Apple has released new software betas for developers—here’s what’s included in this fifth beta:
- Xcode 9 beta 5 (9M202q)
- macOS High Sierra 10.13 beta 5 (17A330h)
- iOS 11 beta 5 (15A5341f)
- watchOS 4 beta 5 (15R5345g)
- tvOS 11 beta 5 (15J5347f)
Apple said in its release notes, “32-bit apps will not run on future betas of iOS 11,” so this fifth beta looks to be the last chance for developers to test apps on this latest beta. Apple already stated 32-bit apps won’t work in iOS 11, as only 64-bit apps will be supported in the App Store.
Also new today is macOS Server 5.4 beta 5, version 17S1180a.
