It looks like Apple still has a surprise or two up with leave every now and again. One day I had of schedule, for at least the schedule everyone was expecting, Apple released the third beta version of its latest mobile software. iOS 10 beta 3 offers plenty of stability improvements and maybe even a new feature or two, and you can download and install it beginning right now.

Apple’s new iOS 10 software represents a big departure from the previous version of iOS. The software is expected to be released this coming September alongside Apple’s new iPhone but as it always does, the company has released a preview version of its new software for developers. A public beta is available to all users who sign up on Apple’s website, but this version released today is for developers only.

If Apple stays true to form, and new version of the publicly available data should be available soon. Public beta users have a lot to look forward to, because today’s update is packed full of new features including a redesign Control Center, a new lock screen experience complete with 3D Touch enhancements, and much more. Sadly, there’s still no dark mode available.

iOS 10 beta 3 can be installed immediately as an over the air update, and a downloadable version should be available shortly through apple developer website.
