Meant for the Air Pods Pro 2 ... (my original post now updated to reflect this).
Am glad 18.1 is working well for your traditional aid ... my 92yo mom is about to replace her 7yo ReSound (has MFi 1, with simplex streaming) with a BICROS, and is very much looking forward to the upgrade to duplex streaming.
I still have issues with touch screen on iPhone 16 Pro Max with latest beta. Also, besides the input lag there are some occasional freezes in apps just for scrolling. It is most frustrating part. You can tap on things and they work, but if you try to scroll it just doesn’t work until you restart an app.
I think it might be related to that issue which is several months old:

The AI is not very interesting. Last night as a test I asked Siri about pizza recommendations, and it just yielded some google results from Yelp, Reddit, etc.
Garbage.
Wow, what a devastating mess on WatchOS11! Shut the whole operation down, Outlook Calendar is using black text now 🙄
18.1 is US English only, additional English variants - UK, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa IIRC - will be in 18.2 in December.
Officially on 18.2 in December but we should get beta 18.2 in two weeks is my guess.
Can anyone please update on touch issues specifically regarding keyboard. I am on 16PM and since launch I am having touch issues when pressing alphabets and backspace in particular, it tends to not register the touch even after updating to iOS 18.0.1
Thank goodness, I briefly set my Siri language to English US to try it out but then of course it began spelling things the American way when dictating messages in the car and people kept correcting me 😅.
Swiftly changed it back and decided to wait.
Yeah it’s still a thing. Having issues typing out this reply. Everyone seems to think it’s screen protector related, however I’m not using a screen protector. I noticed that it’s a RAM issue. When I close out of other apps, I can then type again and clearing my cache helps.
I’ve persisted with US English on mine for now so I can have a play with the a.i. bits. Main issue I’ve had is that one of my most used recipe apps now gives me ingredient amounts in cups rather than grams so if I’m cooking and it’s not a recipe I know quite well I have to change back to Uk English until I’m done!
I’m hoping the 18.2 beta with UK English support will be out very shortly after the 18.1 proper release so I can change back full time.
Anyone have any issues installing iOS 18.1 beta 7 on an iPhone 15 Pro Max? It fails verification and gives me the error: “Unable to Verify Update. IOS 18.1 Beta 7 is temporarily unavailable. Try again later.”
I deleted the download and tried a second time. This also failed verification after downloading.

I did some more research on this. There’s a thread on similar difficulties with updating macOS Sequoia 15.1 Beta 7. There seems to be a consensus that this may be a problem with M3-based devices. Since the A17 Pro is essentially an M3 Junior, it’s quite possible the problem is with only those devices. Someone in the Mac thread said that Apple may have a fix by Wednesday or Thursday, so it might be best to just wait a couple of days to update.
