Key updates include localized asset packs in Managed Background Assets (iOS 27), which reduce download sizes by delivering only language-specific assets.

The session also covers StoreKit Testing in Xcode 27, a redesigned iOS 27 payment sheet with landscape support, and new App Store/Apple Games app visual assets for product pages. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
