Really a big improvement over public beta 1 on my iPad mini retina, but what do you think should I install it on my main iPhone 6s?
 
Why are you shocked? It was only introduced in this release and it's a beta.
I'm shocked it says there's moisture in my connector when I am sure there is not.
And how do you know "it" was just introduced with this beta?
 
2 of my 4 iPhone chargers are the ones that came with the iPhone, but they all say the exact same thing when I plug it in. I get the feature, but I feel like this is a bug.

this is a feature that was added in the latest beta...
the newest iPhone have a sensor near the connector... this sensor was not activated, at least not in the same way, with previous release.

that said, if yours is detecting moisture, there's some moisture in your phone or the sensor is broken
 
Definitely feels smoother. Glad the iPad now has its own screen difference in notification center as opposed to it looking like it's for the iPhone.

Still a bug when pressing delete, backspace and sometimes space on forums. :mad:
 
can someone test the Bank Of America app? Its the only reason i keep going back to iOS9, The BofA app crashes on opening with iOS10. thank you
 
Has anyone else been experiencing frequent dropouts in Bluetooth audio (particularly played via Spotify) on iOS 10 PB2? Wondering if it is a bug or a shift in functionality because of the message sending/receiving sound.

I am noticing the dropouts sometimes when using another application (such as sending/receiving messages through iMessages or viewing GIFs in the iMessage app drawer), but they also occur occasionally while I am not interacting with the phone. The dropouts were not previously present in the most recent 9.x.x PB. Additionally, the volume behavior when connected to an external Bluetooth speaker has changed in iOS 10 PB2 from what it previously was in the most recent 9.x.x PB.

Edit: Nope, the dropouts are pervasive everywhere. Virtually un-listenable when idle on the home screen. Anyone else?

BofA app is not working. Gets a bit further but still goes back to the app screen, though the app still shows in the ‘running app’ display as it did in beta 1
 
Not digging the lock screen UI/UX, nor Widgetpalooza. I either want it back to just rest a finger on the button, or a Setting to let me keep using it the way it's been working up to this point.
Are you talking about unlocking the device when you say "just to rest a finger on the button"?

If so, you can do exactly that and have it how it was in iOS 9. Go Settings> General> Accessibility> Home Button and toggle the "Rest Finger to Unlock" option.

They addressed my biggest issue by providing the ability to go back to a single touch to unlock the phone via Touch ID. Having to press the home button twice was a PITA!!!!
 
2 notable "bugs" from PB 2.

1. After expanding a notification there's either a delay or no response after tapping on then notification to open the related app.

2. Audio stops playing often.

Has anyone problem with apple watch notifications?My watch has 2.2.2 updated today my 6S to iOS 10 PB 2 and notifications not showing up on watch.....Any fix?
 
I’ve wondered about that too. If I did a ‘details’ on any particular new picture at first it would show no faces, but they would suddenly show up even though I am not connected to power, or locked. I thought it might be queuing up massive facial recognition runs on my 52K of pictures for every photo I even looked at.

Do you just have the iOS 10 beta on your idevices? Or also on your mac (which could then have the photos downloaded and run through all photos)? I just have the beta on my idevices (mac is too old to run sierra) and I have 87k pics, but it says it's only processed 12k of 13k "items". Not sure what "items" means and it seems as if it's maybe stalled as it hasn't moved the past few days. Or maybe its because it can only fit that many pics on my iphone with the remaining staying icloud?

Depends on your phone usage and need - if your phone gets locked or freezes during a call or some apps do not work - would that be in issue for you -if not go ahead. I have it run it on my iPad but not my phone.

You say this was in iOS 9, but I'm on 9.3.3 and it's not there?

1) only in beta iOS 10. As I understand it, there is no connection with the iOS and Mac, both just to iCloud.
2) I had stopped getting the processing window not the Photo’s People Album in 1, but in 2 it shows I still have 6.5K out of 52K to processes - number left to do is smaller but not by more than a thousand or so since I saw it last in beta 1 several days ago.

Obviously this needs to be thought out more, the phone seems to be engaging photo-related processes and they run for so long even after power or lock status has changed causing battery drain. You plug in the phone because of power loss, it self locks and suddenly you are having the photo processes re-engaging.

"Finding People" progress on my PB2 Mac keeps stalling(happened throughout PB1 as well). Sometimes if I restart it'll process a few more, but always ends up hanging again. The "People" feature on the phone is working fantastic however. I'm assuming that the faces found on the phone will synchronize with the ones on the mac since they're based on the same file. Makes me wonder why the Mac is working so hard when most of it's been done on the phone.
 
I am experiencing a very hot iPhone 6S on PB 2. Battery is shredding, dropped 20% in under 20 min. A bit more buggy then before. Hoping it settles down and is compiling in the background, or something :/

Always reset the device after a OS update.
Also let the battery run down to 0% and then charge it fully. Then observe the battery life after the phone is 100% charged.
