- Business Chat for iMessage in beta
- Health Records in Health app
- Εστίαση στα μουσικά βίντεο στο Apple Music
- HomeKit software authentication without chip certification

Η Apple επίσης υποσχέθηκε και νέα χαρακτηριστικά για την διαχείριση της μπαταρίας – Στην πρώτη αυτή beta δεν είναι διαθέσιμα ακόμη.
🚨 Messages in the Cloud εκ νέου έγιναν διαθέσιμα 🚨
Ακολουθεί το συνοδευτικό κείμενο της έκδοσης αυτής:
NOTES AND KNOWN ISSUES
3rd Party Apps
New Issues
- Skype may crash on launch or after sign-in. (36501124)
ARKit
Resolved Issues
- Continuing from a breakpoint while debugging an ARSession no longer results in VIO breaking. Visual objects placed in the world/anchor are now visible. (31561202)
Foundation
Known Issues
- Clients of NSURLSessionStreamTask that use a non-secure connection fail to connect when an error occurs during PAC file evaluation and the system is configured for either Web Proxy Auto Discovery (WPAD) or Proxy Automatic Configuration (PAC).

Workaround: Use startSecureConnection to establish a secure connection. Health
New Issues
