We finally got iOS 13 and iPadOS 13 Developer Beta 3 after so much confusion whether it will be released on the 2nd of July, 2019 or the 8th of July, 2019. Sadly, the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus users did not receive this update.
An update comes with a significant amount of features and changes so they are as follows:
1. 3D Touch: 3D Touch is not fully back but it’s back in some sectors in the Messages App. When you 3D Touch on an image in a chat, 3D Touch works but the same cannot be said for links in iMessage.
2. Control Centre:
a) Volume: When you 3D Touch or Haptic Touch on the Volume Platter, you will notice that the volume icon is now much more bolder and you will also notice that the iPhone icon or Airpods icon or the icon of any other device connected to the iPhone for audio, has shrunk.
