We got our first taste of Apple’s updated music app two weeks ago with the release of iOS 8.4 beta 1, but Apple’s already seeding a new update to its mobile operating system.

The iOS 8.4 beta 2 update is available now in the iOS Dev Center as well as via an over-the-air update for all public beta testers. Apple also pushed out Xcode 6.4 beta 2 to developers this morning.

The last iOS 8.4 beta added new features such as a MiniPlayer, global search, Up Next and more to the Music app, but there’s still no sign of the long-rumored streaming music redesign that’s in the works. We’ll let you know what new features we find once we get the software on our devices.

In the meantime, here are the direct download links:
