Notes and Known Issues

App Store

Known Issue

Users who performed an iCloud or iTunes restore onto a device with iOS 9.3 beta 3 from a backup created with iOS 9.3 beta 1 or 2 may be unable to install apps or log into iCloud when upgrading to iOS 9.3 beta 7.
Workaround: Perform an erase-install of iOS 9.3 beta 7 and restore data from either the iCloud or iTunes backup.
Apple ID

Known Issues

When using a Shared iPad, the device may hang for a few minutes at logout.
If you reboot your Access Point and a Shared iPad cannot reconnect to your network, you also need to reboot your Shared iPad.
Apple Watch

Known Issue

Certain features in the Apple Watch app require the developer seed of watchOS 2.2.
Dictionary

Known Issue

A user updating to an iOS 9 GM build from a seed build may see duplicate dictionaries in the definition dictionary list if the user switched primary language, added secondary languages, or added new keyboards.
Workaround: To remove the duplicate dictionaries, go to the definition dictionary list, swipe the dictionary, and tap the Delete button.
Simulator

Known Issue

Photos app in Simulator does not sync photos from iCloud Photo Library.
Wi-Fi

Known Issue

In a classroom environment with many iPad devices connected to a single access point, some devices may intermittently lose data connectivity with Classroom, other devices, and the Internet, even though the status bar shows that the device is connected to a Wi-Fi access point.
Workaround: Disable and then reenable Wi-Fi from Settings > Wi-Fi to resume connectivity. Note that for a Shared iPad, you may need to reboot the affected device.

I'm kinda tempted to jump onto this because of curiosity. Can I still sign up for the public beta program and get it?

Some other reports mention that it's still there.

Edit my mistake the Animation bug still works just took a while but still works, wish apple would make it official feature on ios

 

[vertsix]

Not sure if anyone has noticed it but there's this bug that has been on iOS 9 since it was released where third-party apps take a long time to send messages with Assistive Touch on.

I know, it sounds strange, but try it out yourself. Simply activate Assistive Touch and use a third-party messaging app such as Hangouts or Kik, and send a message and take a note of how long it takes with and without Assistive Touch on.
