Following Apple’s release of iOS 14.2, iPadOS 14.2, tvOS 14.2, and watchOS 7.1 Developer Beta 2 updates, Apple has released the latest iOS 14.2, iPadOS 14.2 Beta 2 system update.
iOS 14.2 and iPadOS 14.2 are now available for download through the Apple Developer Center, or through an update after installing the appropriate developer profile .
The iOS 14.2/ iPadOS 14.2 Beta2 update mainly fixes some bugs and adds some emoji 13.0 expressions. The function update still retains Beta 1 content. For example, it brings a new music recognition control function to the control center and strengthens the operation of the Shazam app on iOS Integration in the system.
Apple has added a new Emoji 13 emoji in iOS/iPadOS 14.2. The options include teary smiley, ninja, pinch fingers, anatomical heart, black cat, mammoth, polar bear, dodo, fly, bell pepper, tamar , Pearl milk tea, potted plants, pinata, pillars, wands, feathers, huts, etc.
Music recognition can help users identify the music being played, and can also identify the music being played by other apps, even if the user is wearing AirPods.
Users can add the Shazam music recognition function to the control center through the “Control Center” option in “Settings”. To use the music recognition function, you need to open the control center first, and then tap the Shazam icon to start individual music recognition.
It is worth mentioning that the iPhone/ipad has been able to wake up and use Shazam through Siri or Shazam applications before, but in any case, the ability to add shortcuts to the control center option at least allows users to use the music recognition function more conveniently.
The new version update also includes a redesigned “Now Playing” widget, which lists recently played albums. When users are not playing music, they can try to listen to these albums. In addition, AirPlay also has a redesigned interface and supports to help users more easily play music on multiple AirPlay 2 devices at home.
For users with poor eyesight, Apple has added a “human-machine detection” function to the magnifying glass application, which uses the iPhone lens to make users more intuitively understand the distance to other people, which may be very useful for social interaction.
As for smaller but interesting adjustments, iOS 14.2 brings new icons to the Apple Watch app, and the watch now uses one of Apple’s new Solo Loop straps.
