Today came the first beta version of iOS 8.1Visible innovations for the user it is not much, but the developers are digging in the new firmware found mention of the fingerprint scanner in the new iPad and the hidden settings menu for Apple Pay.
Although the new firmware version has been released recently, developers have already conducted its inspection and to his surprise found the references to digging in Touch ID in the new iPadWhich are likely to present in October. Such a move is quite expected for Apple's, because Touch ID on the iPhone appeared in the last year, and now it was the turn of tablets. NFC support new iPad has not yet announced, but we can assume that the new device will not support this technology, because the pay in-store with the help of such a bulky device is not very convenient.
In addition to iOS 8.1 beta 1 hidden settings menu has been found for the Apple's payment system. In this menu we have the opportunity to enter the data on the card, which we intend to adhere to Apple Pay.
Presumably iOS 8.1 will be released after the presentation of the new iPad in the next month, around the time will also be launched and Apple Pay, which will be added to the new firmware.
