What’s new in iOS 12.2 Beta 6?

Here is the complete list of changes that this version brings –
- A new warranty section in Settings > General > About. It displays the time left for the device’s warranty to expire.

In spite of all its features, it comes with its fair share of bugs. For instance, some users have reported that iMessage messages are displaying random contacts instead of actual contacts.

Should you upgrade your device?
With the release of the sixth beta, we’re definitely inching closer to the GM build. Judging by the build number of the current update, it’s highly likely that Apple will seed another beta sometime during the next week.
Therefore, it’s better to hold off an update for a week or two so you can move straight onto the final Golden Master build.
Nevertheless, you can update your device right now if you want the aforementioned features on your iPhone or iPad right now.
