iPadOS & iOS 16.2 Release Date
Based on the fact that Apple releases incremental software updates for all its devices in the same day we can safely assume that December 13 will be also the release day for iOS 16.2 and its iPadOS counterpart!
iOS 16.2 Release Notes
Based on the RC version here is the update log for this rollout:
watchOS 9.2 Release Date
Planned iOS and watchOS updates happen in the same day, which means that Tuesday, December 13 will most likely be the release day of a new Apple Watch software update!
watchOS 9.2 Release Notes
Here is the prospected update log, confirmed by the Release Candidate version seeded a couple of days ago:
tvOS 16.2 Release Date
tvOS 16.1 has been released alongside all other 16.1 updates for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and HomePod. We don’t have any reason to believe that 16.2 will be different. Expect this update to roll out on December 13 also!
tvOS 16.2 Release Notes

HomePod 16.2 Release Date
Considering that this new software lineup will change the Home app architecture to make it fully compatible with the new Matter standard, we strongly believe that a new HomePod firmware will be also seeded Tuesday, December 13!
