Summary
Apple opened the first public beta of iOS 27.3 on Monday, extending testing beyond developers about two months after iOS 27 and the iPhone 18 Pro launch.
The update restores the redesigned Health app—previously seen in an early 27.2 beta—with a new Longevity tab and Health Age, which Apple says should reach devices later this year.
Audio Intelligence adds Live Rewind, which pulls up a transcript of the past 15 seconds on Apple Watch, and Siri Recap, which summarizes meetings and conversations before auto-deleting after seven days unless saved.
Siri AI also gains more in-app actions, including creating Apple Music playlists and scheduling or unsending Messages, while expanding to Traditional Chinese, Vietnamese, Turkish and Norwegian.
Other additions include Fitness Plus Gym Strength at $10 a month, new StandBy weather and calendar slides, and Safari Adaptive Dark Mode, with a broader iOS 27.3 release expected before year-end.
