With an emphasis on personalization and machine learning, Apple is leading the industry with smartphone user experience and capabilities.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>iOS 16 is available now in the form of a Developer Beta. Any registered Apple Developer can try out the new OS now. Apple wants to ensure that devs will be able to check the compatibility of their apps and integrate new APIs before the OS makes its public launch this fall. There are known bugs and this is not meant to be a daily driver for your iPhone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometime this summer, Apple will make available a public beta of iOS 16 (if you\u2019re interested in getting in on that, register <a href=\"https:\/\/beta.apple.com\/sp\/betaprogram\">here<\/a>).\u00a0We&#8217;ve got instructions below that cover the public beta installation as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-which-devices-support-ios-16\">Which Devices Support iOS 16?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To get started with iOS you will need one of the following supported iPhones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>iPhone 8\u00a0<\/li><li>iPhone 8 Plus<\/li><li>iPhone X<\/li><li>iPhone XR<\/li><li>iPhone XS<\/li><li>iPhone XS Max<\/li><li>iPhone 11<\/li><li>iPhone 11 Pro<\/li><li>iPhone 11 Pro Max<\/li><li>iPhone 12<\/li><li>iPhone 12 mini<\/li><li>iPhone 12 Pro<\/li><li>iPhone 12 Pro Max<\/li><li>iPhone 13\u00a0<\/li><li>iPhone 13 mini<\/li><li>iPhone 13 Pro<\/li><li>iPhone 13 Pro Max<\/li><li>iPhone SE (2020, 2nd generation)<\/li><li>iPhone SE (2022, 3rd generation)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-beta-means-backing-up\">Beta Means Backing Up<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While it is always good practice to backup a device prior to upgrading to a new OS, this is especially the case with software currently in a beta state. Having an iCloud account is an easy way to ensure photos and documents on your mobile device are saved elsewhere. Backups can also be performed by copying phone data to a Mac or PC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-backup-an-iphone-on-a-mac\">How to Backup an iPhone on a

Apple\u2019s designers have included a large library of templates to choose from, as well as the ability to import pictures straight from the camera roll. The clock will automatically mask around subjects for a subtle depth effect. WatchOS inspired widgets are also available, and notifications subtly raise from the bottom of the screen.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-improved-focus-mode\">Improved Focus mode<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The new lock screen is also directly tied to Focus mode, an enhanced version of Do Not Disturb mode. Any Focus mode can provide its own lock screen with unique widgets, such as home and work profiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lock-screen-widgets-accessibility-and-more\">Lock screen widgets, accessibility, and more<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, more widgets will be inbound as there are new developer APIs pertaining to the lock screen. Some provided examples included ordering a Starbucks, tracking an Uber, controlling Apple Music, and a fitness tracker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Accessibility features are also front and center in this new release. Live Text has been greatly expanded to offer better in-picture searching, as well as the ability to translate printed text inside any frame of video. Dictation offers new punctuation and paragraphing when capturing long statements, and Live Captions are now available within FaceTime.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And this is just the tip of the iceberg, more features and enhancements are arriving to Apple News, Game Center, Health, Fitness, and Maps. While many of these features have been introduced in recent years, there are signs of improvements in every corner of the OS.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is your favorite new feature?
