Apple today provided its public beta testing group with the second beta of iOS 10.3.2, nearly two weeks after seeding the first iOS 10.3.2 beta and a day after releasing the second beta to developers. iOS 10.3.2 comes shortly after the release of iOS 10.3, a major update that brought features like a new Find My AirPods feature and Apple File System, and iOS 10.3.1, a minor security update.

Beta testers who have signed up for Apple's beta testing program will receive the iOS 10.3.2 beta update over-the-air after installing the proper certificate on their iOS device.

Those who want to be a part of Apple's beta testing program can sign up to participate through the beta testing website, which gives users access to both iOS and macOS Sierra betas. Betas are not stable and include many bugs, so they should be installed on a secondary device.

According to Apple's release notes, the iOS 10.3.2 update fixes SiriKit car commands, which should now be working as expected. Aside from the SiriKit fix, we don't know what other bug fixes and improvements are included, as nothing notable has been discovered in the betas we've received so far.

As a minor 10.x.x update, iOS 10.3.2 likely focuses on bug fixes, performance improvements, and security enhancements rather than outward-facing features.

Ever since I installed 10.3.1 final, I've experienced significantly worse battery life on my iPhone 6 Plus - even compared to the earlier betas. I'm hoping 10.3.2 fixes that.

There's a 6S around here that's doing the same but I'm convinced it's because the battery is in a declining state not because of any significant changes in power usage.
 
Battery life got a little better only after I hard-reset the phone (holding down the power and VOL down buttons) on my 7+..... Seems a few of the apps I use need updating to accommodate the high % of battery drain.

10.3.2 beta 2 only barely came out 2 days ago for developers (and even that said, this thread is about the public beta that came out barely a day ago).

The thread is about beta 2 in particular, so in the context of this thread something that is brought up would be basically be seen in that context. To this moment there still hasn't been any mention of what was said being about beta 1 specifically, which would have certainly clarified things.

I'm confused by these reports of battery issues. Wouldn't a phone get noticeably warm/hot if it was draining the battery significantly faster than it should? And it seems to me after every minor update a noticeable number say their battery life has improved while some are saying the opposite.

Just a thought, have you checked battery health? There are loads of apps in the Store.

One of the 7s here is showing an 8% degradation which is a 4% drop since January.

Batteries have about 700-800 full cycles before being substantially degraded. If your a heavy user and do one near full charge per day, then in 3.5 months you'd have about 100 at the maximum, so your number looks like a normal degradation from substantial use.

If your a lighter user and keep your battery in the 35-90% range most of the time, you could get 1200-1500 charge cycles before this substantial degradation. There are charts about depth of battery discharge cycles, temperature in various factor's impact on battery life.

Every update leads to a lot of phone activity related to the update (apps, settings, etc) that drain the phone.
One thing to check is if some settings have been reset or a new setting leads to new activity.
Also, the beta update doesn't normally update your apps which may have so issues with the new software; that's for the third party software vendor to take care of.
