Summary
iOS 27 Beta 5 arrives with a redesigned Find My app, restored Spotlight search memory, a more transparent Siri interface and Apple Pay receipts in select apps.
Geekbench 6 results cited for the beta show about 10,000 multi-core and 3,834 single-core, alongside battery-life gains aimed at smoothing heavy tasks before release.
Apple is also moving from a biweekly to a weekly beta cadence, with Beta 6 due Aug. 10, Beta 7 on Aug. 17 and Beta 8 on Aug. 24.
That faster schedule points to a release candidate around Sept. 7 or 8 near Apple’s iPhone event, ahead of the expected public rollout on Sept. 14.
