hi everyone Aaron here for ZolloTech and today Apple released iOS 13 developer
beta 2 this is available now over-the-air with a beta profile so you
install the profile like you would before and then check for a software
update and install it if you had beta 1 on your device it'll be about 691 point
5 megabytes give or take a few megabytes if you had not had iOS 13 previously
installed it will be 4 gigabytes or more it's usually a really large install the
first time so just keep that in mind the public beta will not be available until
July according to Apple they announced that their keynote so if you're waiting
for the public beta you'll have to wait a few more weeks for that they didn't
say when in July either now this particular beta has a new build
number let's take a look at that the build is 17 a 5 5 0 8 M and this
particular build brings quite a few little changes in tweaks and also speeds
everything up and we'll talk about battery life as well in a little bit now
the first major change has to do with haptic touch in fact haptic touch seems
to be replacing 3d touch on 3d touch devices in iOS 13 beta 2 on the iPhone
XR it looks like all the icons now have haptic touch just like they would
if it was a 3d touch device so tap and hold on Twitter you get all of the same
things music all of the same features including notifications as well have the
haptic touch enabled so that works on all the devices you feel it on the
iPhone XR but on devices like the S II it works as well so it works on all the
same apps if we go to whether it works the exact same way so that's really nice
now one little tweak that they've added is this little icon here so if you use
the voice-over feature that's in settings under accessibility if you're
using this voice control feature to control your device when you have it on
that little icon is enabled if you go in turn it off takes a moment there we go
now the little icon is not there anymore and that feature is really making that
phone's battery drained very fast and it's quite warm so if you're gonna use
voice control just be aware of that now before I talk about all the other chain
changes and fixes and things like that Apple has put out a warning for watch LS
if you're going to install the beta or you have beta one before you update to
beta 2 they said make sure you have iOS 13 beta 2 installed on your iPhone then
you can update your watch if you don't do it in that order you may have a
problem they have a big important notice on their notes so keep that in mind now
there are many resolved issues there's 73 or more resolved issues and that
includes things like the SMB connection network so if we go into the files app
now in the files app if you tap the three dots here you can connect to a
server so if you want to connect to a server it's now available to connect to
an SMB server and that should work just fine it also supports a PFS as well so
keep that in mind so if you're using that file system you'll be all set one
tweak they've changed as well as in the control center where you used to have to
Center press on the 3d touch or Center press the little icon here so that you
can get into your different Wi-Fi connections you no longer have to do
that now you can just 3d touch on the little Wi-Fi symbol or the Bluetooth
symbol as well to get into this so before it was a little bit harder to do
you had to press right in the center now you can just touch anywhere and it works
just fine so that part's been fixed now they've also updated mail a little bit
so if you have mail on here and you're using the Apple Mail app let's go into
that under the mail app if we go to edit we can select all for some people this
wasn't there or working with beta one it's back and you can select all in all
of your different inboxes as well so if you have a bunch of different inboxes
you can just delete everything if you want to so that part's really nice now
there are 73 plus resolved issues but there are also 100 plus known issues so
for example for a period of time after updating to iOS or iPad OS 13 betas
tapping links might cause the apps to become unresponsive wallpapers may not
display correctly using files in schoolwork isn't supported and on and on
and on so keep that in mind before you update just as a little warning if you
need some of those features some things may not work but Apple will continue to
work on this now in wallpaper there's a couple little tweaks and let's go in
there there's no new new wallpaper but if we go into wallpaper he
here and under a wallpaper when you're choosing one you've got this dark
appearance dims wallpaper now we had this before but I didn't show it off so
if we turn that on what happens is it dims and kind of keeps it darker so
you'll see some of these blue lines in here or darker if I turn it back on it
just lightens everything up and keeps the dock different as well so it's hard
to see going back and forth but I think you get the idea so you can change it on
your own custom wallpaper so that part's really nice also when you set a
wallpaper so we'll select a wallpaper when you select a wallpaper and here you
now have the option to turn on or off the parallax effect so that's the
movement effect when you move the phone side-to-side and everything moves you
can just turn it off right there so that part's nice as well now for sama I
haven't seen this myself but in calendar apparently it has some UI changes it
looks the same to me but I went in and checked everything and it looks the same
I looked between beta one as well I don't see the tweaks but for some you
may have that now there's also new memo G stickers so let's take a look at those
now under momochi stickers if we go in here the ones the Apple creates for you
now we now have fingers crossed right here
we also have a shush we also have thinking and there may be a couple new
ones as well but that's what I was able to find and they'll continue to update
this over time now within messages there's some new sounds as far as tap
backs go although I haven't been able to reproduce this some have so if you
double tap here and do a tap back some people are actually hearing different
sounds for each one of those tap backs I wasn't able to reproduce this they all
sound the same still but you may have different sounds for those different tap
backs and then another new feature is when you adjust the volume in certain
areas of the OS if I adjust the volume up and down the ringer volume here will
show in the top where you have the same thing when you turn it to silent so
you've got silent on and off and then if I unsilent it and then use ringer up and
down volume it shows at the top now so that's a nice little change as well now
there's some new settings in the camera so if we go in the camera under
portrait we now have a couple new options so if we go all the way to the
end we now have high key light mono so
you'll see that here if I put the iPhone se in the background you can see it's
just kind of a a mono look and it looks it looks pretty good but if we go back
to say studio light and then we tap this little button up here we now can adjust
the intensity of the studio light so we can go back or forth and it will adjust
the lighting in real time on the different image it's pretty subtle but
you can adjust it and I'm sure it looks a little bit better on faces Apple
showed this off in their keynote but we haven't seen it until beta 2 so that's
nice that they've added that now apparently this feature only works with
iPhone X and newer maybe the eight plus and newer but not in the older phones
the first time you go into the home app you're now going to get some new splash
screens that say home pod can now recognize multiple voices hit continue
then you'll get some information about personal requests and using messages and
things through the home pod and then also you'll get add your profile to
Apple TV so you can create different profiles based on your voice and you can
add them to your Apple TV as well and then one more you can update to the
latest Apple TV software and it just let you know it must be updated in order for
this to work let's hit continue and that's new in
home there's not a whole lot more going on in the home app though now there's
some new options under settings so if we go into settings and then under settings
if we go down to Safari here under Safari we now have a show link previews
so that's new so they'll show previews two links if you want that enabled
pretty simple and straightforward then we have some new options for notes as
well so if we go into notes and if you have separate languages enabled it will
now show preferred language so under here you can select the language and as
long as you have one other language selected you can go in here and select
all of these different languages under notes as well although there are some
bugs with languages right now and they may not work properly
now aside from that under notes there's also another change here we're sort
checked items so sort checked items to manually or automatic
so that's a new setting as well now other than that there is not a whole lot
more going on in here although I did find a change on the iPad and also with
voicemail so I'll show you voicemail and then the iPad change so if we go into
phone and this is actually a spam voicemail but you'll see the buttons
have changed down here at the bottom so we have some new buttons instead of that
little tiny word that said speaker we now have speakerphone and delete so
that's really nice now on the iPad let me show you that now on the iPad pretty
much everything's the same that I've gone over with iOS 13 but on iPad OS
with the widgets here on the side you can now pin widgets so if I pull down to
swipe everything off the pinned widget stays so swipe it back on scroll to the
bottom and go to edit we can now pin our favorite widgets so maybe we want to pin
the calendar or well let's pin something different like shortcuts we'll slide it
up here and then we'll hit done and now if I scroll down shortcuts is now pinned
as well and there may be more changes to the iPad and I'll cover those in a
separate video if I find a bunch of them now as far as battery life battery life
on beta 1 was great to begin with and then it got pretty poor after that so
we'll wait for this to load and you'll see over the last 10 days battery I've
been using it this particular device for the past few days but battery has been
about 4 or 5 hours of screen on time with not much battery left so at the
beginning it was great and then it wasn't so hopefully this bait is a
little bit better performance is really good so far everything's smooth but on
the iPad it seems to be very buggy so I've had some issues with that but other
than that it seems pretty solid now as far as scrolling and opening apps and
things what's weird is that sometimes 3d touch doesn't work here because it's not
really 3d touch anymore it's not pressure-sensitive it's a press and hold
so they've kind of done away with that which is kind of sad now the other thing
too is it seems pretty good but I still would not recommend installing a beta it
can be really buggy over time and it's just something I wouldn't really
recommend until the public beta is out usually it's pretty stable by that point
if you don't mind dealing with bugs then go ahead and install it otherwise I
would avoid it for now now of course quite a few of you want to see a
geek bench score I'll just run it on the XS Max for now to see what it's like
and then we'll wrap this up Geekbench completed in the single core score was
4811 multi-core was ten thousand nine hundred and sixty seven this is actually
a little bit lower than the previous one that was on iOS 13 so that doesn't
really mean a whole lot this could speed up over time but
performance feels much faster than the previous beta so that's it for this
particular one of course I'll link this wallpaper in the description as I always
