News: Apple Just Released iOS 12.2 Developer Beta 4 for iPhone, Includes New Icons, Updated About Page & More

Apple released iOS 12.2 beta 4 to developers on Monday, March 4, and that means public beta testers will likely get the update on Tuesday. The update features a fresh "News" app icon, a new "Apple TV Remote" tile in Control Center, and a tweaked "About" page, in addition to seemingly under-the-hood updates. If you're not yet on the beta, now's your chance to see it for yourself.The updates in beta 4 may be minor, but they're a step in the right direction. The Apple News icon looks more like the one we seen in a previous beta directly in the app, so it only makes sense it would change on the outside too. The new Apple TV Remote icon is now just a remote image instead of an Apple TV icon, which indicates you'll be able to use it with third-party TV sets with AirPlay 2 support. It also appears in the updated now playing tiles in Siri, Control Center, and lock screen, alongside new volume icons.Update: Apple Released iOS 12.2 Beta 5, Includes Tiny UI Tweaks You will also see an updated About page that groups together storage information. Apple already tweaked the layout for the About page, but it continues to make the information more organized.We know that beta 4 likely introduces new under-the-hood bug fixes, as all beta updates usually do, to create a more stable version of the software that came before. Because there are no major updates this time around, Apple is likely using this update as an opportunity to solely address stability within 12.2. The release notes are identical to beta 3. Every known issue, resolved issue, and new feature from iOS 12.2 beta 3 appear in beta 4's release notes, with no new additions of any kind. That doesn't mean this software is identical, it just means any fixes or changes are too minor to list here.App Store - Promoting Your Subscriptions with New OffersStoreKit now supports subscription offers in addition to introductory offers, so apps with auto-renewable subscriptions will soon be able to provide a discounted price for a specific duration for existing and previously subscribed customers.

(46681836)To download and update your iPhone to iOS 12.2 dev beta 4, you will first need to be a registered developer with a valid configuration profile. If you have iOS 12's "Automatic Updates" enabled, you can let the software update overnight. To install right now, launch the Settings app, select "General," then "Software Update." Tap "Download and Install," then follow the on-screen prompts. Beta testers know that iOS 12.2 is going to be a substantial update over 12.1.4.

In fact, this list keeps evolving, as new versions of the 12.2 beta add more features and changes.
