Apple Seeds Sixth Beta of iOS 11 to Developers [Update: Public Beta Too]

[macduke]

I always liked that the App Store icon focused on creativity. Seems like this change is a commentary on the wider appeal of Apple products and how many creative pro users who have been around for many years and decades feel like outsiders lately.

The App Store icon looks like a pile of sticks. I like the new Maps icon though.

They finally removed the ugly app tray in Messages!!! God I hated that thing.

Edit: the icon toggles it on and off globally. So if you tap the icon to open it will be in the tray format on other messages. Tap to disable.

Horrendous new App Store icon. Like three lolly sticks crossed.

Beta 6 feels pretty good so far, much better than beta 5. A few more rounds of polish and we should be good to go.

Anyone notice if Siri is responding to your queries with the same response two or three times? Also, I've asked to get directions and she won't actually launch the Maps app. Ugh.

 

[Oberhorst]

Wow the new App Store icon is ugly. They totally destroyed it. :/

Is Sir response reliable as pb4 responses were few and far between.

Turning phone off for now. Was getting extremely hot and running super slow. On 64GB iPhone 6S. Hopefully just a fluke and it gets better once the phone cools off.

I can't seem to turn off auto brightness.

Not sure if you got a response, but auto-brightness toggle is now under display accommodations on Accessibility.

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

I like it! Can see it better. All the new icons are a nice edition IMO. Like the bolder look.

It's in the release notes. Known issue. Issue the command "Start over" to Siri.

Hope its a lot better than beta 5

If battery can get to the level it was at on 10.3.3, I’ll be happy. My battery has been garbage since 11. Just installed beta 6, so I’ll run it a few days and see how battery life is.

 

[blacktape242]

oh cool, I'm hoping for the next PB tomorrow then!!

 

[Jlcollins]

I really hope they improve smart invert because right now it's pretty bad.

It’s still garbage.

Anyone having problems accessing LTE? I’m only getting 4G after update

 

[blacktape242]

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

probably tomorrow....thats been the trend so far.

 

[araposo]

Hoping the Apple ID testflight bug is fixed.... I've been locked out of getting into Testflight for the past week, on ipad it's fine. Very random!

 

[Jlcollins]

I can't seem to turn off auto brightness.

It’s in display accommodations

Who is your carrier?

iOS 11 beta 5 was a total disaster. Does this fix the elementary bugs?

Seems to fix a lot of them. The spring board bug and passcode bugs seem to be gone.

 

[elvisimprsntr]

iOS 11.0b6 still has the UIKit controller issue, first introduced in b3, fixed in b4, re-introduced in b5, still present in b6. Not even close to GM
