How are non-devs installing this?

Get the IPSW from here

It’s a beta so not everything works perfectly but I’m running both on iPhone XS Max and IPad Pro without too many show stoppers

Has anyone tried using an Xbone controller to play Steam Link games yet? I tried playing Hitman 2 with the touch controls on my iPad but I'm not keen on that method, I think a gamepad would work much better.

Don’t you need to pay to register your udid on the dev portal?

No, udid locking hasn’t been a thing for years.

Great!

Bare in mind you probably don't want to be installing Beta 1 to 3 as apps like banking apps have problems with glitches and not opening etc.

A quick question to anyone testing this. The feature to import photos onto the iPad via the USB port - either from a USB C card or from a camera - was speculated and has now been confirmed, I understand.

But does it also work the other way, i.e. can photos and video be exported from the iPad / iPhone back to an external device such as a USB C stick?

As far as I'm aware yes.

That would be great if so. I could leave my MBP ay home when travelling, and just take an iPad and a USB C hard drive or similar.

Drives just show in the files app like they would in finder. They have full read/write support.

Updated to this on both iPhone and iPad. All good.

I have it on my 10.5” Pro and everything seems to work ok.

Thank the lord!

Fantastic, thank you. My MacBook Pro is now destined for eBay!

Here’s a video to show the changes.

That's perfect. If they can bring out a USB C iPhone this year when I think I can ditch the iPad as well. Fab. Just need to see if the iPad can power my external USB hdd, or whether I'll need to upgrade to an ssd.

Has anyone tried the mouse with remote desktop applications like VMware Horizon or MSFT RDP?

I'm really concerned about the potential removal of force touch on the newer models. I use it daily to select, highlight and edit text with a single digit using various pressure levels.

I fear if they remove it they're going to totally shaft those of use that actually use our smartphones as productivity mobile computing devices and knock us back a few years compared to laptops and desktops, which is weird seeing as so many of the iOS13 updates seem aimed as making iOS a much more capable overall computing platform

If they ditch force touch after ditching mag safe it will feel like they're dead set on completely tossing out the window some of the best innovations Apple ever made.
