Apple releases the fourth public beta of watchOS 7.6 - TechnW3

watchOS 7, the next iteration of Apple Watch software, is now available as a public beta for the first time.

Unlike previous years, Apple is offering a watchOS public beta for the first time with watchOS 7 and its subsequent updates. This allows more people to test out new features coming to Apple Watch. While it comes with risks (like not being able to downgrade), it's also a great chance for Apple to get more feedback on upcoming changes.

Apple occasionally offers updates to iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, and macOS as closed developer previews or public betas. While the betas contain new features, they also contain pre-release bugs that can prevent the normal use of your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV, or Mac, and are not intended for everyday use on a primary device. That's why we strongly recommend staying away from developer previews unless you need them for software development, and using the public betas with caution. If you depend on your devices, wait for the final release.
