After the release of iOS 16.0.3 with important bug fixes, Apple has released the fifth beta of iOS 16.1, a version that is expected to be available to all users at the end of this October.
iOS 16.1 Beta 5 is available now, along with iPadOS 16 Beta 12, tvOS 16.1 Beta 5, and macOS Ventura Beta 11. The only device left without Beta (for now) is the Apple Watch, which is still with Beta 4 although Beta. 5 should be released in the next few days This new version should be released with updates for iPad and Mac which, let’s remember, have not yet been updated to this year’s new versions. YesWe also hope that this software version will be accompanied by new devices, probably the iPad of 2022, which will probably debut with a design similar to the iPadAir, and the new MacBooks.
