Apple has released the third iOS 27.2 developer beta for iPhone. The update follows the release of iOS 27 to everyone. It also leaps over iOS 27.1, which Apple has shown as an iPhone Duo-focused release.

iOS 27.2 is the next release that will follow the official launch of iOS 27 from September 14. iOS 27.1 is just for iPhone Duo.

Apple has already detailed how the iOS 27.1 SDK will let developers take full advantage of the iPhone Duo display. You can see how apps will appear on iPhone Duo based on which iOS version they target here .

Apple released Xcode 27.1 beta on September 18, adding the iPhone Duo simulator and app development support for the new foldable iPhone.

Apple’s redesigned Health app first announced during the iPhone 18 Pro event is now live in this beta.

Siri AI language support now includes French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish.

Up Next is now New Episodes in Apple Podcasts. Continue Playing section is now directly below New Episodes. Podcasts also have color-matched backgrounds on episode lists.

Apple Music uses less of the icon’s color for labels in the app now.

We’ll cover new features and other changes from the third beta in a separate roundup if anything new is discovered. Stay tuned for our ongoing iOS 27.2 beta coverage.
