In a rare movement, Apple is simultaneously testing iOS 18 and iOS 18.1. The latter is only available for iPhone 15 Pro users and offers Apple Intelligence features. That said, the company has finally seeded iOS 18.1 beta 3 as it improves the company's AI platform. With the previous beta, Apple added the "Thanos snap feature." Actually called “Distraction Control,” it’s available in the Reader toggle in Safari and lets you hide distracting items, such as cookie pop-ups and other parts of the website. Apple says this doesn’t work as an ad blocker, but it helps hide distractful items from a page. Based on user feedback, Cupertino has also removed the Carousel from the Photos app and tweaked the “All Photos” section, with more images appearing on the photos grid. The “Recent Days” tab also includes “Recently Saved.” Besides that, iOS 18.1 beta 3 continues to improve Apple Intelligence features. These are some of the functions available with this beta: Writing Tools: Users can rewrite, proofread, and summarize text nearly everywhere they write, including Mail, Notes, Pages, and third-party apps Improved Siri: With a new design, Siri can maintain context between requests. Even if you stumble over words or shift what you’re saying mid-sentence, Siri can understand what you actually want. Priority notifications: They appear at the top of the stack, letting you know what to pay attention to at a glance. Notifications are summarized, so you can scan them faster. Priority messages in Mail: Elevate time-sensitive messages to the top of your inbox, like an invitation that has a deadline today or a check-in reminder for your flight this afternoon. Reduce interruptions: With iOS 18.1 beta 1, an all-new Focus Mode understands the content of your notifications and shows you the ones that might need immediate attention, like a text about picking up your child from daycare later today. Email summarization: Tap to reveal a summary of a long email in the Mail app and cut to the chase. Record and transcribe calls in the Notes app: Just hit record in the Notes or Phone apps to capture audio recordings and transcripts. Apple Intelligence generates summaries of your transcripts, so you can get to the most important information at a glance. Smart Reply in Mail: Quickly draft an email response with all the right details. Apple Intelligence can identify the question you were asked in an email and offer relevant selections to include in your response. BGR will let you know once we learn more about what’s new with iOS 18.1 beta 3. Alongside this version, Apple is also releasing the second beta version of iPadOS 18.1 and macOS Sequoia 15.1 to developers.

A week after seeding iOS 18 beta 7 to developers, Apple is now publishing beta 8. This is likely the last beta version of iOS 18 before its Release Candidate build, expected by the time Cupertino introduces the iPhone 16. That being said, this version likely only polishes the previous testing version, as Bloomberg's Mark Gurman noted last week that beta 7 was final for iPhone users. Unlike other years, Apple has pushed its main Apple Intelligence platform to iOS 18.1, which means the version that most people will get in a few weeks won't have one of the most-anticipated features of the year. With iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 beta 8, Apple is tweaking the Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Control Center. Now, apps can be organized in any way, which means they can be placed anywhere. App icons and widgets can take on a new look with a dark or tinted effect, and users can make apps appear larger to create the perfect experience for them. In the Lock Screen, it’s possible to choose new widgets instead of the Flashlight and Camera options. iOS 18 beta 8 keeps tweaking the Messages app with its powerful new features, including all-new text effects, personalized messages, tapbacks with any emoji, and scheduled messages. Users can also experience the new Passwords app. Built on the foundation of Keychain, the new Passwords app makes it easy for users to access their passwords, passkeys, Wi-Fi passwords, and verification codes.  Lastly, Apple has released new features that let users lock and hide apps. When an app is locked or hidden, content like messages or emails inside the app is hidden from search, notifications, and other places across the system. Users can only unlock it with Face ID and Touch ID. BGR teaches you how to hide and lock iPhone apps in iOS 18. Alongside iOS 18 beta 8, Apple is also releasing the eighth testing versions of iPadOS 18, watchOS 11, macOS Sequoia, tvOS 18, and visionOS 2.

As the testing cycle follows, Apple keeps improving Apple Intelligence with macOS 15.1 beta 3.

macOS Sequoia release date is just around the corner. While Apple Silicon Mac users can try Apple Intelligence with macOS 15.1, Apple is also seeding beta 8 of macOS 15 for Intel Macs (or Apple Silicon Macs if you don’t want to try AI just yet). With this testing version, Apple continues to prepare the official version of this system for later this fall. These are some of the features users can expect to have once the final build is available. For Safari, macOS Sequoia beta 8 brings the long-awaited iPhone Mirroring feature, which was unavailable with the first beta. This Continuity function allows users to fully access and engage with their iPhone right from their Mac. Apple says that a user’s custom wallpaper and icons appear just like on their iPhone, and they can swipe between pages on their Home Screen or launch and browse any of their favorite apps. The keyboard, trackpad, and mouse on Mac also let users interact with their iPhone, and audio even comes through. In addition, macOS Sequoia beta 8 brings the following features to Safari: Highlights: That’s an easier way to discover information on the web, such as directions, summaries, or quick links to learn more about people, music, movies, and TV shows; Reader: A redesigned Reader includes even more ways to enjoy articles without distractions, featuring a streamlined view of the article a user is reading, a summary, and a table of contents for longer articles; Video detection: When Safari detects a video on the page, Viewer helps users put it front and center while still giving them full access to system playback controls, including Picture in Picture. With a new Passwords app, Apple wants to make it easy for users to access their passwords, passkeys, Wi-Fi passwords, and verification codes. During the beta test, Apple also added new wallpapers for macOS. macOS Sequoia beta 8 also adds: Messages have received major updates to improve users’ expression and stay connected. These include all-new text effects, emoji and sticker Tapbacks, and the ability to schedule messages to be sent later. Apple Maps introduces even more ways to explore the world, including curated hikes and custom walking routes. Beginning this fall, users can browse thousands of hikes across all 63 national parks in the United States, filtered by length, elevation, and route type, and save them to use while offline. Photos now surface Collections, which automatically organizes a user’s library by helpful themes. The search feature has also been updated so users can get results quickly. Note-taking in Notes is getting smarter, making it easier than ever to take detailed and well-written notes. New audio transcription and summarization features with Apple Intelligence enable a device to take notes for the user, letting them stay present in a situation where they need to capture details about what’s happening. And if they need to quickly crunch a number, they can just type in an equation to have it solved automatically in their note body. Calendar shows events and tasks from Reminders, making it easy to see, edit, or complete tasks throughout the day. An updated Month View makes it easier to see events and reminders for an entire month at a glance. Wallpapers: There are new Sequoia wallpapers. Alongside macOS Sequoia beta 8, Apple released the eighth testing versions of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, tvOS 18, watchOS 11, and visionOS 2.

Following the beta release of Apple Intelligence for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS Sequoia, Apple keeps the regular testing cycle of tvOS 18 with beta 8. As the official release nears, we’re still expecting Cupertino to add the new TV and Movies screensavers announced during the WWDC 2024 keynote. However, there are some features tvOS 18 beta testers have been trying. Within the Apple TV app, Apple is adding three new features that will make everyday usage way better when enjoying Apple TV+ content: InSight: An Amazon Prime Video-like feature that displays timely information about actors, characters, and music from Apple TV+ movies and shows onscreen in real-time. Users can select an actor to view their background and filmography page or quickly view the song that is playing in a scene and add it to an Apple Music playlist. Enhance Dialogue: This feature is getting smarter, leveraging machine learning and computation audio to deliver greater vocal clarity over music, action, and background noise on Apple TV 4K. In addition to HomePod speakers, users can now enjoy Enhance Dialogue when listening through built-in TV or HDMI-connected speakers, AirPods, and other Bluetooth-connected devices, and when playing supported content on iPhone and iPad; Automatic subtitles: Subtitles now automatically appear at just the right moments with tvOS 18, including when the language in a show or film does not match the device language when users mute, or when they skip back while watching something. For those who prefer connecting an Apple TV 4K to a projector, tvOS 18 beta 6 brings one of its best features yet: 21:9 support for playing movies and shows. tvOS 18 also adds: Apple Fitness+: A redesigned interface helps users make the most of the library and explore the exercises they like the most; FaceTime with Continuity Camera: Apple adds Live Captions for English in the US and Canada, so users can read what others are saying on a FaceTime call from the TV tvOS 18 has even more features in store. Alongside its beta 8, Apple also seeded the eighth testing version of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS Sequoia, watchOS 11, and visionOS 2.
