Hi, Anyone with the M4 13” Ipad pro get a display not genuine issue after updating to 18 beta 7. I got one after I installed it and then restarted the ipad again and it went away. Just making sure its not the ipad going bad. View attachment 2407775
I get that occasionally on my 13 inch M4 iPad but yeah it goes away it is known issue but they have not fixed it apparently I am on ipadOS 18.1 myself and have seen it in those betas in my experience.

Ahhh okay. Thank you. Glad to know it’s a bug. I did report it myself so hopefully there is a bug sooner or later.
 
The beta is already installed on my side, and there's an annoying bug that won't go away from the start on both iPadOS and iOS. Attention BIG problem: in the springboard customization menu, when persistent dark mode is activated, the icons darken, as does the wallpaper. However, when dark mode is left on automatic, only the icons darken, but not the wallpaper. This offends my manic side.

Thank you for reading my complaint.

Apparently the little sun icon in the left corner of that settings menu allows you to toggle wallpaper tint, so it isn’t a bug.

I'm still not getting the developer push. Never happens to me unless there is a reason. I bet it has something to do with installing 18.1 a few weeks ago that was just for the 15 Pro's. I am on 22B5023e from last week and not getting today's release.
 
Lost the dark mode icons on iOS 😤 Anybody know how to get them back? (iPadOS still has them)
 


Apple today seeded the seventh betas of upcoming iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 updates to developers for testing purposes, with the software coming a week after the release of the sixth betas.

Registered developers are able to opt into the betas by opening up the Settings app, going to the Software Update section, tapping on the "Beta Updates" option, and toggling on the ‌iOS 18/iPadOS 18‌ Developer Beta setting. Note that an Apple ID associated with a developer account is required to download and install the beta. The iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 beta track is now separate from the iOS 18.1 and iPadOS 18.1 beta track, with the .1 betas adding support for Apple Intelligence on devices that are able to run the features.

iOS 18 introduces Apple Intelligence, a set of AI features that are built deeply into the operating system. Apple Intelligence won't be coming until later in the beta testing process, but it includes features for refining and editing writing, generating images and emoji, and most notably, improving Siri and search. Siri is gaining a better understanding of natural language, improved contextual awareness, and the personal assistant will integrate with ChatGPT to answer more complex queries.

Apple Intelligence features are limited to the iPhone 15 Pro models and iPads with an M-series chip, but there are a number of other features that are coming. Apple is allowing users to rearrange Home screen apps to have open spaces, plus there's a dark mode for app icons and tinting options.

The Control Center is customizable and third-party developers can add controls for their apps, with the Lock Screen Flashlight and Camera icons able to be replaced or removed. Messages is gaining Rich Communication Services support to improve conversations with Android users, the option to schedule texts to be sent later, new text effects, messages over satellite when there's no cellular, and the option to use any emoji for Tapback responses.

There's a dedicated Passwords app for logins, passkeys, Wi-Fi passwords, and verification codes, and there's now an option to lock and hide apps, which means they can't be opened without secondary Face ID or Touch ID authentication even when your phone is unlocked.

Safari has a highlights feature that summarizes articles and surfaces key information on websites, the Photos app interface has been overhauled, and there's a new Tap to Cash feature for privately and securely transferring money using Apple Cash. Other features include equation solving and voice memo transcription in Notes, a game mode for improving game performance, and an option to respond to Siri on AirPods with head gestures.

Apple will release iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 to the public this fall.

Thanks! How soon after that, historically, should we expect iPhone preorders to go live? My memory is terrible (it’s a medical condition!) but I’m working on saving up for my incremental upgrade so I’d love to know how much time I might be working with ;)
The announcement is always on a Tuesday, which is the 10th. Pretty much order will be the following Friday the 13th and usually pick up in store or home delivery on the next Friday the 20th, sometimes if it’s a new item or a completely redesigned item, two weeks, so the 27th.

Fantastic, thank you!
