Ahead of WWDC 2023, Apple to roll out iOS 16.6 beta: Report
Apple will host the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) event on June 5 where it will announce iOS 17 among other products. Ahead of the event, the company is said to roll out iOS 16.6 beta update. According to a MacRumours report, Apple has ramped up internal testing of iOS 16.6 over the past week. Citing a reliable source of information, the report says that the first beta version of the update will be seeded to developers and public beta testers in the coming days.
The company has been internally testing the iOS 16.6 since April this year. The update is expected to be one of the final updates in the iOS 16 software cycle, ahead of iOS 17 announcement at WWDC next month. iOS 16.6 is likely to be a minor update with general fixes and changes.
Meanwhile, Apple has already announced that iOS 16.5 will be released to iPhone users this week. Beta testing of iOS 16.5 has been ongoing since the end of March. There have been two notable updates and features revealed for the iPhone thus far. The initial addition is a Sports tab integrated into the Apple News app, enabling users to conveniently access news, scores, and schedules related to their preferred teams and leagues.
The report states that the second update empowers users to commence screen recording through Siri. By simply saying “Hey Siri, start a screen recording,” users can capture a video of their iPhone’s screen and instruct Siri to cease recording when they wish.
Simultaneously, Apple has introduced its initial set of “rapid security” patches that are publicly accessible. These patches are specifically crafted to tackle security vulnerabilities that are actively being exploited or pose a substantial threat to customer privacy and safety.
Apple describes these patches, known as “Rapid Security Responses,” as crucial security enhancements delivered in between regular software updates.
