Apple Seeds Updated watchOS 27.2 Release Candidate

Apple has released an updated version of watchOS 27.2, the fourth day after the initial release candidate became available. Registered developers and public beta testers can update their devices via the Apple Watch Settings app or the Apple Watch app on an iPhone. This latest version incorporates advancements in the Siri AI, expanding its capabilities across multiple languages and functionality.

Siri AI now retains useful context from previous interactions, drawing upon a wider range of personal information to provide faster responses on Apple Watch. Additional features include Siri AI's ability to integrate past conversations into new queries, utilizing sources such as photos in Messages, attendees of Calendar events, voicemails, and improved results from Safari history and Reading List on the user's iPhone.

Furthermore, the update introduces an 'Excluded Apps' feature, allowing users to control which apps Siri, Search, and suggestions can access through a single setting on their iPhone.

WatchOS 27.2 also introduces Siri AI support for French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish, alongside previously available languages. However, the AI's capabilities remain restricted in the EU and mainland China. The launch of watchOS 27.2 and subsequent updates is anticipated for the following week.
