10 Things to Know About the iOS 9 Beta

Apple Music & Battery Life

One feature that is now available in the iOS 9 beta is Apple Music, Apple's brand new music platform that arrived alongside iOS 8.4 last week. 

Apple Music has a number of important pieces including UI changes, changes to iTunes Radio, Beats 1, and more. If you're not familiar with Apple Music, take a look at the most important things to know about it before starting your three month trial. 

After you've moved to iOS 9 beta, we recommend taking a look at our Apple Music tips and tricks so that you can get the most out of the feature in the weeks and months ahead. 

A few other iOS 9 beta features that we think are worth singling out are the improvements to battery life for iPhone. 

iOS 9 is coming with some new battery saving features and some straightforward improvements to battery life. For instance, after installing the iOS 9 update, iPhone 6 users should see an immediate one hour boost to battery life. That's huge. 

Mileage will obviously vary based on device and based on user habits but these are some of the most exciting features coming in iOS 9. Get familiar with them before installing the iOS 9 beta and after if you decide to install it.
