    tvOS 26 beta 3 brings these 7 improvements to Apple TV users
    A month after Apple previewed tvOS 26 beta during the WWDC 2025 keynote, the company is now releasing its third test version. As it's been doing in the past few years, tvOS 26 is another packed update to Apple TV users, even though not every set-top box will get all the new capabilities.Still, tvOS 26 beta 3 brings the new Liquid Glass design for Apple TV users. While this design change isn't as profound as the ones seen on iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS Tahoe, Apple is also adding it to its set-top boxes as the Apple TV gets "even more immersive, enjoyable, and convenient."This comes alongside a revamped Apple TV app, which now showcases cinematic poster art to make it easier to discover what to watch next. Apple also wants to make it easier for Apple TV users to log in to their apps when using tvOS 26. With a new API available to developers, Apple says it will be easier to sign in when setting up a new device.Besides that, tvOS 26 beta 3 continues to improve on profile switching.

    watchOS 26 beta 3 now available with 6 new features
    A couple of weeks after seeding watchOS 26 beta 2, Apple is now releasing its third testing version. At this moment, it's unclear what's new with this update. However, Cupertino is likely fixing bugs and improving battery life ahead of the fall release.In addition, Apple prepares the public beta of watchOS 26. If the company follows the trend, this version should be available in the next few days. Still, you shouldn't update to the public beta before reading this.That said, watchOS 26 also takes advantage of the new Liquid Glass design. While the visual changes are more subtle, Cupertino is improving some Watch Faces to use the maximum potential of the new Apple Watch Series 10 display. Unfortunately, so far, it seems watchOS 26 beta also removes loved Watch Faces, while it's still unclear if Apple plans to add new ones during this testing cycle.Besides that, the Smart Stack is now smarter, as it suggests information based on your location. Or, if you're without cellular connection, the Apple Watch can retrace your way back. A new wrist flick for Apple Watch Series 9 and newer makes it easier to dismiss notifications and go back to the Watch Face. Users just need to turn their wrist over and then back for that.Apple is also preparing interesting Apple Intelligence features that rely on an iPhone 15 Pro or newer. Two of the most important functions are:Live Translation: With an Apple Watch Series 9 and newer, you'll see Live Translation capabilities inside the Messages app, which means messages in an unknown language will be translated automatically to your preferred language.Workout Buddy: Apple added a new fitness experience that "generates personalized pep talks using voice data from an Apple Fitness+ trainer."
