Apple Seeds Second Beta of iOS 12 to Developers

[Danbas]

Does group FaceTime work on older devices eg iPhone 6 on beta 2?

 

[Treble]

Yep new profile needed to install beta 2 now sorted

 

[GregJohn]

No beta update even after a reboot hmm

 

[cmaier]

So far I’m pleased. Some bad issues with siri shortcuts seem to be fixed (for now - last time they worked for awhile, too, before dying). Speed seems even faster on an iPhone X - launching the settings.app was so fast that I gasped, and I never notice these things.

Never seen that alert before. iMessage –– yes, iCloud –– no.

Interested to see if all apps that use Webview are still broken.

Go install the beta profile from today's upload. That seems to fix it.

gps issues resolved?

None of my apps that use UIWebView or WKWebView were broken on beta 1. And they all seem to work on beta 2.

Is “time since last full charge” back in the battery usage section?

 

[KazuSnow]

“CarPlay might not connect to certain vehicles.”
And I won’t be jumping in on this beta either. Unless someone says it works on Pioneer head units.

it works on Pioneer head units

GPS bug not getting a lock - on the X has not been fixed.

Just hit my Iphone 7 here in Mobile, AL

There seems to be a stronger haptic feedback while using Touch ID, and it vibrates on unlock. The home button doesn’t need to be pressed to open the phone anymore, and instead opens if the finger is on the sensor.

Has always been like this. It’s in the settings.

Release notes say no. It still says this: "iPod touch (6th generation), iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3, and iPad Air support only audio (no video) during Group FaceTime calls in iOS 12 beta."

This is just a fun chart...

I’ve used that chart so many times when I got impatient about releases...

Wouldn’t it be cool if MacRumors did their own version tracking of all the releases - like the excellent Buyers Guide tracker ?

Any benchmarks done with this yet?

 

[jackietreeh0rn]

So soon, you think?

*first thing after update, I opened the app and noticed the same thing lol

So far this beta seems so much better and faster. No issues with calls, messages (AT&T, iPhone X), and stuff that was broken seems to be fixed now. Nice job, Apple...

"There are multiple known issues in the second developer beta of iOS 12"
I think I will skip this and wait for BETA 3 - it seems like a major regression and my Ipad PRO it's working great with the current beta.

 

[Mrjynx]

the home button vibrating when unlocking is kind of annoying, but i'm sure i'll get used to it. couldn't see an option to turn off either in touchID or sound/haptics.

 

[ovo6]

They added a new profile I guess they know people where using it illegally

 

[chrisdazzo]

Weird bug when changing settings in a Phone menu sub-section, after getting back to Phone menu the available options duplicate 5-6x down the screen.

Will file a bug when I can duplicate and document the behavior...

 

[Janschi]

Hopefully this update fixed the GPS bug on the X

Had that on my 7+ too

 

[H3LL5P4WN]

here you go

That's trivial in the grand scheme of things, but it would drive me absolutely bonkers. How could they a) break that and b) not notice it?
