12.2 Beta 1 Released! 30+ Features/Changes! #Helpful Post

hey what's up guys and today you can

breathe a sigh of relief I was 12.2 is

finally here I was wondering when it

would drop in today Apple dropped 12.2

developer beta 1 so on first appearance

it doesn't appear that too much has

changed but actually digging through it

I was able to find it quite a bit that I

haven't seen mention anywhere it's a

strap in here are all the changes and

new features added to Iowa's 12.2

alright so to begin let's jump into the control center and over here screen

mirroring has a new icon so as you can

see that has been updated it looks a

nice in here as well it has been updated

so I've also noticed that any control

center the overall menus themselves have

become larger a little bit more compact

Apple has certainly been putting some

work into this I also noticed that the

play and backwards/forwards icons

they're all little bits condensed a

little bit smaller so Apple did work on

those as well something I haven't seen

mention anywhere is that there is a new

icon here for the airplay it's now a

darker shade of blue so once you do

select a speaker and jump back in as you

can see it's now filled in entirely in

the back so definitely easier to see

when that's clicked also when you click

on that the icon for the play/pause is

slightly rounded as you can see it's a

not as stiff as this one kind of looks

more in place here and also a new

behavior of noticed so once you have a

speaker selected the actual icon here

instead of being wavy and it's light

blue it's now a little bit of a darker

solid blue and it no longer ebbs and

flows like that also if we jump into the

Apple TV remote over here it has a full

screen interface now so before this is

what it looked like now it's a little

bit cleaner makes it more use of your

display here and it now supports airplay

to TVs so you can now control more TVs

through this remote here and that

functionality extends into the home app

you can actually control airplay to TVs

using your home app the functionality is

pretty basic right now just turn off the

TV turn it on but that's gonna be

expanded with more support of course in

the future now this change here I can't

reproduce myself a lot of people are

saying that their cellular icon toggle

has been replaced with the airdrop one

in the control center so if you have

that let me know which devices for down

below but I couldn't get it to work on

my 7 and I don't see it on any of the

newer devices now on the left is 12.2

and when you

search for a song now in Iowa's 12.2 and

you go into the results for the songs or

the artists you're gonna notice that

they're gonna appear much larger now so

the list has been made of less condensed

and I'm not sure I like this change I'd

like to be able to see more of the songs

right away instead of having to scroll

more and this has to be one of the

coolest changes to 12.2 hey Siri play

rumba from my music library so look at

that she now has an API for a custom

music player directly within Siri kids

that is awesome you can control your

music control the volume in here it's so

clean I absolutely love this but the

most pointless thing and I'm sure this

will be updated why why is this blocking

my input I literally cannot see where I

left the volume slider that is such an

oversight in general Apple get rid of

this bastard there's no reason as volume

HUD should exist this late into iOS

that's just embarrassing in the health

app there's an updated prompt for

improve health and activity they

rearranged some of the choices and

updated the description to be much

larger now and apples actually put some

considerable time into the wallet app so

they've updated several things for one

of the plus icon is now a solid black so

ties it a little bit more I guess also

there's new animations when selecting

the cards it flows a little bit smoother

not so abrupt but the animation itself

takes a little bit longer and also

recent transactions will appear like

this below the card so a friendlier way

to show those when you actually look

into that transaction there's a really

cool new interface shows you where it

was made very friendly all around now in

the maps settings there is a new option

here for air quality index so now on top

of the weather when you zoom into a

certain location in maps you'll also

notice the air quality index right here

right below it so it indicates it's

pretty good it's green right now I

assume it'll turn red in really bad

areas and also I haven't had this option

before for weather conditions in maps

it's new for me but it might not be a

new feature altogether also a user on

iOS beta shared this there's a new

category called films inside of the TV

application where previously there

wasn't now for users in Canada Apple has

finally made the news application

available I cannot believe it took this

long you guys can finally join the

civilized world

know what's going on now yeah that's a

joke but also in the settings for news

Apple removed an option and that's

always show the next up option it has

been removed I cannot see it here

anymore and 905 Mac is reporting that

any news application there are signs

that Apple is moving towards a

subscription package here so they're

gonna be making that available in the

future in the podcast settings scroll

down and I'm no longer able to see the

version number here so Apple has been

hiding nuts off of the apps in settings

you really can't tell if they've updated

that or not and check this out so now

when searching in Safari your searchers

also have this little icon right next to

them indicating it's ready to search

previously that was not available you

can see it's a blank here so a nice

little glyph change also Safari does now

loudly proclaim on the top if you're not

using a secure site so same website on

iOS tool point two on the Left it'll say

not secure up there in the search bar

and also Safari supports several new

features here in iOS 12.2 one of those

being a color picker so you'll now be

able to get this prompt right here with

this interface directly in Safari and

when choosing a color if a website

prompts it also in the Safari settings

there is a new option here for motion

and orientation access so if you want to

share that info I don't know why but if

an advertiser or website wants that

information you can give them access to

that if you want to it's the usefulness

of this that I'm not sure about is it

just for ads or websites gonna use this

in a creative and cool way I guess time

will tow and also a setting in the

Safari settings that I noticed was

removed is ask web sites not to track me

you can no longer enable that and I

assume that's because Apple made that

default so you no longer have to enable

that's they're just implementing it into

Safari but I'm not sure on that so if

anyone knows the answer why that

disappeared let me know also in these

Safari settings jumping into the

experimental features I noticed there

were a ton of new ones so Apple is

definitely working on Safari a lot with

this version they've removed some of the

options added new ones definitely

working on this though and also in the

accessibility settings jumping into a

voiceover here you'll notice the

description has been condensed and made

easier to read so now doesn't take up as

much room here and developer rambo notes

a developer change here that there's a

new private system framework on iOS 4.2

called cloud kit code

now I'm not even gonna pretend to know

what that means but I just wanted you to

be aware that this is a change and

here's another change I'm not too fond

of and that's in the control center so

when putting your device into airplane

mode and then actually kicking it out of

it you no longer get that cool animation

in the signal status bar it's just flat

it's not even looking for service here

now I'm not sure how applicable this is

to any of you guys but if your

corporation or job requires you install

a certificate you can now do so fully

for a route certificate on 12.2 and

there was a rumor that in Iowa's 12.2

Apple has been working on the Intel

modem issues so if you were having any

sort of signal issues in 12.1 point 3

which some users were apparently Apple

has been working on that and might fix

it with the final release so a couple of

things about Iowa's tool point 2 before

updating I had 10 gigabytes available

after eight point seven four so it

absorbed over a gigabyte just to install

I'm totally fine with that in the name

of improvements as long as you have the

storage just want you to be aware it

will take a little bit extra this time

around the overall update was almost

three gigabytes 2.8 so there are bound

to be more changes here when it's this

big I'm sure more will crop up but

overall that's what I could find in

Iowa's 12.2 and it's pretty big I guess

but it's a lot of smaller stuff Apple

come on how much do we have to beg to

get a dark mode how much do we have to

beg to get an always-on display just

basic things that I feel like the iPhone

would excel at there's no reason not to

have those features anyways I wanted to

take a look at the speed with a

Geekbench let's see how it compares to

the last version okay and here's that

Geekbench result so previously we had

11,000 on the multi a very high single

core score on twelve point one after

updating it did go down just a little

bit on the multi-core score but with the

final release of twelve point - I'm sure

that will recover this is a non-issue

okay guys there it is Iowa's twelve

point two beta one this is a pretty

significant release and with the other

betas I'm sure we're gonna see more

optimizations and changes so I'll keep

an eye out for all of that definitely my

favorite feature from this release has

to be the new player with Siri that can

play your music directly within the Siri

interface super cool update overall

though I hope you guys enjoy the video

stay tuned for the next one peace
