14 DAY TRIAL // Apple released today the fifth beta of its upcoming iOS 13, iPadOS 13, and tvOS 13 operating systems to registered developers.
Coming less than two weeks after the fourth developer beta release, the iOS 13 beta 5 (17A5547d), iPadOS 13 beta 5 (17A5547d), and tvOS 13 beta 5 (17J5540d) software updates are now available for download and installation on all supported devices.
Developers registered in the Apple Developer portal can now install the fifth beta release of iOS 13, iPadOS 13, and tvOS 13 on their devices dedicated to beta software development. At the moment of writing, Apple did not release a beta 5 version of macOS Catalina 10.15 and watchOS 6, but we'll keep you updated if they appear online.
The macOS Catalina 10.15 beta 4 release is still buggy and incompatible with SwiftUI in Xcode 11 beta 5, but Apple said it will fix the issues in the beta 5 release, which we hope they will release shortly. Additionally, macOS Catalina 10.15 beta 4 doesn't work on the 13-inch MacBook Air 2019 Retina model.
Public beta 4 of iOS 13, iPadOS 13, and tvOS 13 coming soon
We believe Apple will also release the fourth public beta of iOS 13, iPadOS 13, and tvOS 13 in the coming days to let public beta testers also test drive and report issues with the latest beta release. As usual, we'll let you know when the iOS 13, iPadOS 13, and tvOS 13 public beta 4 are available for download.
Apple plans to release the final iOS 13, iPadOS 13, macOS Catalina 10.15, tvOS 13, and watchOS 6 operating systems this fall, most probably in late September after the annual iPhone line-up announcement. These are major new releases that include exciting new features and many enhancements.
Update 30/07/19: Apple released the public beta 4 of iOS 13, iPadOS 13, and tvOS 13 to public beta testers, as well as the watchOS 6 beta 5 to developers. More details are available here.
Update 01/08/19: Apple released the fifth developer beta of macOS 10.15 Catalina, as well as the fourth public beta.
