Probably more than one might expect, as Apple typically follows a dual-cycle in which most updates arrive on the system every two beta versions. In other words, every month. However, this time there are <strong>several new features arriving in various parts of the system<\/strong>. Specifically, these are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Locating the Siri Remote<\/strong>: A new pop-up window in the Remote app, accessible from the Control Center, informs us about the possibility of locating the physical Siri Remote for our Apple TV using the iPhone. Although the feature isn&#8217;t active yet, it&#8217;s a clear indication of what&#8217;s to come and marks the beginning of the end of having to search under all the sofa cushions to find the remote control.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/Imagen-6-9823-0849-1024x633.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-302069\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Improvements in Shortcuts<\/strong>: After being absent previously, now, the fifth beta once again allows the execution of automations based on our location automatically. Furthermore, it adds dedicated icons for Safari options. While previously all actions displayed the browser&#8217;s icon, they now show icons like a magnifying glass for searching, an arrow for opening URLs, etc.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"374\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/Imagen-4-9823-0849.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-243636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/Imagen-4-9823-0849.jpg 374w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/Imagen-4-9823-0849-156x300.jpg 156w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/Imagen-4-9823-0849-6x12.jpg 6w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/Imagen-4-9823-0849-150x289.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 374px) 100vw, 374px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Lowercase in the App Store<\/strong>: The App Store has undergone a slight but significant update in the design of download buttons.
