After a little more than a month and a few beta and RC versions, Apple has now released macOS Sequoia 15.6 for download. Here’s what’s new.

While macOS 15.6 doesn’t introduce big user-facing features, it does come with the usual security updates and general performance improvements, as well as an important bug fix:

Fixed: Finder and Apple Configurator may be unable to successfully restore some devices from DFU mode. (153476458)

This means that running a previous system version could fail to properly restore devices from DFU mode, resulting in a bricked device and a trip to an Apple Store or support center.

It is possible that this may be the last macOS 15.x update before the official release of macOS Tahoe 26 .

Last year, Apple released macOS 14.7 on the same day that macOS 15 was released, so we could still see a beta of macOS 15.7 ahead of a simultaneous release of macOS Tahoe 26 and macOS 15.7.

Alongside the release of macOS 15.6, Apple also released the official versions of:

• iOS 18.6
• iPadOS 18.6
• tvOS 18.6
• watchOS 11.6
• HomePod 18.6
• visionOS 2.6
