Apple’s iOS 27.3 beta adds Safari features and redesigned Health app
Apple has released the first beta of iOS 27.3 for testing on its devices.
The update brings back a redesigned Health app that was briefly available during the iOS 27.2 beta cycle.
It adds a Longevity tab, health summaries and a “Health Age” comparison with a person’s physical age.
In Safari, users can choose vertical tabs and an AI feature that darkens websites without a built-in dark mode.
Siri AI can now understand webpages and manage tabs, and it is available in four additional languages: Norwegian, Traditional Chinese, Turkish and Vietnamese.
These features are currently in beta, so they are being tested before any wider release.
