Apple has recently unveiled public beta 4 for tvOS 26, HomePod 26, and additional updates. Here’s what you can anticipate.
### Public beta 4 launches as Apple’s summer testing phase comes to a conclusion
Apple’s summer beta period is beginning to draw to a close. With September just around the corner, beta releases are accelerating.
Earlier today, Apple rolled out fresh developer beta 7 updates for iOS 26, watchOS 26, macOS Tahoe, and more.
In the past few releases, Apple’s public beta versions have typically been released several days after the developer editions. However, this time, Apple has markedly reduced that timeframe.
Public beta 4 is now available for tvOS 26, HomePod 26, and other upcoming updates from Apple.
This update introduces the same improvements seen in developer beta 7, which concentrated on stability and performance.
Overall, we can anticipate only a few more public betas before Apple’s new operating systems are launched for all users.
That broad public rollout is anticipated to occur in mid-September, which is less than a month away.
If you haven’t joined Apple’s public beta program yet but wish to experience the upcoming updates a month early, you can register at beta.apple.com.
