A little while ago, Apple released iOS 12 Developer beta 8, which fixes problems that cause iPhones and iPads to slow down significantly. The previous, seventh beta version contained several bugs due to which Apple was forced to withdraw the update.

Although our editors did not notice any problems with iOS 12 beta 7, a number of testers complained of a noticeable decrease in the performance of their devices after the update. The interesting thing was that the error only affected those users who downloaded the OTA update, i.e. via the iPhone or iPad settings. IPSW files downloaded from the Apple Developer Center were not affected.

The patch beta comes less than two days after Apple pulled the seventh beta version from circulation. The update is 364,3 MB in size for the iPhone X, and registered developers with the appropriate profile can download it traditionally in Settings -> In general -> Software update.
