Apple is back on time for its weekly appointment with the new Betas for all its operating systems and has just released iOS 10.2 Beta 2, tvOS 10.1 Beta 2 and watchOS 3.1.1 Beta 2, at the moment only for developers. All the new updates are already available from the developer center and for those users who have the previous trial versions installed, they will be able to access the new ones through the updates via OTA from the device itself.
10.2 iOS Beta 2
The main novelty of this next version of iOS is the inclusion of new emoji to use in our messaging applications. Emoji as requested as paella, the nauseous face or starting with laughter are some of those that are included in this new version that also brings another good handful of novelties such as:
- Three new wallpapers for the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus
- New Video app widget
- New option to save the Camera app options
- New "Celebration" effect for the Messages app
- New "push to talk" option within the accessibility menu
- New options in the Music application such as sorting the lists or rating with stars
- New icon for bluetooth audio devices
- New TV application (where available, not in Spain)
- Press the power button 5 times to call emergency services
watchOS 3.1.1 Beta 2
After completely rejuvenating your original Apple Watch with watchOS 3, a version that finally brought the long-awaited speed improvement when opening applications, Apple managed with watchOS 3.1 to improve the battery performance of our watches dramatically, arriving some users with the new versions to squeeze the battery for two full days. watchOS 3.1.1 is a minor update that is not expected to bring major improvements except for compatibility with the new emoji in iOS 1o.2.
tvOS 10.1 Beta 2
The new version for Apple TV brings the expected "single sign-on", a way to enter all the accounts of your contracted cable or internet services without having to enter your username and password in each one, but which can only be enjoy for the moment in the United States, and services such as Netflix have already announced that they will not participate in this feature, at least for now. It also brings the new TV application that will bring together all the programming of the main content providers in the United States, and that we will also take time to see (we may never see) here.
Those news were not in beta 1 ??
Yes, I speak in general about the new features of the version, they are cumulative. For example, the SOS call by pressing the power button five times is something new.
I still do not see anything new (Wallpapers? As if hundreds can not be added manually if one wants), New icon, snow stars option, etc.
And this thing that serves me in the day to day NOTHING at all so far nothing new nothing worth mentioning !!
