Apple releases public beta 2 for iOS 12
Apple released today, the second public beta version of iOS 12. This will allow non-developers to check out the latest features of the new iOS build before its release later this year. The beta includes the Apple Maps update, which for now is limited to navigation in the San Francisco-Bay area. It also features new activity-themed stickers in Messages, and exterminates CarPlay and GPS bugs that were found in the first public beta.

Some of the other changes found with the second iOS 12 public beta include the return of the AirPods feature that stops playback when one AirPod is removed from an ear. Problems with third party apps like Twitter and Skype have been repaired, the weather widget has returned, and Spam calls and texts no longer show a blacked out message.

You can expect the beta to be buggy, and several features might not work correctly. As a result, unless you're a masochist, you might not want to install the iOS 12 beta on your daily driver.
