Apple Seeds Fifth iOS 9.1 Beta to Developers and Public Beta Testers

[phalanges]

Safari is definitely faster

But does faster = snapper?

I'm a public beta tester but the build number is 13B137 not 13B5137.

And with a large file update, they didn't even fix the ellipsis on emoji keyboard.

How many dots do you need? ;-)

Wut??? I don't need any dots. It's because it shows this when you press it.

LOL. 😀

 

[Shirasaki]

Oh, copy.

Ok. A bug.

By the way, settings airplane mode position bug is not fixed, yet.

Not for me, but more often than not I've pressed . three times before I think about an emoji.

What is the bug? Mine seems to work perfectly.

Are you all developers here? Why are so many people on this forum installing these beta releases? Are you all reporting bugs to Apple?

Because there are public betas as well?

Yeah, I understand how you can download them, but why? Why bother downloading an update that does not change anything, that can potentially cause things to break and takes up a lot of resources (including bandwidth and time). There are valid reasons though: beta testing an app, helping Apple in reporting bugs, looking if something you reported earlier has been fixed, ... Just curious what the motivation is here.

Updated and seems to be running smooth for me. My biggest test always being how quickly the SwiftKey keyboard pops up. Both it and safari seem good after update.

So SwiftKey pops up faster in 9.1 compared to previous iOS versions?
Is the problem gone where the SwiftKey keyboard is not always loading in Messages.app, requiring the app to be relaunched to fix it?

 

[Soylent Yellow]

Yeah, I understand how you can download them, but why?

Because I reported a couple of bugs over the years in final releases, that take ages to fix. Better to find those in the betas, and have them fixed in the final release.

When Emojis are features in a changelog it means something is terribly wrong.

https://developer.apple.com/library...9.1/index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40016570

I guess you can sleep easy, they're not. MacRumors mentioned them in the article.

They might be mentioned in the public release notes as it is a change. Nothing wrong with that, they're used quite a lot.

Yes

The iPad Pro ships with two accessories, the Smart Keyboard and the Apple Pencil

I thought they were optional items that you had to purchase.

Yeah no way it comes with it

It's seperate

Hi folks - I'm a public beta tester (my wife loves it when I 'brag' about being a beta tester - she's always like, "You are??!!"

Anyway, is anybody else having Spotlight problems? Every build, I swipe left and often I do get options, BUT the search is bad. It just waits and waits and wait. I usually have to go straight to Safari or Chrome to actually search. I've modified my Spotlight preferences so that it'll only search the most important apps. I have a lot of contacts and 7 email addresses being fetched. Overall, I love 9.1, but I'm not loving Spotlight not working consistently enough. Help!

I hope you as a public beta tester are reporting bugs you encounter. And I mean to Apple, not here on the forums…

For me this update fixed the insane battery drain on my old 4s.
When I turned on the 3G I had battery life for like 5-6 minutes and then the phone would shut down.
Now it's running back to normal.

One thing is for sure - I will never jump on beta train again.
Lesson learned 🙂

These will be the last beta test for me on everything: phone, ipad, mac. (9.1 and 10.11.1)

Screw betas - I have a life! I am not a developer - I don't know where my brain was.

Stupid excitement!
I need to change my phone not install betas on it. 🙂) They will not make old HW behave like new...

Issue with Telstra it seems - lots of people with the same issue over at Whirlpool.

I just spoke with Telstra who informed me that because I am on a 12 month trial I am not a "premium" member so I don't get to download my songs for offline play. I don't think this is true as everything else is working perfectly fine and how it was whilst I was on an apple 3 month trial.

that may be a ''GM Seed'' as you can see on the picture, they updated the ''beta 2 to beta 4 api diffs'' to ''GM seed api diffs'' but they didn't update the changelog yet 🙂

final version is imminent..i think next week..

 

[nevesis]

Does this allow me the option to remove the stupid icons on the left side of messages?

 

[Danwagon]

If I deleted the beta profiles, then why do I still get beta updates? I went and unregistered the devices on the apple beta page too. Any help?
