Writing Tools, a previous addition to iOS and iPadOS, is getting a new API for third-party apps.
Siri has long-awaited ChatGPT integration for some queries. Apple is also making Apple Intelligence available in more regions.

AppleInsider and Apple strongly discourage users from installing test operating systems or other beta or RC software on “mission-critical” or essential hardware due to the remote possibility of issues that could result in data loss. Testers should therefore use secondary or non-essential devices and ensure they have adequate backups of any critical data.
