Apple Seeds First Beta of watchOS 6.2.8 to Developers

Apple on Wednesday released the initial beta of watchOS 6.2.8 to developers for testing. The new beta comes two weeks after the public release of the watchOS 6.2.5 update.

The watchOS 6.2.8 beta can be installed on an Apple Watch with the proper configuration profile installed, via the Watch app on the device’s attached iPhone. Go to “General” -> “Software Update” to install the new software. The Watch should have at least 50% battery life, be connected to a charger, and be in the range of the iPhone.

No new features have been as yet discovered in watchOS 6.2.8, but we’ll update this article if we hear of anything new.

As usual, MacTrast and Apple both warn users to not install any betas on your daily driver Apple Watch, instead only install betas on a device set aside for testing purposes.
