iOS 15 Beta 6 Now Available for Public Testers

The latest beta has been released to more users

Apple rolled out iOS 15 beta 6 earlier this week, and while this build was originally available only for registered developers, the company has now decided to release it for all public testers.

In other words, if you’re participating in Apple’s beta program, you can now download a new iOS 15 beta on your iPhone, ahead of the highly anticipated launch next month.

iOS 15 beta 6 comes with several changes under the hood, but one of the most important concerns Safari, which is getting an option to move the address back at the top of the screen. iOS 15 introduced a rather controversial change, moving the Safari address bar to the bottom, possibly in an attempt to make the browser easier to use with one hand.

However, given the criticism lately, Apple has decided to introduce a new option in iOS 15 beta 6 that allows users to return to the previous layout and therefore move the address bar to the top.

iOS 15 coming next month

Apple’s next iOS version is projected to launch in September, obviously with substantial changes under the hood, including a new notification system that makes it easier to stay up to date with what’s happening on the iPhone.

In addition to the address bar moved to the bottom, Safari is also getting other improvements.

“Safari gets a new design that makes controls easier to reach with one hand and puts content front and center. The new tab bar is compact and lightweight, and floats at the bottom of the screen, so users can easily swipe between tabs. Tab Groups allow users to save tabs and easily access them at any time across iPhone, iPad, or Mac. New features, such as the customizable start page and web extensions on iOS, make Safari even more personal and powerful,” Apple said.

iOS 15 will be supported on iPhone 6s and newer.
