Apple releases 3rd beta of iOS 7 to developers


Apple Inc. has released to developers the third beta of its upcoming iOS operating system for mobile devices such as the iPhone and iPad.

The latest beta includes performance improvements and fixes for problems including issues with Messages, iCloud and AirPlay apps, tech site CNET reported.

“The user interface received a few tweaks as well, including more transparent folders, redesigned music controls, and the calendar now shows which days you have events on. The update also brought with it enhancements to FaceTime and a better Siri voice,” CNET said.

It said the latest beta came two weeks after the second beta of iOS 7.

CNET also said it is “standard practice” for Apple to release several beta versions of software before it rolls it out to the public.

Apple had four beta versions for iOS 6, it noted.

“So we can expect at least one more beta to arrive for iOS 7,” CNET said. — TJD, GMA News
