Apple today seeded the first beta of an upcoming tvOS 14.2 update to developers for testing purposes, with the new beta coming just a day after the release of the tvOS 14 update.

Designed for the fourth and fifth-generation Apple TV models, the tvOS 14.2 developer beta can be downloaded onto the ‌‌‌‌‌‌Apple TV‌‌‌‌‌‌ via a profile that’s installed using Xcode.

tvOS updates other than new releases are typically minor in scale, focusing on under-the-hood bug fixes and improvements rather than major outward-facing changes. There’s no word yet on what’s included in tvOS 14.2 update, but we’ll update this article should anything new be found.

Nah it’s sitting in a warehouse over here, ready to ship since last May according to a mixed-record leaker.

Im ready though. My second gen ? is basically obsolete. The current box is fine but I’ll wait to see what features the new model(s) add.

Hmmm....updating to 14.2 beta broke my Atmos. Anyone else had this happen?
Yes I confirm no Dolby Atmos after the beta

So this might be a stretch... but could the skip of 14.1 indicate that there’s an Apple TV refresh next month with the iPhones?
