Apple Seeds Ninth Beta of iOS 12 to Developers

Apple today seeded the beta of iOS 12 update to developers for testing purposes, five days after seeding the beta and more than two months after introducing the software at Worldwide Developers Conference..   iOS 12 introduces major new features, with Apple revamping the operating system from top to bottom to make iPhones and iPads, especially the older models, faster and more responsive..   Apple originally planned to introduce Group FaceTime support iOS 12, and the feature was removed iOS 12 7 and will not be reintroduced until later this fall in future update to iOS 12..   Apple News has Browse feature, Stocks app has been redesigned and brought to iPad, iBooks has been overhauled with new look and new name -- Apple Books -- and Voice Memos has been revamped with iCloud support and iPad app..   iOS 12 includes revamped and rebuilt Maps app that uses Apple-designed Maps engine that will display foliage, pools, buildings, pedestrian pathways, and other map elements more accurately.   We're on 9 rather than 8 because Apple last week was forced to release iOS beta to address issues in the beta that were causing slow app launch times..   iOS 12 is available for developers and beta testers, with public launch planned for September new iPhones..   Even to view Control Centre on iPhone X at the top right makes users to needless reach to the top of the screen, while swipe down to reachability.   The exception might be that's definitely possible...   It's interesting that each time beta drops MR posts complete copy and paste run down of iOS 12 features - same info posted 8 times before except for one line comment at the end noting anything different than the last beta..   Read more
