iOS 18.2 Beta 3 Released for Developers

The third beta of iOS 18.2 has been released, now available for developer beta testers. This update follows the second beta launched last week. The public rollout of iOS 18.2 is set for December, featuring new Apple Intelligence functionalities, enhancements to Find My, and additional improvements.

The newly released iOS 18.2 beta 3, with build number 22C5131e, is currently accessible for developer beta testers. A public beta update is expected later this week. This version is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 18, while the Apple Intelligence features are exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and all models of the iPhone 16.

iOS 18.2 introduces the second wave of Apple Intelligence features:

  • Image Playground allows users to quickly create “fun images” by typing, with options for Animation or Illustration styles.
  • Genmoji enables you to create custom emojis from text descriptions.
  • You now have the option to access ChatGPT when interacting with Siri in iOS 18.2.
  • The Writing Tools feature introduces a “Compose” button for generating text based on selected topics, along with a “describe your change” option.
  • Visual intelligence uses the iPhone 16’s camera capabilities to enhance your understanding of your surroundings.
  • Image Wand in the Notes app lets you transform rough sketches into appealing images and generate images drawing context from your notes.

Besides Apple Intelligence features, iOS 18.2 also rolls out a revamped Mail app that organizes your emails into four distinct categories: Primary, Transactions, Updates, and Promotions.

The Find My app has also been enhanced, now allowing users to share the location of a lost AirTag with others.
