Apple released the release candidate versions of iOS 16.4, iPadOS 16.4, tvOS 16.4, watchOS 9.4 and macOS 13.3 for registered developers this evening.
Apple has now officially released the release candidate versions of iOS 16.4, iPadOS 16.4, tvOS 16.4, watchOS 9.4 and macOS 13.3. As a reminder, Apple announced at the end of last year that the term "Release Candidate" would replace the previous term "Golden Master". In future, Apple will use this to refer to a beta version that is nearing completion. With the RCs now available, iOS 16.4, iPadOS 16.4 and more could be released as early as next week. We have listed the update description below. (Photo by Victorych78 / Bigstockphoto)
