Yesterday (October 19), after Apple officially launched the iPad, it pushed iOS and iPad OS 16.1 RC beta, which is the last beta version of iOS 16.1. The size of the update package is about 5GB, and the version number is 20B79. Later, the official released; The official versions of iOS and iPad OS 16.1 will be officially launched on October 25. It should be noted that the partners who have upgraded the beta version cannot update the official version.
According to the official log, this update mainly introduces the iCloud shared photo gallery, which enables family photos to be shared and kept updated. This update also adds third-party APP support to real-time activities.
The updated content of iOS16.1 RC beta version:

This time, as the last version of iOS 16.1 beta, a lot of content has been updated, and iOS 16.1 has begun to stabilize. The previous official version of iOS 16.0X is more likely to be launched in a hurry for the launch of the iPhone 14 series. Now the upcoming iOS 16.1 is the official version. I believe it can solve most of the problems that have occurred before.
