According to MacRumors, the new beta aims to bring the COVID-19 Vaccination Card feature to the Wallets app, something which Android users have already been enjoying as they store it virtually.

It would be helpful as a lot of establishments all over the country require proof of vaccination, and sometimes, having it on the card would be a hassle to bring.

SharePlay is a feature where users can allow friends or family to stream music, movies, or series via the FaceTime application, as well as use it to share the screen on a smartphone.

Other features coming would be the "Announce Call" and "Lossless Audio" support for the HomePod. These functions are speculated to come for the iOS 15.1, something which people can enjoy once it releases.
