Apple has released iOS 13.1 beta 3 and iPadOS 13.1 beta 3 to developers for testing. The build number is 17A5837a.
This version is intended exclusively for software developers to test their apps and start adopting the new technologies in iOS. Make sure to back up your device and install only on systems you are prepared to erase if necessary.
The iOS 13.1 update brings back Shortcuts Automations and Share ETA in Maps. There's also improved mouse support, HEVC video encoding with alpha channels, and tweaks to various dynamic wallpapers and icons.
Developers can download the iOS 13.1 beta from the link below. Apple also released the GM Seed of iOS 13 today. Please follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates.
Wait a minute, mouse support for a 5” to 6” screen but no Apple Pencil for detailed artistic renderings. Does this make sense to anyone besides marketing geniuses like Cook?
I can see it now: “Hold on, I’m sending you a message, but first I’ve got to pull my USB mouse out of my pocket and unravel the cord.”
Boss: “Is that a mouse in your pocket, or are you just kinda happy to see me?”
