Last month, Apple launched their new generation smartphone operating system, iOS 16. This time Apple offers a user -customizable screen lock, Safety Check to help victims of domestic violence, safer and user -friendly photos, in addition to health features and many more.
For a month now, developers have been able to test up to three beta phases of iOS 16. Apple is now ready to give general users the opportunity to try iOS 16 in advance before the beta version launches in a few months.
While this beta version is already public, not all devices are eligible. iOS 16 cannot be used on iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone SE (Gen-1), iPhone 7 and even iPhone 7 Plus. Then, even though the iPhone 8/8 Plus and iPhone X support iOS 16 - not all features are usable. Many of the new features and functions require at least an Apple A12 Bionic chip.
