Well, that was Quick. Apple released iOS 13 Developer Beta 2 and iPadOS 13 Developer Beta 2 in exactly two weeks after the First Beta. The build number for this Beta is 17A5508m.In the initial Beta Stages of major iOS versions, Apple releases a Beta every two weeks and when it is nearing it’s final release, Apple releases updates every week. It seems and feels like we just had WWDC 2019 a few days back experiencing a bunch of new softwares.
We’re going to see something go and something comeback with Beta 2.
iOS 13 Beta 1 had a bug in which in place of 3D Touch , Haptic Touch was being used on all the devices supported iOS 13. 3D Touch is coming back in Beta 2, as claimed by Criag Federighi in his email reply to Don.
