I've had it on my iPad and iPhone since about Beta 3 I think and The only complaint I have is the Firefox Search widget crashes when you click it, but then opens when you click it again.
Got a tip for us?

Apple Releases New Public Betas of iOS 15 and iPadOS 15

I have had the public beta installed on my main iPad and iPhone since the beginning and I have had very few issues. I think it’s been very smooth.
Similar behaviour with iPad. Tried several reboots followed by rebooting router. 10 minutes later iPad had regained internet connection without me doing anything else.
Try a network settings re-set. Just be aware that it will delete all your saved wifi passwords though, so you'll have to re-enter them after.
I got it working now. I tried router reboot, although the phone didn't work on cellular either. Tried to reset network settings. I finally did like a hard reboot. Tap volume up, then down and then hold lock button. Phone rebooted, and now I'm back in business. Not sure any of that was necessary. Maybe it came back on its own, like for you. I will say my iPad didn't have any issues at all.
Is anyone getting “Unable to load remote content privately” in mail. It started last public beta and still saying the same thing after updating to this new beta version.
Its probably the new Israeli backdoor that Apple will add to protect children. You dont hate children... do YOU?
Internet is back to not working on iPhone 12 Pro. Don't know what is going on here. Very frustrating.
It's a tough question to answer as there are so may variations (what model iPad, what apps you use etc.) so if you have crucial needs (apps), I wouldn't suggest it. As for me, I'm on the 2020 iPad Air 4 with several apps that I use heavily and I have not had any issues to report. YMMV
I like the large icons (and was glad to see the option) The icons/home screen doesn't look cramped to me, but that may just be me. The weird part is that with large or small icons, there are more icons on my screens (30 icons instead of 24) than the previous beta.
I think it is a VPN issue. I have AT&T for a cell provider, and I have their Call Protect and Mobile Security apps installed. Mobile Security has a VPN feature that my phone flashed at the top right that it was enabled. Go into iPhone settings and turn off VPN, and everything works fine. Turn VPN back on and things go to crap.
edit: I just deleted the AT&T Mobile Security app off my phone. It says it only enables VPN when you connect to an unsecure WiFi router. I've noticed that the app says I'm connected to a secure WiFi router(mine), but it still always enables the VPN. I never connect to unsecure routers, and I don't really see a benefit to anything with the app. So, just got rid of it.

The public betas have been pretty stable in my experience. I sometimes load them on my iPad, rather than my iPhone, since it doesn’t quite qualify as a daily driver.
If you pay for iCloud storage and enable iCloud+ private relay you’ll get the best parts of the vpn app you deleted without the AT&T overhead.
Anyone else having an issue with podcasts not downloading? I was hoping this update would fix it but it hasn't. I hope it's just a beta issue and not my iPhone 11.
I noticed the new feature where it converted into text stopped working on the latest beta. Is there a way to enable it? 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼
Previously, before the latest Beta, the default Large Icon Home Screen was 5 x 4 icons = 20 (landscape,without Widgets).

Really hoping for denser icon spacing with widgets but not holding my breath. When no widgets are on a home screen I have 5 rows by 6 columns in landscape icon layout but the moment that a widget is placed on a home screen page that page goes to 4 rows of 6 icons. The wasted space is unfortunate.
So is anyone else having issues using Siri with their AirPods? This entire beta series has turned her into a blithering idiot. I can’t even get her to switch modes on my AirPod Pro’s. “Siri: turn on transparency.”
“I’m sorry, there’s a problem.”
“Siri: Turn on noise cancellation.”
“Hmmm… I can’t do that right now.”
WTH?

Cannot send pictures in iMessage (blue balloons) and neither in MMS mode (green balloons) on iPhone 12 Pro.

I still have iOS 15 on my iPad but removed it from my iPhone because I found the 4G/WiFi would only work 20% of the time, I tried turning off Private Relay but still no web pages would load. I then went back down to iOS 14 and they all work perfectly... Other than that and getting used to the new Safari I thought this new iOS is fantastic!
I've never even thought about using Siri with my AirPods, I just press the stem to switch modes
