iOS 11.1, macOS 10.13.1, watchOS 4.1 & tvOS 11.1 - Beta 2 ist da

Apple arbeitet mit Hochdruck an der Verbesserung seiner neuen Betriebssysteme, denn mit Ruhm bekleckert hat man sich vor allem mit iOS 11 beileibe nicht. Umso wichtiger ist es für den Hersteller aus Cupertino, dass die neuen Releases stabiler und schneller werden. Am gestrigen Abend sind die zweiten Testversion von iOS 11.1, watchOS 4.1, tvOS 11.1 und macOS 10.13.1 erschienen.

Auch bei dieser Info handelt es sich vorerst nur um die Veröffentlichung der Entwicklerbetas. Es ist aber davon auszugehen, dass spätestens am heutigen Abend die öffentlichen Testversionen ebenfalls erscheinen. Seit ihr registrierter Apple-Developer? Dann könnt ihr euch im Developer Portal die entsprechenden Beta-Profile herunterladen und auf den Geräten installieren. Geht es euch wie mir und ihr habt die Profile nie deinstalliert, dann sollten die Releases automatisch in den Einstellungen auftauchen. Ich bin bisher äußerst positiv überrascht, wie viel besser die neuen Versionen im Gegensatz zu den aktuell verfügbaren finalen Releases sind.

Hier sind die Release Notes:
