Apple today started rolling out the sixth public beta of iOS 10, the next version of its mobile operating system. The release comes four days after Apple released the fifth public beta, making it the shortest gap so far between public beta releases for iOS 10.
Apple first unveiled iOS 10 at its WWDC conference in June and introduced the initial public beta last month. Apple has not been explicit about what’s changing in these public beta updates, but generally they come with bug fixes and new features.
