After seeding the second developer betas, Apple has seeded the corresponding public betas of iOS 14.2 and iPadOS 14.2 to public beta testers.
Apple loves its ecosystem, but sometimes it has to branch out. And to get more people watching Apple TV+ content, that means a broader availability of the Apple TV app. And the Xbox and PlayStation may be the next destinations for the app.
Are you thinking about installing iOS 14? If so, you're probably aware that many power users avoid installing first versions of Apple's major software updates. As these initial iOS releases may contain many unfixed bugs, they inevitably tend to cause all sorts of issues for customers. With an app called AnyFix by iMobie, you can fix more than 130 common iOS system errors to ensure that your iOS 14 upgrade experience is as smooth as a butter.
iOS 14.2 brings a Yearly Activity option for the Apple Card. It's available under the Activity view in the upcoming iOS 14.2 update, having appeared in the second beta that dropped yesterday.

The firmware of your Beats products like wireless headphones, earphones and speakers now updates over the air rather than requiring the Beats Updater app for Mac or Windows PCs.
Some people are more battery conscious than others, but some folks truly don’t mind letting their battery level get so low that it lurks in the danger zone — a state of inevitable automatic shutdown.
If you align with the latter camp and you’re using a jailbroken device, then this may pose problems for tweak reliability and usability because modern jailbreaks tend to be semi-tethered or semi-untethered. With that in mind, a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called Puck by iOS developer Litten may be a handy addition to handsets that see deeper battery drain than others on a regular basis.
Having the ability to customize iOS or iPadOS’ native aesthetics is one of the top reasons to jailbreak your iPhone or iPad. That said, if you have a pwned handset at your disposal and you enjoy making it stand out from the crowd, then we think you may come to love a newly released and free jailbreak tweak called Koi by iOS developers Litten and woodfairy.
Koi is an incredibly simple tweak that offers its users an aesthetically pleasing color upgrade for the Home Screen’s 3D Touch or Haptic Touch menus, but unlike other tweaks released in the past, Koi colorize the background blur rather than the menu interface itself.
The Status Bar plays host to a digital clock almost all of the time, except of course when you launch Control Center. Once you do, the clock disappears from the Status Bar and is replaced by the cellular and Wi-Fi connection indicators and your carrier’s name instead.
