by Apple today released the second betas of iOS 16.2 and iPadOS 16.2 to developers for testing, with the update tweaking some features and fixing some bugs discovered in the first beta.
We have described all the changes found in the second betas of iOS 16.2 and iPadOS 16.2 in this article.
Fixed lock screen camera bug
Apple fixed an annoying bug that didn’t let you get out of the lock screen camera with a swipe. The swipe gesture has been re-enabled, so it is no longer necessary to lock the iPhone to get out of the camera interface if it is accessible from the lock screen.
5G connectivity in India
The second beta of iOS 16.2 adds 5G support in India for some carriers, including Airtel and Jio. Users in India running the beta and using supported carriers can connect to 5G networks.
Drugs Widget
The first beta of iOS 16.2 added a Sleep widget and the second beta added a Medicines widget. There are two options, one which is a unique pill icon and a second which lets you know when you need to take a medicine. It will notify you if all of your medications are saved or if you are out of medication for the day.
