Intelligence features alongside under-the-hood system improvements. Apple hasn't published detailed release notes yet, but the additions suggest a significant upgrade to the mixed reality experience. Developers can now test these new capabilities before the public release.

Apple's typical beta cycle means developers get early access to build and test apps with the new APIs. This gives them roughly three months to prepare for the stable launch, ensuring app compatibility and performance optimizations.

The visionOS 27 beta represents Apple's continued investment in spatial computing, though adoption remains limited to Vision Pro owners. Developers will need to evaluate whether the new features justify updating existing apps for a relatively niche hardware platform.
