Leading the Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) rumor mill today is a new beta for developers . Today, we’ll look at that and other for Wednesday.
iOS 12.1.1 Beta: , reports MacRumors. This new beta includes some bug fixes for the company’s mobile devices. It’s unknown what these are, as Apple doesn’t go into detail with release notes. The tech company says the new beta will also improve performance of its devices. All of this talk points to iOS 12.1.1 being a smaller update that won’t introduce new features. The current beta is only available to developers.
Helium: ,
9to5Mac notes. This incident took place in a Chicago hospital and it has to do with a liquid helium leak. This leak caused 40 AAPL devices, including smartphones and smartwatches, to stop working. Some of the issues were only temporary, but other devices didn’t recover. The issue has to do with the MEMS silicon timing oscillators used for the CPU clock. The issue didn’t affect Android devices.
Leap Motion: , reports Business Insider. The company has made two offers for the AR startup over the last few years, but both ended in failure. According to recent reports, the first time around it was due to a negative attitude concerning AAPL and its devices. The second time it looks like the founders of the company weren’t happy with the $50 million asking price.
