After a couple of peace and quiet since Apple’s last iOS update was released, the company surprised us all on Tuesday by releasing iOS 13.3.1 beta 1 and iPadOS 13.3.1 beta 1 for developers. We have now gone 24 hours with no massive bugs having been found in the new betas, which means it’s now time to widen the net and make them available to end users who are enrolled in the public beta program. iOS 13.3.1 public beta 1 and iPadOS 13.3.1 public beta 1 were both released on Wednesday afternoon, and they’re available immediately to anyone with a compatible device that is currently enrolled in Apple’s public beta program.
