Developer Beta 2 Fixes/Changes

Well, it's alt-space for me as cmd-space changes my keyboard language but yes, "Spotlight Search".

I can type in the app name, any app name, and Spotlight finds it immediately and opens a Finder window to highlight it. Yeah, thanks Spotlight!

Just tried it again and was able to open 3 different apps that were not previously running... Just to confirm, you're talking about doing the CMD+SPACE keys and typing the name of an installed app, correct?

It's worked in both beta 1 and beta 2.

Very strange that it's not working for everyone.

Yup. ‘⌘ + “Space”’ and then entry of ‘Spotify’ lends every kind of result but the actual application itself, with my Spotlight settings having ‘Applications’ checkmarked.

Just checked, works for me on Beta 2 and also did on Beta 1.

I have had a case or two where the '.app' was not the first item in the search results list... but the app I was searching for was in the list... scrolling down the list and selecting the app launched it, and subsequent attempts to search and launch the app worked without incident...

I’m not noticing anything different upon my first several minutes here. The same things that dont seem to work still dont. How about you guys?

How could you miss a snappiness improvement in Safari 12?

Doesn't feel that different to me. Though I mostly only visit Anandtech and MacRumors.

Logins in Safari, such as Macrumors forums login for me, seem to be lost after the beta 2. I have to re-enter creds each time I want to enter the forums. I look around, post, whatever, then quit/relaunch Safari, and login is gone again for MacRumors. I do check the "Keep Logged In" box, but that does not help. Other sites logins are just gone. Saved logins still work in other browsers, such as FireFox.
It seems to be Safari (v12) only, at least for me.

Same for me, and I gotta say it's rather annoying.
