Apple has announced the rollout of release candidate (RC) versions of iPadOS 27.2, watchOS 27.2, and other software updates. This means the nearly-final versions of these operating systems are being prepared for release. Although the current public software version is 27.0, Apple is skipping straight to 27.2 for most devices, with iPhone Duo being an exception.
Release candidate builds are designed to be the final software versions that will be distributed to all users once released. While it's not uncommon for Apple to discover additional bugs in RC builds leading to a second RC, any changes are usually minor. Apple is expected to launch iPadOS 27.2 and the other updates by the end of October, with the launch likely occurring early next week. 9to5Mac will provide updates on any new discoveries in the RC builds.
