Apple Seeds Second Betas of iOS 13.1 and iPadOS 13.1 to Developers [Update: Public Beta Available]

A document that literally says “probably fake” in the title of the article???? A document that was just proven wrong today when they released another beta, so the build numbers are completely wrong? Well played.

How dare you question Doctor Apple. They've got their PHD in iOS strategy.

Unless they are a medical doctor, then question away.
 
No, iOS 13.0 will be the one Apple will release with new iPhones and likely the GM next tuesday. iOS 13.1 will be available maybe in the next months. So those of you that went and update your iOS from 13.0 beta 8 to iOS 13.1 will have to downgrade next tuesday to GM iOS 13 if you want to have a stable version. My concern is what will happen with Watch OS, can the most recent beta version of WatchOS work with the final version of iOS 13.0? Else will be a problem

I’m not sure how they’d release an iOS 13 GM next week if the public betas have all been moved up to 13.1 as well and no new iOS 13 betas have been released.
 
Oh and magically all those crashes will go away upon release?
And here, my friend, I always thought betas would get better each release....
Not always, because with solving one issue others can appear that were unexpected. It's not a linear path. It gets better long-term, but not always beta to beta. That's a fact of software development of any kind.
 
I think Apple have basically written off 13.0 , I would imagine that we would of had a continued 13.0 beta path if it was to continue. To myself (and maybe only myself ) it would make sense that new devices will ship with 13.0 however after the reveal only the 13.1 GM will be what’s released to public. I’m ok with being wrong but why stop the beta if it was gonna to be put out as a GM?

Installed! iPadOS and iOS 13.1b2 are both working smoothly and fine for me in first 30 mins or so on an iPhone X and an iPad Pro 11.

One of my reported bugs on the iPad dock is fixed....Files previews with a long-press where displayed behind the dock are now properly displayed in front of dock and fully visible. Also, all long-presses on the iPad dock now work fluently without the icon fully or momentarily disappearing.

Also, the “share sheet” for frequently sent email and text contacts is back as someone above also said.

My thinking is the next release is a 13.1 Golden Master next week. I would be surprised if they release 13.0b8 as production as it was more rougher around the edges in my experience then what we have now. Also, maybe 13.1 has secret stuff in it for the new hardware? We will know everything very soon!
 
Mail is still a mess. Replied to an exchange mail. Noticed the mail I replied to was gone. Found it in the trash. Tried to move it out of the trash but it wouldn’t let me do so unless I put it in a sub folder of the inbox.

Inbox mail list keeps jumping around - mail is there, then disappears, then comes back.
 
I wonder when will they improve the iPadOS Files app to support transferring Video Files over 4GB. At least it's still an issue on SD cards and ExFAT formatted hard drives. Also none of my 4K videos shot on my Sony a6400 was able to be transferred directly from SD card to the Files app.
I had to upload them to iCloud Drive then download them via Files App as a work around...
 
How is CarPlay working in iOS 13.1b2? I updated to b1 and it totally made CarPlay unusable about the time Acura FINALLY released a fix for the other issues their infotainment was having. I'd love to start being able to use it again.

No, my friend. Beta are for developers and public beta testers to test the iOS versions and to send Apple the crash reports automatically and manually; hence a beta is a beta. The hope is with lots of testers, it will get better in time.

That my be a device to device problem, I've noticed no problems in 13.1b1 in my Volt

I never had any CarPlay issues on my 2018 Ford Focus. For me, iOS 13.1b1 works quite good in that domain.
What issues do you have?

Too early for iOS 13.1GM. In the pipeline is iOS 13.0GM.

I try and navigate and it freezes up the entire CarPlay interface. It will go black (I'm assuming it's crashing and restarting) and then come back up. This better not be Acura related or I'll be pissed. It was working really well during the iOS 13 beta.

On a side note: do you also get an intermittent error from the Acura UI when connecting, asking you to always disable or try again next time? It works again when you disconnect and reconnect, but it's so annoying and technologically silly that it happens so frequently. I've always wondered if others are also experiencing the same problem and if they were able to figure out a solution.

I have had that problem but it honestly had gone away for the most part. Did your car receive an over-the-air update in the last week or two? My 2019 RDX received one recently.
