It seems that in recent weeks Apple engineers are no longer working together. For several weeks the different betas of iOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS are no longer released together, something that the company was not used to. A few hours ago the guys from Cupertino have launched the third beta of watchOS 3.1, beta that as usual, only available to developers. This new beta continues to focus on improving the performance and stability of the Apple smartwatch without offering any important news, as we have been able to read in the notes of this new beta.
The third version of watchOS brought us important news, especially in terms of speed and operation of the applications. With watchOS 3, opening and managing applications is much faster than with the previous version. In addition, it has also brought us the possibility of being able to unlock our Mac through the Apple Watch, yes, the Mac must be at least from the year 2013. Once again, users with older Macs are left out of the news that Apple brings us in its new versions of macOS, iOS and watchOS.
Any developer who wants to install this latest beta should go to the Developer Center and download the corresponding profile for the watchos 3 certificate. For all those users who have already installed any of the previous watchOS 3.1 betas, all they have to do is go to the Apple Watch application of the iPhone and click on Software Update.
Apple only releases the watchOS X betas for developers since today it is still impossible to downgrade and revert to the previous version of watchOS if the current version has performance or operation problems. If we want to go back to a previous version we are going to have to go to an Apple Store.
