hi everyone Aaron here for ZolloTech and today Apple released iOS 13.5
developer beta 3 they've seemingly renamed iOS 13.4.5 to iOS 13.5
so that's a little bit confusing but it seems like maybe they're either
freeing up some names so they can have iOS 13.4.2, 13.5
or whatever they'd like and then have 13.5 as a larger
final release when it comes out it's kind of odd we haven't really seen this
before but it's something Apple just did with this particular update now this one
came in at two hundred and sixty one point one megabytes on my iPhone 11 pro
max also about the same size on the iPhone 10 hour the iPad air 2 and the
iPhone 6s plus now if you're not seeing this and you're a public beta tester
expect the public beta either later today or maybe tomorrow it would be iOS
13 point 5 public beta 2 but who knows they keep changing names at this point
now let's take a look at the build number the build number is 17 F 5 0 5 4
H and this particular build is bringing a few new features and I'll talk about
those in a moment but the first thing it doesn't bring is there's no new modem
update so if you were having issues with LTE connectivity or Wi-Fi don't expect
that to be fixed if you had an issue with 13.4.5 beta
2 right now there's no modem update apple also released Mac OS Catalina 10.15.5
beta 3 to developers watch OS 6.2.5 beta 3 and TV
OS 13.4.5 beta 3 to developers so all of those things have
been released now the notes don't say anything about what's new in this
particular update but there are two major things in this particular update
and this is something Apple has been talking about for a while and that is
contact tracing now by default you're opted in to contact tracing on your
phone if you have this beta so what you'll need to do is go down to privacy
and then if you want to see it you go under health and under health you'll see
here at the top it's already turned on so we can turn that off but what it says
is iPhone is using Bluetooth to securely
share your random IDs with nearby devices and collect their IDs this
enables an app to know Phyo if you've been exposed so it's all
random and then it says it's deleted after 14 days now this should work with
Android phones as well that are nearby and if you want to opt out you just turn
it off if not leave it on either way it will be available to different apps once
you install those apps but again expect a prompt when there's an app that
actually uses contact tracing now another thing that Apple's updated has
to do with face ID so if you're using a face mask and having problems with face
ID that's been updated to help you a little bit so let me show you what I
mean so let me use my iPhone 10 our here and we'll spin the camera around now if
i push put my face in my shirt since I don't have a face mask with me here and
I lock the phone and then I lift my phone up to unlock I can just slide up
and it will immediately go to the passcode if I take the mask off I can
slide up again and then it will check my face and unlock so that gives you an
idea of how it works it just makes it a little bit easier if you are wearing a
face mask to actually be able to use your phone without having to slide up
multiple times for the face unlock to fail multiple times so should be working
properly and make it a little bit easier now something I already noticed is mail
does not seem to be fixed in this particular update so I've been using
Edison mail on my iPhone 11 Pro max and as soon as I updated on my iPhone 10 R
it told me I had email I went into my email and there was nothing there and so
it wasn't updating properly I had to check it again
so Apple must still be working on this hopefully with iOS 14 they just
completely revamp it and fix it to begin with and make it better compared to what
it was with 13 and make it more like iOS 12 I'm not sure what the change was but
many people have been having issues with mail now one thing I noticed is on iPad
OS there is no tracing for this so if we go into settings and then we go to the
same settings here privacy we don't have health so you don't have the option for
contact tracing to turn it on or off so it's just not there but there's nothing
new other than that with iPad OS and the things I've already mentioned now as far
as battery it takes a few days to measure that as I've said before so you
can't measure by how quickly it drains from one hunt
to say 80% you have to actually measure it over a couple of days with normal
usage and I've been using iOS 13.4.5 beta two for the past
couple weeks and you may have noticed there was a weird bug there so far this
hasn't frozen I'll talk about performance in a moment but if we go
into battery and then we go to battery health you'll see I'm at 99% and like
I've said multiple times before battery health is not affected by an update the
update just simply checks for the battery health overall and so I'm still
at 99% after well over six months and I recently just switched to my iPhone se
so I could use that for the review so I've been using this today and you can
see that's why my battery usage is so low today and so if we take a look at
the past few days usage has not been phenomenal so you'll see I had 4 hours
and 3 minutes or 4 hours and 39 minutes rather and one hour and 9 minutes of
screen off time and I used almost 75% of my battery I've been saying on this
particular update I'm been I've been getting about 8 hours of screen on time
which isn't very good but on the previous versions I was getting 10 to 12
so this update needs some work it is a beta so I don't really count
that as anything to worry about you'll see that updated in the final version
and then we can test for sure now as far as performance other than that glitch I
just showed you I haven't seen anything although it's only been out a couple
hours so it's really hard to tell but again going into things like music
seemed to be fine scrolling is fine and if we take a look at the oldest device
here the iPhone 6s plus you'll see that it's fine as far as scrolling opening
different apps reloading RAM management will take a few days to know for sure
but I just wanted to give you an overall opinion it seems the same as far as
smoothness and performance now as far as the benchmarks or Geekbench scores I did
run them on all of these devices so let's take a look at that and I'm using
Geekbench 5 and on the iPhone 11 pro max it scored 1332 for single core and 3322
for multi-core if we take a look at the history let's take a look here so you
can see here is April 15th the last time we had an update and then today April
29th and so you can see we got a little bit lower score but it's so close
that it really shouldn't make any difference so expect it to perform the
same now let's take a look at all of these devices so you can get an idea how
your device is compared to these on the far left we have the iPad air 2 followed
by the iPhone 6s plus then the iPhone 10 R and then the iPhone 11 pro max so this
should give you a general idea of how all of these devices should perform if
you've run a Geekbench test on your devices as well as long as you're in
this general area they should be performing fine so that's it for iOS 13.5
beta 3 it's kind of strange that they change the name but here we have it
and I would expect a public release on Friday May 1st
according to Apple there will be a public release with contact tracing in
it and we should see that and whether or not that's iOS 13.4.2 or iOS 13.4.5
is really hard to say but basically developers can use
13.5 to develop their app and then get that ready though they'll
be pushing it to an inversion such as 13.4.2 it's all
kind of confusing right now but in June expect iOS 14 where they'll show off
some new features and I wouldn't expect anything major until then so that's it
for this particular update now if you'd like to get your hands on this wallpaper
