Apple Seeds Third Beta of iOS 9.3 to Developers

[Poontaco]

I think someone needs to do a fresh install of their brain. Something isn't working right.
I'm pretty sure a focus group would agree.
Boom, FACT!

Bug
In iPad Air 2 the gesture with four fingers to change and another app shows a black screen with half a second

 

[S7NGULARITY]

In Settings, look under the Phone menu, not the Cellular menu.

Same thing for me. Its not under phone settings either. Im using a 5S so it should be available, it just isnt. Tried OTA then fresh install and both times I get no option.

I don't have strong feelings one way or the other. These buttons could have no icon for all I care, as long as I know what they do.

I know what they do. Icons are not about explaining a feature, they are about fast recognizing by shape and metaphor and not having to read a word and search your linguistic memory. It's far easier for our lizard brains to handle shapes instead of letters. That's a biological fact and that's why road signs use pictograms not words. iOS 7 replaced many icons with words and was rightfully critizised for this design flaw.

Seeing that 9.3 logo I hope iOS 10 gets rid of all vestiges of the 7-9 look and returns back to an elegant look.

Cheesy, childish, trendy was never Apple. At least not under SJ. Things just really fell apart past after he left.

You mean "elegant" like this?

Uh-huh.

Hell yeah. Better than iOS 7-9 no doubt about it.
So Google finally gets a decent designer to successfully clean up the look of Android. Great. They did a great job. Then Apple follows suite haphazardly aping them?

First of all, whomever is in charge of IOS UI design is not in the same league as the Android design team. Funny how things turned out. Apple is the Android of UI design and Android is what Apple is aspiring to.

Jesus is Homer Simpson's favorite fictional character. What a great foundation for a conversation about facts. Because most humans focus grouped said they have 10 fingers, natural numbers are a base 10 number system fit for human finger counting (I know some humans have 12 fingers). It would be kinda hard to count to two with only one finger. That's why in a base 1 number system 1+1=1.

LMAO... that was a typing error on my part. I typed 10.

My wishes:

1. Change Wi-Fi Calling profile to "cellular preferred" vs. current "Wi-Fi preferred", just like AT&T
2. Change LTE-to-4G handover signal strength to around -100 dBm to reduce call drops.

I don't have wifi calling, and I'm on AT&T. I was unable to decipher what you meant above.

1) Does AT&T use cellular preferred or Wi-Fi preferred? Can this option be changed?
2) What is Verizon using in the current iOS beta?

According to AT&T and T-Mobile engineers, AT&T profile is set to Cellular Preferred Wi-Fi Calling whereas T-Mobile's profile is set to Wi-Fi Preferred Wi-Fi Calling. Cellular Preferred will use cellular for all voice calls unless it loses cellular connection altogether. Wi-Fi Calling is the opposite and it will use Wi-Fi for all voice calls unless the phone is not connected to Wi-Fi with Internet connectivity. Two big problems with Wi-Fi Calling is (1) poor audio quality with weak Wi-Fi connection and and (2) cellular handoff. Unless you are on LTE, handoff will most likely fail as you roam away from Wi-Fi connection.

Thanks for the info

Any idea on how Verizon's is set?

I think it's Cellular Preferred. At home, with ~2 bars of LTE, I'm on VZW Wi-Fi. But at work with 4-5 bars, I'm on regular Verizon. Toggling Airplane and turning on Wi-Fi puts it back on VZW Wi-Fi.

I think you are correct. That is exactly how wifi calling functions for me as well and I'm with AT&T.

Well logmein client app is still broken on this build. I guess logmein may need to update their app and they are slow as hell updating their app. I may need to rollback to 9.2 again. App crashes as soon as you open it ever since first 9.3 beta. Anybody aware if this has been reported to Apple or Logmein?

Is that normal? Should they appear later?
I don't have a developer account anyway, so if you find them please let me know,i would really appreciate it

Release notes on betas tend to be extremely generic I guess for the sake of leaks. Anyway eventually people get a hold of the beta sniff it and everything comes out in a few days.

Yeah well that's just like, your opinion man....

The old look was trash and android OS looks like garbage.
[doublepost=1454983104][/doublepost]

That's not an opinion but a fact. And it is a big issue as well. Apple wanted to sell high-priced designer stuff and bragged about how even the backside of a Mac looks better than a PC, now they've got to deliver or risk to lose customers who come to expect what has been promised. Therefore protruding camera lenses, ugly antenna bands and a failed icon design after something better already existed, are the biggest issues of all. If you want to sell expensive, everything else got to be perfect. No mistakes allowed.

So don't buy one.... Lol but bet you still did

People use the developer account for far, far much more than just Betas ;P (I think you know this, but I got a good laugh out of "there would be no benefit to being a paid developer")

No **** but of course the public free version would not come out before a paid service... Most paid versions are not actual developers....

Confirmed on my Air 2. The new app slides in, and then the screen flashes black for a second before retu inglés to the new app.

I really hope the fix the "spotlight" pull down searching. I have to type in something then press search then delete it and type it again before results show.

spotlight works good w me, never had the issue w the 6S

What weather app is that? Or is that a jailbreak?

 

[kiancheong]

Installed Beta 3, noticed that the PayPal app got removed (as opposed to deleted), a quick reinstall from the App Store proved that the user data is still there.

That's how the weather app used to be when placed into Notification Center!

 

[phgerin]

Anyone else having problem with the hearth rate widget in the health app ?
It always use the 0-300 range for me.

Public release needs to come out already this 6s too bright at night Jesus
