A couple of weeks since the first beta of tvOS 16 was released, Apple is now seeding its second version. Although the company almost forgot about the Apple TV operating system during the WWDC 2022 keynote, there are some features users should be excited about when it launches later this fall.
Today’s build is 20J5319h. Different from the other betas, developers need to download the tvOS 16 testing version through Xcode. In addition, Apple still hasn’t released the build of the HomePod Software 16, so it’s not clear what the company is holding for its smart speaker lineup.
That said, here’s what’s new with tvOS 16:
Last but not least, HomePod Software 16 will be the first to add public beta testing. As of now, only a small selection of developers can try the beta version of HomePod OS, which is a variation of tvOS 16.
Alongside tvOS 16 beta 2, Apple is seeding iOS 16 beta 2, iPadOS 16 beta 2, watchOS 9 beta 2, and macOS 13 Ventura beta 2.
