Apple has seeded a new iOS beta to developers today just a week after the company dropped iOS 9.3.2 on the public. The new update likely contains a number of under the hood improvements and bug fixes, but Apple may surprise us with a few other tweaks.

Thew new iOS 9.3.3 beta 1, build 13G12 can be downloaded by all developers this morning from the Developer Center.

It’s unknown if Apple has added any major changes to the new iOS build. The release notes for iOS 9.3.3 beta 1 are slim on new info and merely point out that there are known issues with the Dictionary and Simulator.

iOS 9.3.2 brought only minor features like the ability to use Night Shift and Power Saving Mode at the same time, while also adding a number of bug fixes. Apple is unlikely to add any big features to iOS before WWDC 2016 next month where it is expected to unveil iOS 10 as well as major updates for OS X, watchOS, tvOS and more.

We’ll let you know if we find any new goodies once we install the update on our devices.

    “but Apple may surprise us with a few other tweaks” such as more bricked model ?

    It would be nice if they included a fix for bricked iPads from 9.3.2

    I get an error message when I try to download and install the latest beta on one of my iPhones (iphone 6 plus).. just says there has been an error and to try again.. Tried the public beta download and get the same message.. Never had an issue like this before

    I cannot initiate a text message with the new Beta. I get an error that the number is invalid and it shows 1 1+ 407-123-4567 as the number. It is adding an additional 1 to the prefix. I turned off the Dial Assist under the Phone Settings with no change. Tried for a few different numbers. I can respond to a text I received or successfully sent to in the past…no new one’s work. Turning off iMessage doesn’t help either.
