We didn’t get the new Apple TV 4K model some had predicted in today’s fast-paced ‘Surprise and shine’ event, but the developer and public Release Candidate (RC) of tvOS 27 is now rolling out … As is usual for tvOS Apple hasn’t provided any release notes, but the RC is the version the company expects to be the final one before the official release next week. You’ll be able to install it by opening the Settings app on your Apple TV and navigating to System > Software Update. FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links. More.
