New iOS 13 beta updates include a dedicated Dark Mode toggle, the ability to show and hide link previews from the Safari context menu, and more. Watch our hands-on look at iOS 13 beta 6 changes and features for more details.

  • More saturated folder background blends better
  • New Photos splash screen
  • New App Store splash screen
  • Updated Sync Library UI in Music
  • Live Local radio stations
  • Three-finger tap brings up copy/paste menu
  • New heart app icon on watchOS beta 6

My favorite new update in iOS 13 beta 6 is the presence of the dedicated Dark Mode button in Control Center. I always felt that the feature was big enough to warrant its own toggle, especially when you consider that toggles exist for much lesser features.
