Apple seeded the sixth beta of tvOS 27 to developers a week after the fifth release. The beta can be downloaded and installed through the Settings app on the Apple TV; a free developer account is required.

tvOS 27 adds a redesigned Podcasts app, options for larger text, and a more responsive Control Center. AirPlay to an Apple TV from another Apple device is faster, and apps and animations run smoother.

Users can now view AppleCare coverage details in the Settings app. Additional feature details are available in the Apple TV roundup.

Developers can test the beta, provide feedback, and help shape the final release.
