Apple Seeds Second Beta of watchOS 5.2 to Developers

Apple today seeded the second beta of an upcoming watchOS 5.2 update to developers, almost two weeks after seeding the first watchOS 5.2 beta and two weeks after releasing watchOS 5.1.3.

Once the proper configuration profile has been installed from the Apple Developer Center, the new watchOS beta can be downloaded through the dedicated Apple Watch app on the iPhone by going to General --> Software update.

To install the update, the Apple Watch needs to have at least 50 percent battery, it must be placed on the charger, and it has to be in range of the iPhone.

There were no major changes discovered in watchOS with the release of the first beta, but we'll update this post should we find new features or major tweaks worth noting in the second.

Highly doubted for these locations for a while. Australia is far more likely but not in a beta anyway
