Are lock screen widgets limited to Apple apps? I'd like to have one for WeatherBug.

during the beta period, yeah. typically apple doesnt accept apps designed for new OS's until right before the final ship date.
 
This has got to be one of the most solid betas ive tried. For iPad at least. Only issues I'm running into are cellular doesn't work and external display issues. Other than that I notice a significant improvement in snappiness and less crashing due to software support for the extra ram I have(16gb).
Cellular doesn’t work at all?

Anyone else seeing this?
 
PB1 was super stable for me, PB2 not so much. Lots of crashes and pages not loading in certain apps. I know that’s more on the app developer end but still.
 
Dumped the previous Beta on my 12 as every minute my audio would cutout on my BT Melomania earbuds - hopefully someone might mention if this is fixed.

Seeing the same thing in NJ. Anyone know why this is an issue only for this particular set of apps? I heard it might have to do with the apps not being able to validate the the iOS version, but again, why is this just a problem for sports gaming apps?

Answer is almost always regulations, shoddy coding, or both. Probably a common back-end verification system that hasn't been updated.

My phone crash while booting (stuck on apple logo) - went back to iOS 15, restored from backup and now I'm trying install BP 2 again. Hope it works
 
Ok every time I type "this" it autocorrects to thi's. I have no idea why and it's doing it since I went to PB2.

Checked text replacement in settings.

Anyone else seeing this? Anyone know why this is suddenly happening? I'm seeing it in Messages and Notes.

mine is fine. I do not see that happening.
 
No problem with "this" autocorrect for me.

Anyone else having issues with Mail notifications? The badge count doesn’t update normally, and Unread messages don’t show as such in the app unless I completely close it out, then re-open it. I’ve filed a feedback submission.

PB2 - Notes works fine for me, but Siri seems to have completely stopped doing anything. I can't use Siri for dictation or adding things to Reminders or controlling HomeKit devices anymore... Anybody else?

Same for me. I could deal with it but I’ve had various things crash multiple times already.

It loads Google searches but you can't actually open the page. And you can't open any website. It gives a connection error. I have a full 5g connection and it's still not working. Contacted Apple support they told me they can't help with betas
 
Battery life seems back to normal. I noticed my 13 Pro Max suddenly didn't have great battery life anymore after installing the first beta, but now it's back.

Annoyingly the Google keyboard is still freezing and crashing constantly. I hate the default keyboard! Even as I type this, it froze and I had to switch away from it.

Every year I ignore the warnings about not installing the beta on my primary devices. I forget the past pain, and run into some new bug that makes everything annoying. Next year, I'll finally have the self control to just wait...
