Apple announce iOS 14 their newest software version on 22 june at WWDC 2020.Immediately after the interview I installed the developer beta version on my iPhone 6s rose gold 32GB.

iOS 14 brings in new features such as home screen widgets,picture in picture mode,sleep tracking,buit in translate ,Change of default email and browser,App library,mentions in message, Compact call and siri UI, siri is now slightly intelligent.

In this article I will major on general experience with betas.The first beta and second beta were quite stable but with one major bug,Storage bug.Beta 3 fixed the storage bug and the beta is quite stable.The beta still got a tone of small issues on my iphone 6s such keyboard not popping up sometimes,app library and control centre crashing some times,some app crashing,Issues with downloads on some apps specifically Netflix in my case.

Nevertheless iOS seems promising and will advise you to install the public version if you cant wait till fall for the official release.
