Here are your Apple Rumors for today:

Apple Rumors, iPhone 8, AAPLBeta: Apple (AAPL) has released its third iOS 9.3.2 beta for developers, reports AppleInsider. The new beta’s release comes roughly a week after the previous version was released to developers. The beta allows Night Shift while in Low Power mode, fixes an issue with the Game Center and will likely include many other small fixes for the mobile operating system. It’s also believed that it will be the last update to iOS 9.3 before the company releases iOS 10.

Upgrade: Apple is now allowing customers to use its upgrade program for iPhones bought through its online store, MacRumors notes. The service launched with the release of the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus and lets customers pay for the smartphones in installments. Doing so allows them to upgrade to the company’s new iPhone that is released every year. This feature was previously limited to customers that bought their iPhone from one of the company’s psychical retail locations. The plan also includes AppleCare+.

iPhone: A new rumor claims that Apple may stop releasing “s” versions of its iPhones next year, reports BGR. According to this rumor, the tech company is planning to release the rumored iPhone 8 in 2017. The iPhone 7 is expected to be released this year and moving straight to the iPhone 8 next year would disrupt the company’s current release schedule, which sees it releasing an “s” version of its current smartphone in the following year. It’s believed that this change is being made because the iPhone 8 will include many new features that would separate it from the typical “s” upgrade.
