FWIW, this new beta is working great for me on iPhone X and iPad Mini 4! Zero issues. This by far is one of the smoothest iOS beta processes ever that I can remember. I hope this post doesn’t jinx it! Lol

P.S. Same for Mojave!

Oddly enough, I never look at it. Maybe once iOS 12 is public, then I’ll start using it. Always an issue with resets/inaccuracies or something during the beta process.

Just curious, you are not in Beta program? Or you do not want to participate in the beta program? You do know that the reason they have it, and the reason you should be in it, is to hunt for bugs, right?

Does it fix Settings and App Store freezing for many seconds upon initial launch?

It must, I never had that problem

I am in the beta program. However screen time isn't something that seems beneficial to me, so I don't test it. I know I use my phone a lot, so I don't need a program to tell me that.
 
I would love to be able to take the New Music Playlist Apple gives me in iTunes every Friday and save it for later. Right now, you have to manually go in and save each song or create your own playlist and tediously add each song to it. Otherwise, it disappears on the next Friday with a new list of songs.

Also, new UI indicators as to what is playing in Apple Music would be appreciated. If you click on the play button, there's nothing telling you which playlist is playing on that For You screen and I forget which one I clicked on! ha.
 
now i see it said:
There is only ONE feature I'm looking forward to in iOS 12 that could maybe coax me off of iOS 9—Stability and speed improvements over iOS 11 (I guess that's two).

Crossing my fingers (and definitely not messing around w a beta).

As someone who has been highly critical of iOS 11 and didn't even try it until this year, I think you're getting your wish. I've had precisely ONE buggy thing happen in the several days since I installed the latest beta. (An alarm caused another app to crash.)
 
Lotta betas for an iOS stabilization year. Hopefully that means fewer updates in the year to come, and that time can be spent on an iOS 13 redesign :)
 
This is my first time as a Public Beta tester that I plan to run through the official release.

How do I switch out of the Beta and in to regular, once it's officially released? Will it switch over on its own and should I remove the certificate once it's out?

I'm planning on doing a backup and restore when it's out, just to have everything nice and clean. Although, depending on how the new iPhone is, I might just upgrade.
 
I'm thinking that they will squeeze out one more Beta that way there will be 12 Betas to mark IOS 12

iOS 12 has officially broken the record for most betas of any version of iOS ever. Here's to hoping it's the most rock solid release since iOS 6!

Six versions later we might have a decent operating system again! I'm pumped for it!

Well all the bugs I reported against Screen Time are still present in this beta, all reported to a apple with videos. This is a headline feature so I can’t see how this can go forward in this state. I have 7 bugs filed against screen time, soon to be 8!

If it's like it was with iOS 11, then while enrolled you'll still get the update to iOS 12 notification, but it'll essentially just be the last DEV (maybe PB) build. Then you'd simply disenroll that device unless you wanted the next round of betas for 12.1.

The other thing you can do, would be to back up the device, and then install with the latest "from scratch".
 
I think I've installed 4 public betas in about a week time.

True, this is a good thing. Let's hope Apple won't go one step back again with iOS 13.
