Can you support that? Seems a lot of people and reviewers dislike the new approach, especially since it isn't obvious what it does and is now different than it ever was previously.
I'd wager that the average user has no idea that toggling those in CC doesn't actually turn them off.
Of course, Apple could just make it so you can do both (such as tap for disconnect, long press for disable)...
... but then Apple would have to spend more than 30 seconds thinking about their implementations.
Even better would be iMessage web based through icloud. Even better than that iMessage on Android as well. (yes I know never going to happen but would be nice to be able to say goodbye to whatsapp.
Perhaps you should submit your resume to Apple and save the company. I heard there was an engineering position that recently opened up.
You can turn off the ask to join and solve your 1st issue with the popups. And you are not "forced" to do anything as you can still turn off wifi and BT any time you want from the settings app. And if you have 3D touch enabled device even quicker than the CC using 3D touch.
You can see the data if you read through the many iOS 11 x threads here on this topic. Including several good posts as to why this behavior is better than the old way.
Tim Cook said “We need to double-down on the calculator bug. I want to see three times as much effort.”
I would wager that the "average" user probably never turns off wifi and BT at all and if they do never use CC to do so. Most of my friends never go into CC for anything,(or settings either for that matter), BUT if they did, it does state "disconnect from xxxxx" not "Turning off xxxx" which is exactly what its doing.
Nice! I hope iCloud messages and Apple Pay cash are included in this version. I may just wait for the public release of 11.1 until I get the X on Friday.
The worst isn’t when you have multiple devices and this more of your space is eaten up by backups. They should allot free iCloud space based on what devices you own; e.g. for every 10 Gigs, you get 1 Gig of iCloud.
Yep. I have 100 MB with Google simply because I have a Chromebook that isn't even a Google-brand Chromebook. For those of us who've paid what the Apple-haters call the "Apple tax" (and done so quite willingly, I would add), 1 GB per device isn't too much to ask.
You’re really funny. The clocks went back 1hr on Sunday, except for you?

US and EU DST switching don’t happen the same week, so some weeks in the year, the differences between European and US timezones are off.
So you think Apple's design decisions are all just grand? They've been on a roll with dismal UI changes.
I just gave an obvious fix so everyone would be happy. What's your fault with it?

When you disable wifi/BT, you're also disconnecting... so that really doesn't clear it up, especially for the typical user who isn't too clear on the details.
They changed how something works and hardly made it clear that it suddenly operates in a very different and less intuitive way. It should be clearer or better yet, offer the ability to do both so everyone's happy.
There's something funny in all of that, just not quite where you think it is.
I think this developer preview is same to iOS 11.1 final release we will see tomorrow or later this week, I don’t think Apple will delay calcuator fix until 11.2. Every thing fixed in this update will be there in iOS 11.1
But calculator bug is very annoying and can’t wait until 11.2, thats why I thought they will add it to 11.1 too.
Join the public beta program and install 11.2, or install a free calculator app in the meantime until 11.2 is officially released the end of November/beginning of December.
