Apple Releases First Beta of iOS 13.1 to Developers

What about the part where 13 beta 8 is still listed on developer.apple.com lol
There's only one developer beta profile for all versions of iOS.
iPadOS keyboard gets wonky when in landscape mode. Seen some issues with orientation in general but other than that things seem ok. Not sure how I feel about updating day 1 since things have been a little sloppy during the betas.
If we are being honest, Dark Mode and Swipe keyboard are the big highlights and swipe keyboard is half ass implemented on iPadOS so not even sure things are worthwhile.
Microsoft Office, incidentally. Office for Windows went from 2007 (12.0) to 2010 (14.0), and for Mac from 2008 (12.0) to 2011 (14.0).
Likewise, I believe Visual Studio 2013 was version 12. Visual Studio 2015, which was the next version, was version 14.
Conversely, Microsoft SQL Server 2016 was version 13… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
But no, Apple is not going to skip iOS 13.0.
I’ve reported them, too.
The persistent dock bugs are bewildering. Either the iOS developers at Apple don’t use their devices, or these bugs are so deeply rooted in the OS they can’t figure out how to remove them.
You still haven’t told me whether you will eat your hat?
Hospitals too. The hospital I've worked at the past 16 weeks for my internship doesn't have a 13th floor. Skips to 14. I think this superstition is dying out though.
‘I only use my iPad in landscape, unless I’m playing a game that requires portrait. Thankfully I haven’t experienced any of the keyboard issues. I’ve never tried using swipe. The dark mode toggle would freeze in settings but that was resolved for me since public beta 3.
The iOS 12 betas were solid and blew away iOS 11 from the start. I have stayed out of the game with the iOS 13 betas and do not regret it. I will need to see some evidence that iOS 13 is solid when it is officially released before considering making the upgrade. Something is fishy with this cycle.
That’s what happens for nearly every single software release. It’s how software development works. If it didn’t work this way, developers would go nuts.
Xcode beta ≠ iOS beta
And that very screenshot says "intended for use with iOS 13 and 13.1 beta". Note that "13" doesn't mention "beta". So it strongly suggests that 13 is close to final, and that there will be such a thing as a 13 final.
Quick question...
What's the obsession with dark mode?
I remember when Android (ICS and earlier) had dark backgrounds for everything and a lot of the themes available at the time were to make it look more iOS like by having lighter colours. Then we had Android switching to the lighter backgrounds everywhere (including a very iOS looking keyboard). Now we have iOS moving to the ICS style dark backgrounds.
Mind you, I've got a cheap tablet with OREO on it and I would like it to look more like ICS and less like iOS.
