Apple rolled out iOS 15.6 beta 3 and iPadOS 15.6 beta 3 on Tuesday, June 14th.

With the first iOS 16 developer beta arriving during WWDC 2022, we expect iOS 15.6 to be the last significant update for iOS 15. There shouldn’t be any notable new features or changes in iOS 15.6. Rather, we expect to see minor bug fixes and improvements.

What’s new in iOS 15.6 beta 3?

We’ll update this space when we know more about the latest beta.

Which devices work with the new beta?
