Is it just me or is the latest beta just ridiculously buttery smooth? Seems like a big improvement on my iPhone X!
I like in general MacRumors articles, but there is one thing that irritates me a lot. I really don't like when they put the same old video in all new articles.
Why should I watch again and again the same video every time there is a new iOS beta version? some features are even deleted!!! If you are too lazy to make a new video for every beta (like other more diligent YouTubers do all the time) at least put only the link to the original article where the first video about the new major version of iOS was published! it's a more serious approach, it looks to me you just want to impress readers with garbage.
I really hate the time I waste every time I click the video, watch it for a while to discover that I saw it already several times in the past.

They should have taken care of FaceTime Group calls instead of stupid Memoji. I really think that it's absurd to use memoji in FaceTime calls.
Another excellent beta. Whoever forced the change in philosophy over there deserves serious kudos.
it was a good joke, it was about the number of betas, not the quality. iOS 12 is looking good, I think nobody can say the opposite , however iOS11 betas were also "good" and....
I don't use it. I don't like the idea of being told by a phone when I can and when I can not use it.
Im not currently having it tell me to stop using anything or setting restrictions on any of my apps. It is interesting to get a weekly summary showing a breakdown of what your useage and screen time is like though.
I do try to use my device less nowadays.
I’ll play, because there are still some significant bugs in the UI.

My SE, 7, and pro 10.5 seem smoother with this update. Really happy that apps load faster and the OS overall feels more responsive.
What the heck have you been doing here for the past 7 years?

There is a high chance that nobody is reading those.
Have you ever got anything in your inbox? Feedback app might be somewhat usable, but inbox function of that app is just waste of time and space.
I'd suggest you're not the target audience though, parents are. Although I do wish they had used the ask to buy API, rather than the old restrictions one. Beyond the fact that restricting to a 4-digit PIN is nuts, not allowing TouchID on granting requests for more time is just very un-Apple in terms of user experience.
Really? When I open the music app and go to my downloaded songs, the only options I have from clicking sort in the top right hand corner is “Title” or “Artist”, no option for recently added.
Jumped from 11.4 to 12 PB 9 and the whole UI on my X is much more responsive. Everything feels silky smooth, iOS 12 so far is a gigantic improvement over iOS 11.
Apps seem to launch faster and even spotlight search seems a little faster to find results. So far I'm extremely happy with 12 and will be using it as my daily driver until the GM which can't be far now.
I hopped on the beta back during PB2 and had some issues with my iPP12.9 v2. Quickly dropped off and got back on (iPP and X) just before the update yesterday. As many have said, this ‘feels’ like a solid release now and I haven’t had any issues (so far) but a day out in London today and lots of photos, WhatsApp messaging etc. will tell. Looks positive though!
iOS 12 is the best iOS version to date. I don’t even realize that it’s still in beta. I’ts damn smooth and haven’t countered any issues yet in the last 2 betas.
This repeat occurrence in beta 11 (which I too have had both here and in the last beta) adds further weight to my hypothesis that Apple’s beta program isn’t designed to handle this many builds in a beta cycle. Maybe there’s an opportunity here for Apple to apply the fixes over features philosophy used so well in iOS 12 to the general beta program...
Even iOS versions (2,4,6,8,10,12) are good. Odd versions (3,5,7,9,11) are pure, complete, utter and absolute garbage.
That’s partly why I updated to iOS 12 on my iPad Pro. Because iOS 11 was apparently so bloated that notability kept crashing on my iPad when mirrored to the Apple TV. iOS 12 public beta one solved this issue, and I have stuck with it ever since.
I’ve had this before, years ago. Turned out something in the privacy settings for Contacts had got changed so iMessage couldn’t access them any more. I can’t see an immediately obvious setting in Settings>Privacy>Contacts or Settings>Contacts any more, but you may want to toggle some of these and see if that helps.
I had a pop up on my screen saying ios12 is now live and to update from the beta. Removed the beta profile, checked for updates and nothing. I think I got this pop up early. Due to this im going with you that it is the last beta.

I got the same pop up! Think we got it early
