Apple Seeds Second visionOS 2.1 Release Candidate to Developers for Testing

Apple Seeds Second visionOS 2.1 Release Candidate to Developers for Testing

Apple has released a second release candidate of its upcoming visionOS 2.1 update to developers for final testing before the update is released to the public. The new release candidate comes just one day following the release of the original RC.

The ‌visionOS‌ 2.1 release candidate can be downloaded by developers by going to the Settings app on the device and toggling on the developer betas switch. Access to the release candidate requires a registered developer account. Apple recommends that developers make a backup before installing the new beta.

While Apple hasn’t yet announced what’s included in visionOS 2.1, there are visionOS 2 features that have not yet been released, including support for Multiview for MLS and MLB games and the option to use a larger ultra-wide screen for the Mac Virtual Display.

Apple’s release notes do say that the second visionOS 2.1 RC fixes an issue that could cause Apple Music songs and music videos to fail to play.

visionOS 2.1 is expected to be released alongside iOS 18.1 next Monday.

As usual, both MacTrast and Apple warn users to not install any betas or release candidates on their daily driver Apple Vision Pro, instead only installing betas on devices set aside for testing purposes.
