iOS 7 beta 2 is now available for developers with some new features.

iOS 7 beta 2 is now available, arriving just a couple of weeks after the first developer-exclusive version was released. We later learned that any user could install the iOS 7 beta with a few tricks. This second beta of iOS 7 brings improvements and bug fixes, and is now compatible with iPad and iPad mini. You don't need to be a developer to install iOS 7 Beta 2 😀

iOS 7 is not a public update , but despite this, many developers have noticed that their apps are used by more users with iOS 7 than with iOS 5, the older version of Apple's operating system.

If you already have the first iOS 7 beta installed, you can update to the second beta from your iPhone or iPod touch via OTA (Over The Air) after a 237 MB download.

New in this version:

iOS 7 BETA 2 includes the version for iPad Mini and iPad 2 and later.
The Voice Memos app is back in iOS 7 BETA 2
The new version also includes the new voices of Crab for Male and Female, but only for the English language at the moment.
Application of Reminders It underwent some changes and now works well.
Application of Messages It shows the contact's photo when they are in conversations
New animation when sending an iMessage
Button SEND It's much bigger in the app. Messages
Now you can choose whether you want the contact in text messages to be identified with the“Nickname”

Voice Memos in iOS 7 beta 2

As we know , the Voice app wasn't included in Beta 1. Now, in this new beta, Apple has it available.

New Siri options with gender selection for your voice
