Since Apple\u2019s iOS 10.0 was released to the public in September, it has been followed by a flurry of updates to address some issues in the operating system and meet the ever-changing needs of users. We already saw the official release of the iOS 10.1 in October, and now, there are already three beta versions of the iOS 10.2 making their way into developers and testers. So what\u2019s new in the iOS 10.2?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Video App that was made available throughout the US in the beta 2 has been removed and replaced with the TV App in the beta 3. This app has four major sections, namely:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shows all of your recently purchased TV shows and movies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Guarantees that you can continue watching movies and TV shows, as well as receive recommendations for new content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Offers iTunes content and allows you to subscribe to popular streaming services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Allows you to search for the exact content that you are looking for by showing trending movies and TV programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The TV App includes a new TV Widget that has the same features as the Netflix Widget. This makes it easier to jump from one program to another and keep track of what you are watching. There are also options in the \u201cSettings\u201d menu that let you choose the streaming quality over cellular data and Wi-Fi, and the mode to procure content in HD or SD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The iOS 10.2 comes with a handful of new flashy and stylish wallpapers, which are distinguished with a black background and floating orb in the middle. Sound familiar? It should, as they were used when Apple advertised the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. Anyway, these wallpapers will look really good on the new black iPhones by enhancing their wider color range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new SOS Feature was introduced in beta 2 to allow an iPhone or iPad to call emergency services when their power button is pressed 5 times. But in beta 3, this features has been removed for all countries except India, where it’s been widely rolled out for testing purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A great collection of new fancy emojis has been added in the first beta version of the iOS 10.2, including a \u201cshark\u201d, \u201ccroissant\u201d, \u201cclown\u201d, \u201cbutterfly\u201d, \u201cowl\u201d and \u201cavocado\u201d. Of course, there are also several professional emoji in both male and female genders, such as \u201cdoctor\u201d, \u201cmechanic\u201d, \u201cfirefighter\u201d, \u201clawyer\u201d and scientist. Apple has also redesigned several of the existing emoji to make them look realistic and modern by adding more detail to them. And for the first time, it includes all-time favorites, such as \u201cshrug\u201d and \u201cfingers crossed\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You will now have the \u201cPreserve Settings\u201d option to save your previous camera settings, allowing you to keep the last settings for Camera Mode, Live Photo or Photo Filter. With this, you can always jump straight into the last photo mode you had chosen, keep live photos turned on or off, or stick with the same filter preference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The iOS 10.2 includes a host of new features in its iMessages app, such as the \u201cSend with Love\u201d screen effect that sends your messages along with a heart. Of course, there are also bug fixes to stamp out some annoying glitches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apple has promised a December launch for several of the iOS 10.2 features, including the TV App. According to rumors, the update could be officially released in the early weeks of the month. As of the moment, the iOS 10.2 is being rolled out to registered developers through Apple\u2019s Beta Software Program. Hopefully, it will be released for public beta testers soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
