Apple has rolled out public beta versions of iPadOS 27.2, watchOS 27.2, tvOS 27.2, and more, giving non-developers early access to the latest software updates. These builds match developer beta 2 released yesterday.

The most notable changes appear in iPadOS 27.2 and iOS 27.2. iPadOS 27.2 introduces the all-new Health app with Apple Intelligence features, including Insights and Longevity tabs. It also adds Profiles for the Apple TV app, a long-awaited feature for parents managing children's video viewing on iPad.

Additionally, the update brings a handy Siri AI feature previously exclusive to macOS Golden Gate, and Siri AI now supports several new languages. Users interested in installing today's public betas should visit the Software Update screen in Settings and ensure they are opted into beta updates.

Apple skipped 27.1 in beta as it reportedly focuses primarily on iPhone Duo-related changes. The company launched major new software versions for all users last Monday, including iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27 Golden Gate, watchOS 27, and tvOS 27.
