I can't seem to turn off auto brightness.

 

[MrGimper]

[Erdbeertorte]

Is this allowed to post? I don't care...

 

[enrilo]

Hello new icons!

 

[Antoni Nygaard]

Sync imessage over iCloud is not back in this beta

 

[MrGimper]

Is save messages to iCloud re implemented?

No, but then again the wording used before implied that it would reappear in a later version of iOS 11, not a later beta.

Hm. If I go to iCloud-->Backup, it's showing messages saved, and the last upload date is today. Anyone else seeing this? I can see per-contact when the messages were sync'd.

 

[BklynB3ast70]

That's it? 78 hours and counting here! Safari is so snappy it gave me whiplash too. Can't wait for the GM!

I knew it, I knew it- All hail iOS 11 ..

This is your device backup which includes iMessage data. iCloud Messages Sync is a new feature that syncs your messages to iCloud and across your devices.

Reminder app icon is back to normal. Phew

Overall solid beta so far. Seems like it did something with Watch as it restarted with phone after updating. I was getting bad battery usage on my Watch w DB6

 

[Sirious]

Is that new Maps icon containing a reference to the Apple Park?

Sorry, I meant under "Manage Storage", not inside of an iCloud backup. Is this how it's always been? The blurb specifically talks about iMessage in the cloud.

Oooh. Not sure how I feel about that new App Store icon! Not that my opinion of it matters one ounce.

 

[Delorean2006]

Just installed, absolutely love how fast the phone unlocks now.

Is that new Maps icon containing a reference to the Apple Park?

Yeah it is. Here is the actual map of that icon.

Ah. Perhaps a remnant from a previous beta? I don't see that on mine but I'm currently on 10.3.3 and updating to b6 shortly.

I thought so too, but I am seeing sync dates of today.

 

[Robert.Walter]

First for “PB, too, today! Pretty please!”

Be patient grasshopper... Tomorrow...

I got 2x the battery life in iOS 11 Developer Beta 7.

If Apple Maps has improved it may be time to get Google Maps off my phone...

 

[DaveMcM76]

New icons for Maps and the App Store.

Now if they just need to do something about the monstrosity that is the Calculator icon... it is hideous!
