Already introduced, when will iOS 14 be officially released?
Gadgetren – As the successor to the iOS 13 operating system on the iPhone or iPod Touch, iOS 14 has a multitude of interesting and newest features compared to the previous generation.
The beta version of iOS 14 was presented at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2021 in the USA. Based on the previous generation, it is very likely that the stable version of iOS 14 will hit the market at the same time as the presence of the latest iPhone 12 series at the end of September 2021.
A few days later after the iPhone 12 series was released, the stable version of iOS 14 will be released for many other supported Apple devices. In other words, for those of you who can’t wait to try out the latest features in iOS 14, you can try the beta version of the operating system on your Apple device first.
Keep in mind, however, that the beta version of iOS 14 is still buggy and unstable, so if there are problems or hangs in the future, you will have to face the consequences. Usually, the users of the beta version of the system are developers and people who can’t wait to see the new features that are in it.
Subsequent users of the iOS 14 beta can submit complaints, criticisms, suggestions, and reports to Apple for optimal improvements when the stable version is released worldwide.
Interestingly, some older iPhones like the iPhone 6s and the first generation iPhone SE are still on the list that iOS 14 gets. The following is a list of Apple devices that receive the operating system.

In addition, iOS 14 itself brings new functions such as more attractive widgets, picture-in-picture, Siri improvements and much more. This time, Apple has developed widgets that allow users to quickly get a lot of information at a glance.
These widgets can be added to the home screen and arranged in different sizes as desired by the iPhone user. There is also a stack of Smart Widgets that have been filtered based on the applications that users frequently use.
Picture-in-Picture is already available on Android smartphones, but this is the first time it’s available on iOS. This feature allows users to multitask activities on the iPhone screen while watching videos.
This time, Siri can access offline and quick translations for various languages ranging from German, Chinese, English, Spanish, French, Italian, Korean, Japanese, Arabic, Russian and Portuguese. When the iPhone is in landscape orientation, the conversation function is activated in two different languages, which makes it easier for iPhone users to have conversations with other people.
