Wikimedia Commons/ImageApple has been so busy lately. Earlier this week, the company has officially launched the iOS 8.2 which is now available for public consumption. However, recent reports indicated that the Cupertino-based tech giant may be already working for yet another update of the mobile OS.
Christian Post Report – For those who missed it, Apple has been rolling out two test versions of the iOS 8.3 exclusively for licensed developers. Now, a report from GSM Arena indicated that the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus maker is also releasing the said iOS beta version to the general public.
Providing more details for the said mobile operating system release, the tech review site posted a guide for those non-developers who want to take part in the testing.
Participants must first go to their official Apple Seed website (see link here). For them to join, they have to sign in first to enroll at the beta program, which is free.
Entrants must be able to backup their devices to iTunes. After that, they can download the configuration profile from the Apple Seed site. By doing so, it allows the beta release to show up in their devices’ Software update section.
Rhe new iOS 8.3 beta has been primarily designed with the Apple Watch in mind. As an integral part for the latest iOS 8.2 release, the new OS sees the messaging settings getting a “conversation list filtering” option which can be found in the Messages app.
Users also now have the ability to report unwanted messages from unknown contacts through the “Report Junk” option.
