Apple Releases watchOS 27 Beta 2, Completing 5-Platform Developer Lineup

Summary
watchOS 27 developer beta 2 is now live, filling the only gap left after Apple updated iOS 27, iPadOS 27 and its other platforms a day earlier.
Testers can download it through the Watch app on an iPhone already running iOS 27, though Apple Watch Ultra 3 is currently excluded from the release.
Siri AI remains the key feature to watch: Apple had said it would arrive in a future watchOS 27 beta after missing the first release earlier this month.
That upgrade is central to Apple’s push for a single Siri experience across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Vision Pro and Apple Watch, with broader watchOS 27 support limited on some older models.
