A developer version of Apple's new iPad software that was released to developers Wednesday hints at a new iPad design, according to 9to5Mac.

The iOS 12 developer beta includes a new icon that does not have a home button and appears to have thinner bezels (the borders between the screen and the edge of the iPad), 9to5Mac said. Numerous reports throughout the past year have suggested that Apple's next iPad will include Face ID instead of a home button.
