Apple Seeds Third iOS 9 Beta to Developers With News App

[zaneliu]

Where is the new News App ? I can't see it ?

It was just on the next page like a newly downloaded app. Maybe its US only?

How about apple music?

Here too!

Yeah, but how is the battery life? /s

Do you have an Apple Watch? I have to delete the Apple Watch profile by going to Watch > General > Profile and deleting the watch beta profile (i am going off memory for the exact location but its somewhere in the watch app that you delete the profile). Then do a hard reboot and the OTA update for iOS 9.0 starts working.'

Edit: also even doing this Beta 3 is not appearing for me via OTA yet.

I had to do the same with this OTA and Beta 2 as well.

If I delete the Watch profile does that delete all of the content/settings on my Watch?

First notice: Beats1 and the New section in Apple music isn't working on the beta. I'll try a restart and see.

update: still not working

Beats1 worked on beta 2. Although you had to press the image to start playback not the play button. Could still have the same issue.

iPad layout for folders is not 3x3 now but 4x4

I know your joking but on Beta 2 I have had the best battery life I've ever had. I am going to bed with 50% of my 6 Plus' battery left without plugging it in all day and fairly heavy usage. I didn't get that on iOS 8 and definitely not on 9 Beta 1.

I agree completely. Beta 2 battery life for me has been extraordinary.

Whaaaaaat really?

i heard somewhere apple was kinda lifting off Flipboard for their News app... if that's the case (and i'm not sure it is), flipboad has 100x better looking UI.. was hoping this wouldn't be another 'mostly white and spacious' native app.

Wow, that is a welcome change! Still would have preferred it OS X style, but I've longed for bigger folder pages. Screenshot?

Work around.

Click the Beats1 logo and on the next page click Listen Now. This is one of the UI issues where the Listen Now button doesn't appear on the Radio page.

And the New tab is having issues but I'd give it some time before completely dismissing it as broke.

Here is the 4x4

And now to move to getting all of my news from the News App instead of Play Newsstand.

And where is Xcode beta 3 ?

You can now search for a keyword on a webpage in Safari A feature I have been itching for since getting an iPhone 4 years ago. This will allow me to use my iPhone/iPad to browse the web instead of always going to get my laptop!

I'm not seeing News either - UK user (though currently in Finland)

Couldn't you always do this?

That's good news - how do you do it?

 

[madeinjersey]

News is also added to the multitasking sidebar on iPad

How about after selecting a folder?

 

[chanathan]

That's good news - how do you do it?

my devices are updating right now so I don't have it in front of me but you just type in the word in the safari address bar you're looking for and you can search for the use of that word in your current webpage. it's just a different option than googling that word.

Is safari snappier?

HA HA HA
