Apple Seeds Second Beta of iOS 9.3.2 to Public Beta Testers

ios93Apple today released the second beta of an upcoming iOS 9.3.2 update to public beta testers, just a day after seeding the second iOS 9.3.2 beta to developers. iOS 9.3.2 beta 2 comes just over a month after the public release of iOS 9.3 and three weeks after the release of iOS 9.3.1, a followup bug fix update. iOS 9.3.2 has been in testing since April 6.

Beta testers who have signed up for Apple's beta testing program will receive the iOS 9.3.2 update over-the-air after installing the proper certificate on their iOS device.

Those who want to be a part of Apple's beta testing program can sign up to participate through the beta testing website, which gives users access to both iOS and OS X betas.

iOS 9.3.2, as a minor 9.x.x update, focuses primarily on performance improvements and under-the-hood bug fixes to address issues that have been discovered since the release of iOS 9.3. We don't know all of the fixes that will be included, but significant Game Center bug appears to have been fixed in the first beta, while iOS 9.3.2 beta 2 added the ability to use Low Power Mode and Night Shift simultaneously. No other outward-facing changes or immediately apparent bug fixes have been discovered in the first two developer betas.

My battery life has been less than stellar with the first beta. Hopefully this fixes it a bit.

My device: iPhone 6s Plus

Ever since this latest minor public beta update, I've experienced issues with the fingerprint sensor not recognizing any of my fingers, and the phone (not the sensor) seems to be getting extremely hot after only 5 minutes of usage (not plugged into the charger.

Anyone else have these or any other similar up issues with this update?

I've tried re-doing my finger print settings and have turned the phone on and off. No luck.
Been fine here. Something is most likely running rogue causing the heat. Sounds like you need to perform the "reset all settings" option. That typically will solve this type of behavior after an update. This does not loose your apps or data but does reset wallpaper and removed all wifi networks so you will have to add those back.
