Aug 5, 2019

Looking to download watchOS 6 beta 5 without a developer account? We'll walk you through the process.

Apple released watchOS 6 beta 5 last week and just like the couple of other betas before it, this one is packed with a handful of bug fixes ensuring that things are as stable as possible for those testing it out. This also means that you have to be a registered developer with Apple in order to take the latest watchOS 6 beta for a spin. The beta is not available for Beta Software Program testers as a public beta, unlike iOS 13, macOS Catalina and tvOS 13.

You can either download it via the Beta Software Program or by downloading the developer profile. Both tutorials are linked below:

Once that is out of the way, simply download this profile straight onto your iPhone and set the installation destination as your Apple Watch. Please be very careful while installing this beta as things can be very, very unstable for lots of users out there. You will experience broken app compatibility and the occasional stutter which might get in the way of normal every-day use.
