Apple updated its developer beta releases last night, so anyone with a developer account can update to new versions of the latest software. In addition to iOS 11.2 Beta 2, a new version for watchOS, tvOS and macOS has also appeared. Let's take a quick look at what's new in the new iOS beta.

One of the most fundamental changes is updating the monetization policy for developers and their apps in the App Store. Applications that offer some form of subscription will now be able to have a discounted price for new customers. The monthly fee for the service will not be fixed, but the developer will be able to determine a new level of fees, which will be more favorable than the classic ones and will target new customers. This has not been possible until now.

Also new to the system are a few wallpapers for iPhone X owners. These are both live and dynamic wallpapers, which you can check out in the video above. In addition to the new wallpapers, a haptic response has been added when you leave the control center. However, that is all from the point of view of news. This particular beta doesn't seem to bring much change. We are still waiting for the first information on when Apple will finally release Apple Pay Cash and iMessage synchronization on iCloud. It was originally speculated that these features would arrive as early as s iOS 11.1, now hopes have moved one version away. However, there is no mention of these features in the new betas. The iOS 11.2 operating system should see a public release by the end of this year.
