Apple Releases watchOS 26.3, tvOS 26.3 and visionOS 26.3 Release Candidates

Apple today provided developers with candidate versions of the upcoming watchOS 26.3, tvOS 26.3, and visionOS 26.3 updates for testing purposes. The software comes a week after Apple released its third beta. Release candidates are the final version of updates that will be released to the public as long as no bugs are found.
Software updates are available through the Settings app on each device, and because these are developer betas, a free developer account is required.
We don’t know what new features might be added to watchOS 26.3, visionOS 26.3, and tvOS 26.3, and nothing new has been discovered so far. Apple doesn’t usually provide beta release notes, so we may not know what’s new until software updates see a public launch unless there are some outward looking changes.
A software update will likely be launched next week as RCs become available.
