Apple Seeds iOS 7 Beta 2 to Developers with iPad and iPad Mini Support

Apple pushed out the new platform release with various bug fixes and improvements packed inside, though only for devices meant for the beta software development.

That certainly is quick of apple to release iOS 7 beta update 2 to developers, just weeks after WWDC 2013 and the release of the first iOS 7 beta, Apple updates the OS with bug fixes, improvements as well as support for iPad.

If you’re an Apple developer, I’m sure you would’ve already gotten your update and you’re happily testing away the latest iOS 7 update but if you’re not and you don’t intend installing a buggy software onto your iOS device.

Furthermore, the platform upgrade brings along the English versions of the male and female Siri voices that Apple showcased at WWDC.Compared to the beta 1 release, the new platform version sports various performance enhancements for Siri, which is now much faster than before. Brand new Voice Memos app that appears in the home screen on iOS 7.

Voice Memos, as its name suggest, is an app that allows you to record voice  memos. Like most recording app, just tap the big red button to start recording, the sounds recorded are indicated using a wavelength chart. Voice clips in the Voice Memos app are editable and users can send them via message, mail, AirDrop or on to iCloud.

I hope the improvements and bug fixes makes iOS 7 a whole lot more stable, I have lost count of the number of times my iPhone hung on me just by running simple default apps – camera and phone.

Those who would like to download iOS 7 beta 2 should head over to Apple’s developer portal for that. They will need a paid registered Apple developer account to receive access to the platform.
