You won't be able to unless you download the new Xcode beta or wait for the new MacOS beta which may drop tomorrow.

I checked the release notes previously for this sort of thing as it has happened before. No mention of it. So thought maybe this needs the release version.
 
Just to confirm, if you can't update via IPSW, you need to download Xcode, unzip, open it and install the components, you can then throw Xcode in the bin and update your phone normally.
 
Dual SIM now works with 5G

Finally 5G on dual sim! I have been waiting for what feels like forever. Not for the speed, but for the software downloads and other data uses that were not permitted on LTE.

Nothing here either.

I think you have to enable 'Allow Apps to Request to Track' under Privacy settings. Reading, if you turn it on, apps will ask for permission, if you leave it off, apps will be restricted and will not ask.

Checked that, turned it off, and on again. Nothing.
 
Is HomeKit fixed with the hue lights. Currently if you want to set different lights in a single fixture and save the automation is defaults to the white color changing feature. So stupid.

Oddly enough, I was able to get the Privacy request using the 2 apps they had in the demo - NBA and Reuters. Either the Beta only focuses on those 2 apps, or its a setting that needs to be added to the app. Xcode is still installing for me, so I can't tell from there, but damn, I hope it's not an honor system setting.

Where do you turn that Apple Watch unlock feature on? Anybody know?

Edit: found it, in Settings - Face ID & Passcode on the phone.

Don't have those apps, got Reuters to test, but doesn't show up for me there either.
 
I don't have an Apple Watch so was a bit jealous that you'll all be able to unlock the phone while wearing a mask, but I've just read that Apple Pay stuff still needs full FaceID unlock. As that's the main time I'm wearing a mask and needing to unlock the phone (paying at the till), I still need to enter my PIN. Phew. Not quite so jealous 🙂

Just making sure - "Reuters News". I realize this looks exactly like the Apple demo pics, but it's legit

EDIT: Oh look, I found a bug!!! The screen capture shows the my phone's background around the edges! 😛

You can use the Apple Watch to pay with Apple Pay, I never use my phone for that anyway. The watch is way faster.
