iOS 8 Beta 5 Release Date, Reviews and Specs: New iOS 8 Beta 5 Features Health App and Improvements to Photo Apps
Apple's iOS 8 Beta 5 release date was released last week on August 5 and confirmed rumors about it that started about two weeks ago. The latest version of the Apple OS is not available to all consumers but the latest release of the Beta version reveals that the iOS 8 is one step closer toward public release on a grand scale. According to recent speculation from the same sources that got the beta release date right, the iOS 8 is definitely going public this fall, however, there is no exact launch date which has been given on the matter. Of course, Apple will not confirm the rumors which have been set in place though so the fans will just have to be patient of they want to hear from the absolute source, though, some of the devices which have been confirmed to get the iO8 include the iPhone 4, iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c, and the iPad mini 1 and 2 versions.
Similarly, the Beta 6 version of the software is rumored to be coming out on 15th which is just days from now. The main reason for the beta versions is to continue working on the finished product even if it is not yet released to the public per say. As such, the iOS 8 beta 5 comes with some interesting change. For example, there is a new health application. This health app is capable of collecting some data related to spirometry. This is used to measure the lung function by keeping track of the amount and speed of air inhaled into the lungs during breathing. This is good to determine whether a person is about to have an asthma attack or respiratory problem.
The introduction of the health focused application by the tech giant in the software beta version shows the company is attempting to integrate more serious and helpful health devices. Some of the other apps improved include photo apps by showing users what time they photos were uploaded to iCloud.
