As expected, Apple released the second beta of iOS 14, iPadOS 14, tvOS 14, watchOS 7 and macOS 11 Big Sur this evening.
Apple rolled out the second beta of the new operating system for registered developers this evening. The new updates are available for download over the air or in the Developer Center. If the updates are not available immediately, it is because they are currently being rolled out. According to Apple, the first test version for public beta testers will be released sometime this month. You can find out how you can try out iOS 14 yourself in our comprehensive guide. It can be assumed that the updates will primarily focus on performance improvements and stability. However, new features are not excluded. If there are any interesting new features or leaks, we will report on them separately as always. If you want to find out more about iOS 14 in the meantime, you should check out our archive look around – have fun browsing.
Are you also a beta tester and would like to exchange ideas with other testers? Then you could join our Telegram group (Apfelpatient – Beta Workshop) might be just right for you.
Notice – As usual, a preview should not be installed on an actively used iPhone or iPad, as these are usually quite unstable and buggy – we recommend using a second device for this. (Photo by nikkimeel / Bigstockphoto)
