Just five days after Apple released iOS 15 beta 2, the first iOS 15 public beta is now available. If you haven’t already, you can sign up for the Apple Beta Software Program for free on the company’s website. Once you’re enrolled, you can download public beta releases on all of your compatible devices, including iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and Apple Watch models.
First of all, we should point out that all of the devices that were supported by iOS 14 will be supported by iOS 15 as well, so if you were able to update to iOS 14, you’re in the clear for at least one more year, even if you’re still using an iPhone 6s Plus, an iPad Air 2, or an iPad mini 4.
As for new features, iOS 15 upgrades FaceTime with spatial audio, a grid view, Portrait Mode, and SharePlay to share music, movies, and more during video calls. The new Focus feature lets you make custom modes to decide which notifications you see depending on what time it is and where you are, Live Text can recognize text and let you select it, Memory Mixes let you edit custom Memories in the Photos app, and a few apps are getting significant redesigns, like Maps and Weather.
