Apple has released the iOS 27.2 beta 4, which does not include the newly tested Health app. This removal of the updated Health app from the iOS 27.2 beta is not unexpected, as the company had previously indicated that it was not meant to be part of the iOS 27.2 release. Apple informed MacRumors that the Health app was being evaluated during the beta testing phase but would not be launched until later in the year.
Following the upgrade to the fourth beta, the Health app displays a message stating that the new features will be introduced in a subsequent update. The data collected during the beta period remains accessible within the Settings app. Apple aims to launch iOS 27.2 in October, and the elimination of the Health app indicates that the release date is drawing nearer.
The HomePod mini 2, which will be available on October 30, utilizes HomePod software 27.2, so the updates will have to be released prior to this date.
