When iOS 7 was announced and seeded to developers two weeks ago at Apple’s WWDC, iPad and iPad Mini support was not included. It was an iPhone-only affair, and according to Macrumors.com, Apple’s begun seeding (sending out the installation packages — SDKs) of iOS 7 beta 2 and anyone with an iOS development center account can possibly update to the latest version of the mobile OS now.

Here are some of the improvements on offer in iOS 7 beta 2:
- The voice memo app is back
- Those who have access to iOS 7 have said that Siri is “much faster than in Beta 1″
- Apple demoed a new male and female Siri voice and this is now part of the beta 2 SDK
The rest of the information pertaining to iOS 7 can be found here, with Apple’s release notes – which for some reason is not loading right now.
