Apple Seeded iOS 6.1 beta 2

The next major iOS 6 update is version 6.1. Although it has yet to have a final version, iOS 6.1 is still in its beta with version 2 being seeded just recently by Apple. While there are a few things new inside it, the iOS 6.1 update seems to be more of a performance update rather than one that introduces new features to the device. This is so that the iOS 6 can be more stable as a whole.

However, it doesn’t mean that there aren’t a few changes made to the iOS. For example, Panorama is now made available in iOS. In addition to that, you can also download individual songs through iTunes Match as well. Passbook on the other hand has a better welcome screen and a button has been introduced to reset your Advertising Identifier which is Apple’s answer of changing the use of Unique Device Identifier.

In version 1, we have seen that the Maps application have had better reporting feature, Siri can be used to purchase movie tickets via Fandango and a small tweak to the design of the music controls at the lock screen. We don’t think that iOS 6.1 will just stop at beta version 2. There should be a couple more updates to go before a final version is released.
