CTOnews.com, July 11 (Xinhua)-- Apple today launched a developer preview version of iOS / iPadOS 16.6 Beta 5 update (build number: 20G5070a) to iPhone and iPad users, 12 days after the last release.

Registered developers can open the settings application, jump to "system updates", click the "beta update" option and open the iOS 16 developer beta to choose to join the beta. CTOnews.com Note: the Apple ID associated with the developer account is required to download and install the beta.

IOS / iPadOS 16.6 is expected to have six Beta versions updated, and the official version is expected to be released this month.

This version is unlikely to include any new user interface features, which are concentrated in iOS 17, and the official version is expected to be released in September. In addition, iOS 17 will no longer support iPhone X, iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus, which means that iOS 16 will be the last update for these phones.

However, Apple will continue to provide security updates for hardware running older versions of iOS for several years.
