iOS 10.2 release date, news: beta 2, 3 introduce new add-ons for users to test
Apple has recently released the second and third beta for the iOS 10.2. If everything goes well during the test run of these two drafts of the upcoming operating system update, the final version may finally appease some of the growing concerns of Apple users. Moreover, the Cupertino-based tech giant is very much oriented to the fact that groups such as hacker collective Pangu are painstakingly looking for flaws within the OS that would facilitate the release of the iOS 10 jailbreak tool.
However, it needs to be said that these just beta versions of the upcoming update so users should expect to see some bugs and glitches upon acquisition of the update.
Reports also say that the iOS 10.2 will come alongside other add-ons that Apple fans and developers alike can look forward to. It was noted that some of the features include additional emojis, a new TV application, wallpapers for the iPhone 7, and more camera attributes.
Consumers who have been able try the beta 2 version spotted some tweaks which include a Preserve camera app setting, the aforementioned inclusion of the TV app under the Videos category, an improved widget for the Videos app, and a feature where users can activate an SOS signal if they press the device's power button for five consecutive times.
Meanwhile, the third beta version had fewer features to boast as it was mentioned that it just came out fresh from the oven. Some features include the reinstatement of the Feedback app and additional options for the new TV app.
It's not yet certain as to when the final version of iOS 10.2 will be released. Fans will just have to periodically check Apple's website to follow the current development of the new OS.
