Apple Seeds Third Beta of iOS 11.2.5 to Developers [Updated]

[b1gted]

good lord, volume is FOOOOKED!

 

[justperry]

That’s always a good start but usually the two biggest offenders are location usage and background refresh apps allowed to run. So look there first. Also remember you can see what’s the biggest battery drains fairly easily in settings under battery. Often the results are surprising with badly behaving apps.

I myself think iOS (this beta and a few before) is the cause of batteries draining fast.

Does it fix all of our problems?!

 

[Seth Matthews]

I like the loud system sounds.

 

[sbailey4]

If anyone find a fix for the sound bug at beta 3 please quote me, it's almost impossible to use the phone like this

Well the fix is to turn off keyboard and lock screen clicks in settings>sounds. At least until they turn this volume back down in the next beta/release.

Yep! except the large red font issue while posting in MR forums

They need to fix the battery life on the phones. Yesterday I didnt touch my phone till lunch and it was at 67%.

Perhaps if they throttle your iPhone CPU that would help?

Same here iPhone 7 with 8 months of use drains with locked screen. I’ve just restored it few days ago with iCloud backup to fix any software problem that can be causing the battery drain but it didn’t. Can’t get trough a full day with a single charge even with light use. With iOS 10 I was able to finish the day with 10% of battery ):

Same for me. With 11 the autonomy is getting worse, what a pity.

Hopefully this fixes my constant dropped calls and baseband reboots

You use your iPhone for phone calls???

 

[ronno]

Too early for battery info features?

Yes, too early.

public post now available.

Universal linking is still broken in this beta.

 

[GoodWheaties]

I wish one of these updates would stop the time from disappearing from the lock screen, requiring a reboot to fix.

 

[simplynando]

Wow, this volume bug on the iPhone X is ridiculous. How did that ever pass?

 

[Donfor39]

P.b. 3 has arrived via ota updates -u.k.

 

[gsmornot]

Guess need to turn keyboard clicks off until the next update.

 

[LarryJoe33]

Wow, this is very loud, I can't remember, was there a way to adjust the volume level somewhere in settings for system sounds e.g. keyboard clicks, etc.?

 

[MalcolmJID]

Aren't system sounds -including the keyboard - tied to the ringer volume (so not affected by the physical volume keys with default behaviour)?

thanks those are the areas I always check on my friend's phones and it is always the same - all apps allowed to run in the background and to send notifications

No.

How do we know it is a bug? I like it. Maybe Apple wants it that way. I sure hope so.

We know that it's a bug because it's almost impossible to get it lower

Explain? You turned off the switches for keyboard and lock screen and you still hear those sounds?

Yes, exactly, at least at iPhone X
