Apple seeds first public betas of iOS 13.4, iPadOS 13.4 to public beta testers [Updated]

Last week, Apple officially kickstarted its new wave of beta seeds with the release of the first developer betas of iOS 13.4, iPadOS 13,4, and other updates to its major platforms.

Update: Apple has also seeded the first public beta of macOS Catalina 10.15.4 to public beta testers. If you are signed up for the public beta program, you can download and install the new pre-release software through the Software Update option in the System Preferences.

Now, a week later and the public beta testers get their chance at a crack at the pre-release software. On Monday, Apple officially seeded the first public betas of iOS 13.4 and iPadOS 13.4 to the public beta testers out there in the wild. If you are already signed up for the public beta program, you’ll be able to download and install the latest pre-release software as an over-the-air (OTA) update.

If you aren’t already signed up for the public beta program, but want to be, you can do so here.

This is not a minor update, either, as iOS 13.4 and iPadOS 13.4 bring with it some worthwhile new additions to the mobile operating system. That includes the addition of nine new Memoji sticker types, adding a little more personalization and fun into the mix.

In addition to that, iOS 13.4 welcomes with it a new “CarKey” feature that will allow the iPhone and Apple Watch to not only lock and unlock some cars, but also start them. With iOS 13.4 and iPadOS 13.4, Apple is welcoming back the iCloud Drive folder sharing feature as well. And finally, the latest software fixes the Mail toolbar.

It is not likely that there will be any brand new features added to the public betas, but if that does change we will update this post accordingly.
