Following the release of the fifth beta of iOS 16.1 on Tuesday, Apple has now released watchOS 9.1 beta 5 to developers. The update comes to improve the stability of the Apple Watch operating system, which is now in its ninth version.
In addition to the developer beta, Apple has also released today’s build for users registered in the Apple Beta Software Program.
What’s new in watchOS 9.1?
The build number of today’s update is “20S5072a,” compared to the previous build “20S5063c” from beta 4. Unfortunately, there are no release notes for watchOS 9.1, so the changes coming with the update remain unclear. Apple is likely working on under-the-hood enhancements, such as bug fixes and security improvements.
