Apple has rolled out the third beta versions of iOS 14.2, iPadOS 14.2, watchOS 7.1, and tvOS 14.2 to developers. If the proper configuration file is installed, iOS 14.2 can be directly updated via OTA.

iOS 14.2 beta 1 introduces the Shazam control that will recognize songs by tap it on the Control Center. There is also a new "People Detection" feature in the Magnifier app, which intends to use the camera to let iPhone users know how far away other people are. The media controls in the Control Center now include content suggestions when nothing is being played.

Meanwhile, beta 2 added a handful of new emoji characters for users, but most of them were previewed in July. However, as Emojipedia points out, there are a few emojis that we have not seen from Apple until today, which includes Smiling Face with Tear and Disguised Face, as well as Apple's gender variations for people wearing a Tuxedo or Veil.

Beta 2 also added a yearly spending history option for ‌Apple Card users, so they can see how much they've spent in the current calendar year and how much Daily Cash they've earned.

However, other than that, we haven't discovered any new features yet. If you did find one, do let us know by leaving a comment down below.
