After more than a month of beta testing, Apple has made iOS 15.2 Release Candidate available to developers. See the full release notes below for everything new in this update, which will be released to the public next week.

Update: Now also available for public beta testers.

Today's new version of iOS 15.2 RC is available to developers through an over-the-air update in the Settings app. As usual, if the update doesn't appear immediately for download, keep checking, as it sometimes takes a few minutes for all registered developers to release. The iOS 15.2 RC version number is 19C56.

As a refresher, iOS 15.2 brings some notable changes for iPhone and iPad users. In particular, it adds the full "Application Privacy Report" feature to the Settings application. With this, users can now view data accessed by applications, including third-party applications and Apple applications.
