When Will watchOS 10.4 Be Released?

Apple’s confirmed a new watchOS 10.4 update. We don’t have an official release date from Apple, but we can help you set proper expectations regarding its arrival.

watchOS 10.4 is a milestone upgrade, the fourth for watchOS 10, and it will bring enhancements and fixes to compatible Apple Watch models.

Among the changes are new emoji characters for the Messages app, a change that should delight those of you who love sending those characters to friends and family from your Apple Watch.

watchOS 10.4 will stay in beta testing for a bit longer, but we expect the software to arrive later on this month.

The company’s pushed the watchOS 10.4 Release Candidate, or RC, which is the final version of the beta. This means the public release is imminent.

With the final beta now live, we should see watchOS 10.4 arrive this week or, at the very latest, sometime next week. Apple recently pushed new software to the iPhone and iPad so watchOS 10.4 shouldn’t be far behind.

Once Apple pushes watchOS 10.4 to Apple Watch users, look for the company to put a new watchOS 10.5 update into beta testing alongside new software for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
