Apple has rolled out visionOS 26.3 beta 3 for developers, continuing the testing cycle for Apple Vision Pro. The update arrived the same day Apple shipped iOS 26.2.1 to the public, marking another busy release day across Apple’s software lineup.
Right now, this is a developer beta. You will see the exact build number after installation by going to Settings > General > About on your Vision Pro.
Apple has not shared full public-facing details about what changed in this beta yet. At the same time, reports already point to the next phase: 26.4 betas are expected to start in February 2026, with the Siri work drawing the most attention because multiple reports link that update to Google Gemini-related upgrades.

Changes in visionOS 26.3 beta 3
Apple has not highlighted specific new features for this beta, and early testers have not surfaced headline additions yet. For most developers, this release looks like a stability-focused step as Apple moves through the 26.3 cycle.
Here is what to watch for as you install and test:
- Bug fixes and performance tuning: expect under-the-hood improvements that reduce glitches and improve system reliability during daily use.
- Developer-focused refinements: small platform adjustments that help apps behave more consistently across builds, even when Apple does not call them out publicly.
What’s next after 26.3
Attention is already shifting to version 26.4, because reporting says Apple plans to move faster on its Siri upgrade work and start the next beta cycle in February 2026. Several reports tie that effort to Gemini-powered Siri improvements that Apple may preview or introduce during the 26.4 beta window.
