Anyone in Australia seeing the RCS toggle? I've been holding out for this feature for years - partner uses Android, and texting them just seems so clunky.
Got a tip for us?

I always do. I use Dev then switch to Public beta. Apple Watch is on public beta as well now.
I have to be honest, it doesn't feel anything like an early beta. All my apps work, phone is smooth, and everything works fine.
Enabling it for the user is, IMO, the best compromise.
The further we go, the more tech-savvy the population get, so enabling more flexibility is the right choice...

Does the send later feature work if the device is offline when the message should get delivered?
There’s nothing I like about it.
Everything is a downgrade. Even the calculator got worse.

UK, 15 pro max updated to developer beta 3.2 which became public beta:
- no transcription in Notes for voice messages (I couldn't see it in DB 2 and 3)
- no RCS although Three UK supports it
- no Recovered Album in Photos
any clues guys?

I always do the same as well. The only major glitches (which really aren't that bad) that I've had with DB3 are that the keyboard sometimes acts funny and autofills a word, but then adds whatever letter I was typing to the end. The other glitch is that sometimes my recent call history disappears. Restarting the phone fixes that. I would assume those glitches are still present in the PB. Otherwise it has been remarkably reliable for me.
there’s one thing I would really appreciate Apple add to an app. The countdown timer. I would love to see they add that it starts counting how long since it finished the countdown. There! A great idea and Apple can contact me how they’ll pay me ☺️
Whatever you say. If you don't care about others devices it shouldn't bother you since you don't have to use it, but here we are...
This is my thought process as well. I’m tempted to install it on my 15 Pro, but then I realize I’ll try it out for a day or two, and then I‘ll revert back to iOS 17.

The current beta does not seem to have any major glitches, judging from my personal experience and the lack of major online complaints. However, there is no guarantee that it will be a smooth ride all the way until iOS 18 is released to everybody in the autumn/fall. FWIW, I have it running right now on my main devices and my only possible complaint could be the battery life. Otherwise it is a great beta for my regular usage.
Yeah, it's the current "trend" for high school aged kids. This iMore Article reveals how they currently do it with the shortcuts app.
Yes, and that's pretty much how they have always done it
PB1 almost always has been equal to DB3 due to them waiting a few weeks after the initial dev betas come out
As of right now, I think the RCS toggle is only showing up for select carriers in the US and Canada
That may change though as we go through the betas and then eventually to the final release
That being said though, it'll be on your respective carrier to implement RCS; even here for me in the US, not all carriers support it still as of yet
Installed last night…I’ve been doing public beta for at least the past 6 or so releases. For me, this is the most solid first beta I have seen. Not one app has glitched. Battery life is the same. Beyond expectations. Granted, there aren’t really that many features yet. But still.
The sad truth is, given my lack of actual design skills, if I came up with tinted app icons, it likely would look very much like this current iteration. It looks like what a non-designer would do if they were “designing” in Word.Yeah, your just jealous that you didn't come up with it first...
Tried it on Mini 6, surprisingly stable so I gave the M4 a shot as well. For first PB very well done. Incremental but nice updates (widgets, CC). The bigger icons w/o the app name are nice and well overdue — but the spacing between apps is too large in the more spacious iPadOS design, making the grid more compact would be a better option
This is pretty much the same os customization is still basic the widgets
Should be scrollable but they are not. the only real feature they bringing is Ai to upgrade Siri. Siri have got a lil better but still needs major improvements also they focus to much on the visual aspect of the os entirely to much the functionality is the same to me
