CTOnews.com, January 12 (Xinhua)-- Apple today released the second Public Beta update of iOS / iPadOS 16.3 for public testers. Apple typically releases a Public Beta update one day after releasing an update to the Beta version for developers. This update is 1 month away from the last Public Beta.

So far, updates to iOS 16.3 and iPadOS 16.3 seem to be smaller than iOS 16.2 and iPadOS 16.2 versions. The software adds support for physical security keys to add an additional layer of protection for Apple ID. With this feature, when logging in to Apple ID on iCloud or a new device, you can use the security key of physical FIDO authentication instead of device authentication.

This update also simplifies the process of transferring songs between iPhone and HomePod. CTOnews.com checked Apple's official support documentation and hasn't found any other major changes in the beta.
