We have already seen a number of videos of the new iOS 14 beta 5 software and now we have another one, this one is from EverythingApplePro.
The video below gives us a look at the fifth beta of Apple’s iOS 14, the software brings a range of new features to the iPhone and the iPad.
New Features in iOS 14 Beta 5
iOS 14 brings some new widgets and also a new home screen, plus a new App Library and much more. The new widgets can be resized and placed anywhere on the home screen, allowing for a more personalized and functional layout. The App Library automatically organizes all your apps into one simple, easy-to-navigate view, categorizing them based on usage and type.
Additionally, iOS 14 introduces a new feature called “Back Tap,” which allows users to double-tap or triple-tap the back of their iPhone to perform specific actions, such as taking a screenshot or launching an app. This accessibility feature is highly customizable and can be a game-changer for many users.
Another significant update is the introduction of Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode for iPhones. This feature allows users to continue watching a video or taking a FaceTime call while using other apps. The video window can be resized and moved around the screen, providing a seamless multitasking experience.
Performance Improvements and More
There are also a range of performance improvements and more. Apple has focused on enhancing the overall speed and responsiveness of the operating system. Apps launch faster, and the new compact UI for incoming calls and Siri interactions ensures that users are not interrupted while using their devices.
Privacy is another area where iOS 14 shines. The new software includes enhanced privacy features, such as indicators that show when an app is using the microphone or camera. Users can also share their approximate location with apps instead of their exact location, adding an extra layer of security.
Apple Maps has also received a significant update, with new cycling directions and curated guides to help users discover new places. The cycling directions take into account elevation, busy streets, and stairs, making it easier for cyclists to navigate their routes.
Apple are expected to release iOS 14 along with the new iPhone 12 handsets. We are expecting the iPhone 12 handsets to go on sale in October and the iPhone 12 in November. The devices are launching slightly later this year due to the COVID-19 outbreak. The pandemic has caused delays in production and supply chains, impacting the release schedule.
The new iPhone 12 lineup is rumored to include four models: the iPhone 12 Mini, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max. These devices are expected to feature OLED displays, 5G connectivity, and improved cameras. The Pro models may also include a LiDAR scanner for enhanced augmented reality (AR) experiences.
