Apple rolled out iOS 12.1 Developer Beta 3 for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch on Tuesday. There don’t appear to be any new features, so this beta looks like it focuses on bug fixes.
iOS 12.1 includes Group FaceTime and eSIM support, as well as 70 new emoji. Group FaceTime was supposed to be included in the first iOS 12 public release, but was pulled during beta testing.

The developer betas also hint at new iPad Pro models coming this fall. If so, they’re likely coming in October.
