You can go ahead and download the watchOS 11.3 RC update on your Apple Watch device right now.
watchOS 11.3 RC Now Available for Download with Lots of Bug Fixes
Apple is set to release the final version of watchOS 11.3 next week, and if you’ve been testing out the beta update for a while, then you can go ahead and download watchOS 11.3 RC today.
All you have to do is place your Apple Watch on its magnetic charger, and then on your iPhone, launch the Watch app, go to General > Software Update. Tap on Update Now.
Once the update is installed on your device, you can breathe easy knowing that you are off the beta channel. After all, the RC update is the final version that is going to be released next week, not pre-release software.
I will highly recommend downloading the RC update on your Apple Watch right now to keep everything running as smoothly as possible.
In terms of features, there is absolutely nothing new in this update at all. watchOS 11.3 is completely about fixing bugs and improving performance.
Since watchOS 11.3 was available for public beta testers as well, you can go right ahead and install the RC if you’re willing to make a little effort.
The effort includes signing up to the beta program by going to beta.apple.com using Safari. Once done, just go to Watch > General > Software Update > Beta Updates and enable watchOS 11 Public Beta.
Once you do that, Apple will start sending you public beta updates for your Apple Watch. Just go to Watch > General > Software Update on your iPhone, and you’ll see the watchOS 11.3 RC update right here for download.
