After the highly anticipated iOS 17, all eyes turned to Apple for 17.1 and 17.2. After some problems with 17 and 17.1, Apple released the first beta update for 17.2 today, which is expected to please its users. In addition, the first beta updates have been released for watchOS 10.2, macOS 14.2 and more. Here are the details…
Tapback and Journal applications are coming with iOS 17.2!
Along with the iOS 17.2 beta 1 released today, Apple also released watchOS 10.2 developer beta 1, macOS 14.2 Sonoma developer beta 1, tvOS 17.2 developer beta 1 and HomePod 17.2 developer beta 1 updates. We can say that today has literally turned into a software carnival for Apple. The Journal application, which is expected to come with iOS 17.2, and the Tapback feature in messages are also a matter of curiosity.
With iOS 17.2 beta 1 released today, unreleased features related to the Journal application and the Tapback feature to messages will come. Apple’s Journal app was first introduced at WWDC 2023. The company stated that the app will be released later this year, rather than launching with iOS 17.0. This points to one of the iOS 17.2 or 17.3 updates.
