One day after the iOS 9.2 beta 2 for developers already follows the public preview

One day after the iOS 9.2 beta 2 for developers already follows the public preview version of the operating system for all Apple users. In the new update is an interesting feature has been hiding.

Finally, on Tuesday, Apple had released the second beta of iOS 9.2 developer, on Wednesday night was followed by even the public beta for all users of an iPhone or iPad. As 9to5Mac noticed hiding in the Public Beta 2 of iOS 9.2, a feature that has not yet been discovered in the developer version: an improvement of the WiFi Callings by the AT & T system NumberSync. The US mobile giant had the technology introduced until mid-October. With NumberSync calls on the tablet or the SmartWatch can be answered without direct connection to a smartphone. For this is set for all devices simply a universal AT & T phone number.

WiFi Calling plays no role in Germany (yet)
Especially for the functionality of Smart Watches this function could be revolutionary: At last the clever clock no longer would have to be permanently connected to the smartphone via Bluetooth to receive text messages or phone calls. The catch: So far is WiFi Calling US only an issue in Germany that feature plays a role in any provider.

Otherwise iOS 9.2 Public Beta 2 does not contain any visible changes compared to the developer preview. iOS 9.2 Beta 2 included mainly bug fixes and performance improvements. In addition, the operating options of Safari viewControllers were expanded. A final release date for iOS 9.2 is not yet fixed. Sometimes Apple released up to five beta versions of a software update before the official version will start. However, it is also possible that iOS 9.2 will be rolled out in conjunction with the iPad Pro already on 11 November.
