I might give it a try once PB3 drops
Mine showed the Apple Watch MAC address in Bluetooth and said it was an unknown device
Even restarts of both devices did not fix this
:-(
Got a tip for us?

I do, but I only run this on my iPad Pro 9.7" and mostly at home. I'm running the Public Beta 2 now and it's been slightly better than the 1st one, but not much. And definitely worse in some other areas that were previously not bad.

New icons for the Contacts, Notes and Reminders apps:

Thank you so much! This will come in really handy this evening while I set it back up.
Wait what? Are you serious? It is still in the settings to turn on and off, just doesn't do anything.
Alright. I’m not one to scrutinize icon design like a hawk, but they clearly made the Reminders change for the hell of it lol.

Been averaging about 2 days of use and a week standby, oh and Safari is snappier!
Speak for yourself, I average needing a ful charge by 3PM and am at 5% by the end of the night. Battery in settings has been no help either.
Edit: Battery life is so bad, I am not even allowed to add the extra "L" to the word full
Not really related to this beta but it still frustrates me that WiFi is a requirement to download the incremental update on my iPhone and yet my iPad tethered to my iPhone - still not technically wifi and it knows that it is tethered rather than true wifi as you get the different icon in the status bar - will download it quite happily despite using the same 4G data connection that it won’t let me use on the phone.
I know these updates are large and if you’ve only got a small data plan then they could chew through it quite quickly but why not show a warning and second confirmation rather than preventing it outright....

Swipe to close notifications is back! YES! (on iPad, at least)
EDIT: and iPhone!

I report most of my public beta issues.
Lately tho it seems the feedback tool deletes some submissions and of the ones that reach the Apple they seem jumbled up with incorrect date stamps.
It would be professional if Apple had a published known issues list that would allow testers to click the issue and then submit a the necessary subset of the normal questionnaire.
I think it's a bug because I've just seen a screenshot with contacts mirrored as well. iOS 11 mirrors the entire UI for languages that read from right to left. I assume that's what's going on with those icons at the moment too, thus I assume it's a bug.
I don’t always report every app crash as I’m assuming these will get picked up through the enhanced crash logging in the betas anyway but I do tend to log any visual oddities I’ve had like landscape keyboard in portrait orientation and a few others. 99.9% of everything I’ve logged through the years has been closed as duplicate but I like to log it anyway just in case.
I'll generally agree with exception given to the iOS 7 betas. there was a build where I literally couldn't send a text message.
