iOS 14 and iPadOS 14

Apple has released the second beta versions of iOS 14 and iPadOS 14, for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad, respectively.

The second beta versions are currently available to anyone who has installed the iOS 14 developer beta onto their devices, whether through direct enrollment or other means.
