• iOS 14 beta 5 fixes one of the tiny iOS 14 changes that aren’t important enough to be addressed during an iOS presentation. But it’s a feature that a certain group of people will observe as soon as they upgrade to iOS 14.
• The iconic time picker scrolling wheel you’re currently using to set up new alarms is gone in iOS 14, as Apple replaced it with a keypad that lets you enter the time manually.
• iOS 14 beta 5 fixes that “issue” by adding a smaller scrolling wheel to the time field.

Apple’s latest iPhone and iPad operating systems bring over several new features and changes, which are already available to customers willing to install the iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 beta version on their devices. While bugs and issues are to be expected from beta releases, the beta builds are relatively stable and offer an overall great experience. You can easily test the public beta on your daily driver, although you should make sure you backup your current iOS 13 install before you move to iOS 14 beta 5.

Dig deeper, and you’ll discover smaller changes that are coming to iPhone and iPad. And if you end up using iOS 14 for a few days, then you’re bound to notice one of the most annoying iOS 14 changes.
