Apple has released the release candidate builds of watchOS 26.6, tvOS 26.6, and visionOS 26.6 to developers for final testing, one week after seeding the fifth betas.

A release candidate, or RC, is typically the final build that goes out to the public if no last-minute bugs are found during testing.

The updates are available through the Settings app on each device. As these are developer betas, installation requires a free developer account.

Apple has not said what is new in these builds. As MacRumors notes, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS updates often arrive with few visible features, focusing instead on bug fixes and performance improvements.
