The new widget is added in videos app, there is new preserve camera setting. New emoji which looks like Unicode 9.0 update is added, it is also added on MacOS and watchOS. A new menu of 'Press and Hold to Speak' is added in Home Button Accessibility Settings.

There is new messages screen effect 'Celebration' added and new option 'Show Star Ratings' added in Music Settings. Though there is video app already, new TV app is added and its widget joins video widget.

It is written in Deccan Chronicle that, "Apple's iOS 10 packs a range of features, from 'raise to wake', a feature that will turn on the iPhone's lock screen without even touching the home button, to hide stock apps, allowing users to remove pre-installed stock apps."

There are mainly bug fixes which were found in beta 4 version. There is still a bug that TV app cannot be restored once it is deleted. So, there are not many changes in iOS 10.2 beta 5. Lock Screen bypass is fixed.
