iOS

Après plus de deux mois de développement et huit bêtas, on s'approche doucement mais sûrement de la version finale. Apple vient en effet de livrer la release candidate d'iOS 14.5 (numérotée 18E199), de tvOS 14.5 (18L204) et de watchOS 7.4 (18T195). Si tout va bien, cette RC sera la dernière bêta avant la finale attendue dans le courant de la semaine prochaine, comme Apple l'a confirmé dans le communiqué de presse de l'AirTag.

Cette ultime mouture devrait aussi être l'occasion pour Apple de dévoiler les notes de version qui listent l'ensemble des nouveautés d'iOS 14.5 (et des autres). On vous propose déjà nos découvertes de cette importante mise à jour qui aurait pu être présentée durant la WWDC tellement les nouveautés sont nombreuses.
