I took the beta profile off and then an update showed up at 1.7 gigs. Haven't updated yet since I want to do a full restore on iTunes, but no full update yet. It says resource not available. Maybe later.........
you can cheat and enable it with siri

Interesting: historically, I usually cable the iPad to my Mac and do these updates via iTunes. I figure a wired download will be faster than a wifi download. However, at least with this one, iTunes could not see this update. But iPad via wifi could see it. Priority for updating on device vs. through iTunes? Or just one instance?
I share the same frustration. People have claimed it effects battery life but I find that to be a load of BS. If it does it had to be such a small amount it shouldn't make a difference.
In beta 7 you could turn on Night Shift in low power mode via Siri; it also works on 9.3 GM!
Well, same thing could be said about other things that Low Power Mode disables or changes--people can call BS on that too because they want something to remain enabled or set to what they want it to have.
I'm pretty stoked about this update because I have problems with reading my phone before bed and having trouble falling asleep right away. I'm also curious about the WiFi calling on Verizon. How does that work—is it just automatic if you don't have a signal or what? Could one turn off cellular for the day to save battery and only use WiFi for everything while at work? I'm glad there are more 3D Touch quick actions but I hope Apple takes it to another level in iOS X as I don't use 3D Touch very often aside from text selection and some occasional peeking. The multitasking edge gesture is often too tricky to activate—I mean, for a shortcut it should work faster than double tapping right? In the past I changed the sensitivity for 3D Touch but I didn't like that it changed it across the board. While it was easier to activate multitasking, everything else was super sensitive and I would accidentally activate it. So hopefully they've tweaked that. I'd also like the capability to customize my Control Center. I feel like it's getting too cluttered with this new control, and the toggle itself doesn't fit in at the bottom with what are essentially app shortcuts. And yes, flashlight is essentially a headless app.
