hi everyone Aaron here for Zolo Tech and today Apple released iOS 13.6
developer beta 2 this was a bit of a surprise since iOS 13.5.5
was the last beta but Apple has again renamed their beta to now 13.6
developer beta 2 now this is out to all developers and soon to public beta
testers it could be out by the time you're watching this video but if it's
not today it will be later tomorrow most likely now this came in at 336.6
megabytes on my iPhone 11 pro max it was anywhere from a hundred and fifty
megabytes on the iPad air 2 to the iPhone 6s plus which was about a hundred
and fifty megabytes as well now let's take a look at the build number the
build number is 17 G 5 0 4 5 C and this particular update like I said was a
little bit of a surprise but is a couple builds away from probably the last or
final build where it will be released to the public so we'll talk more about when
we should expect this to be released a little bit later but also Apple released
TV OS 13.4.8 beta as well as Mac OS 10.15.6
beta 2 this particular update also has no modem update so if you're having
issues with LTE or Wi-Fi that should be no different than the previous builds
now in this particular build the notes did add a couple new features or at
least they mentioned one and they've resolved another so we'll talk about the
features in just a second but the first thing is they resolved an issue where
the home screen web apps support data uses URLs as expected so this issue is
fixed if you were having issue with the home screen web apps maybe that you have
to go to a web app link and it wasn't working properly that should be fixed
now now as far as new features there are a couple things in this so one of them
it's very minor but if you go into your settings like you were checking for a
software update if you go to software update you now can go to customize
automatic updates and you also have a couple options now so if I turn this on
to download iOS updates it will install them automatically if I turn this switch
on so to give you an idea what it looked like before if you're not familiar with
that if I bring in the iPhone 10 R you'll see that under
automatic updates you just had a toggle for on and off now you have a toggle to
download it or install it or turn off both so that's a nice little feature
that they've added there and it's just something new I keep them both off
because I like to check them manually now they did add something else new in
health so if we go into the health app and I think I put it in here
there we go in the health app you'll see here's my summary but we go to browse we
have a new section now and the new section is called symptoms and so if you
use this to track things anything from hearing I use that with my Apple watch
to measure decibels in the room to see how loud it was you'll see in the past
12 months there was a noise notification well if you use it for how you're
feeling with respiratory or maybe sleep now you have symptoms so it's got
everything from acne to bloating to chills congestion heartburn loss of
smell and this is to help you remember what was going on in the past maybe keep
it for future records and you can use this you don't have to use it of course
and it's not in previous builds you know as you can see on the iPhone 10 are
symptoms isn't there on the previous version of iOS 13.5.1
so this is something exclusive to 13.6 and you can see
symptoms are there so if we go into chills for example we can pick the day
and then talk about the symptoms and things like that so we can add data we
add data and we can say present mild moderate or severe chills when it
started and when it ended so if you want to keep track of all those things or
maybe a doctor asked you to do that same with heartburn again the same thing
present mild moderate severe and your time and date and it explains each one
of them so nausea again it explains what it is you can add it to favorites show
all data if you have data and of course it tells you about data access as well
so you can allow zero access you can allow some access to research studies
and or none at all it's all up to you so that's something that's completely new
in this particular update now there is nothing else new as far as features and
I would expect that's because iOS 14 is right around the core
we'll talk more about that in a moment but let's take a look at the battery
life that I had on the previous beta because some people are saying it's
great others are saying it's not and I currently have 98 percent battery health
and my battery health has stayed that way for well more than six months at
this point so that's pretty good now we'll take a look at the last 10 days
maybe yesterday was 3 hours 3 hours I used my phone
some of the time and then I use an iPad or a Mac but for example here's 2 hours
and 48 minutes of screen on time 1 hour and 17 minutes of screen off time and as
you can see here I'm using less than 50% of my battery life if you combine all of
this time together you're going to get about 10 to 12 hours of screen on time
on the 11pro max it can vary depending on the device now in the little time
that I've used this performance seems to be pretty good I haven't had any
complaints so far I haven't seen a single lockup and I would expect that to
be pretty good with this beta and I'll show you the benchmarks in a moment now
as far as performance on the iPhone 6s plus which is one of the older devices I
did open minecraft it's sort of a benchmark that I use to see how it is in
general wait for it to load here and we're in so it resumed no problems here
and it seems to be working well so if we walk along you'll see that the frame
rates are pretty decent no issues and it loads and resumes fast now I know some
people were having issues with RAM management I would expect that to be
pretty good here but only time will tell most people are not complaining about it
at all with 13.5.1 or the betas now with iPad OS
there's not really anything new as well you've got the same exact features that
I mentioned already so again if I go into settings general software update
you'll see that we have the same features as well so there's nothing new
specific to the iPad but it does gain the same features and should have
similar performance as we're having on this update now let's take a look at the
Geekbench scores now I'm using Geekbench 5 and I actually ran it a couple times
because at first I got pretty low numbers and usually after it's done
doing things in the background it will speed up so you'll see I have 1,000
327 for single-core 3356 for multi-core that's pretty good considering what we
had before so if we take a look at the history and we scroll down to June 9th
and there's June 1st so this should give you an idea we're very close as far as
the single core first multi-core were a little bit higher on both this time
around so that's a pretty good sign but in general expect similar results on all
of these different devices compared to what you had before now let's take a
look at all of them so you can compare your devices with what I have now on the
Left I have the iPad air 2 then we have the iPhone 6s plus and then the iPhone
11 pro max so this should give you a general idea of how it should be
performing and if it's pretty low try it a little bit later and it will probably
bump up to where you would expect it or even better now as far as iOS 13.6
is release date well I would give that a few more weeks in fact we should see iOS
14 on the 22nd with iOS 14 beta 1 being released to developers and that's if
Apple continues to do what they've done in the past so expect it on even the
iPhone 6s plus or 6s from what people are saying but we'll have to wait and
see if that holds true now also expect iOS 13.6 maybe sometime in July
usually Apple will go through a few versions of it and then come out with a
final one and they'll continue to develop iOS 13.6 until iOS 14 is
released in the fall or autumn so expect iOS 14 maybe around September or October
depending on when the iPhone 12 launches so that's it with this particular update
