Apple Seeds watchOS 2 Beta 5

Apple continues to incrementally push new beta updates for watchOS 2 ahead of the softwares public release this coming fall.

WatchOS 2 will allow developers to build native applications that do not rely so much on the iPhone for processing. The OS will also allow for third-party complications as well as give developers the ability to tap into the sensors and input functions such as the Digital Crown that have so far been only available for Apple-built software.

We’ll check out the latest watchOS 2 beta to find other new changes.

Here are the release notes:

• Currently available via the Developer Center
• watchOS 2 beta 5 features build label 13S5325c
• Reminder: Updating watchOS 2 beta requires iOS 9 and Apple Watch to be on charger with at least 50% battery
