Is Handoff to HomePod mini with the U1-Experience working for you on iOS 14.5? Was very unreliable during Beta 1 for me and now seems to not work at all on my 12 Pro Max…
 
Kinda odd that Apple never just used some Beats variant for the headphone emoji.
Brand confusion is a real problem.

Beats never had that Apple feel/image to them, and to then integrate them into the iconography like that… Nah. Not a good look for Apple.

Where are these two shortcut actions located? I tried looking and searching, no avail.
Nevermind that ... what of the 'different gender options for people with beards' ?!

Like ... huh? how does this even look? whom that would really want this would actually use it? how often?
- I must be thinking such an emoji is strange looking let alone is this solving what nobody asked for? I guess since I don't have a beard I would not know it's importance??

I'm so confused wrapping my head around this, I didn't get as far as the two shortcuts you're talking about :(
 
OLED true blacks are still not fixed!

Basically, the iPhone 12 is like TFT-LCD when brightness is below 80% and the problem is still not fixed with iOS14.5 Beta 2. (not all phones are affected, therefore it must be a hardware issue which Apple is trying to hide!)


Try to do a local dimming test with a brightness between 10-80% in an "ABSOLUTE" dark room:


If the black background glows during the test, report to Apple and ask for replacement.

“Desperate” product placement? AirPods Max were released in December and are still backordered for weeks. Seems like you’re the one who’s desperate.
Yes, it's especially thanks to airpods Max that Sony XM4's are flying off the shelves. And they look like the old emoji too.
 
"These are items that aren't yours, but have been seen with you for a continuous amount of time." Shouldnt the message add ", You bastard." at the end?
Funny story. When Siri first came out I was demonstrating it to my friend and asked Siri to call me "master". She promptly replied "I shall call you bastard". And so for the last 9 years Siri (and everywhere else that use nickname, including mail) has referred to me as bastard.
 
How about fixing the fastest iPhone ever made STUTTERING issue for hundredths (comments) and tens of thousands (real impact) of users?:

 
“The Headphone emoji has been updated to look like the AirPods Maxrather than a generic set of headphones 🎧 “

That’s annoying. I didn’t mind the white earbuds emoji when a pair came in the box. I need to get out more. Oh. Can’t. Lockdown.

Same happened with iPhone 7. Was fixed. Priorities I guess
 
I was not aware that the microphone was not muted when the cover of the iPad was closed. I have an iPad Air 3, and thought that when the cover closed, and locked the device, the mic was muted or “turned off”.

Unless I have one of the models mentioned, in the article, with the smart folio keyboard case, is the following true? I am FaceTiming with someone, and I close the cover of my iPad. The person would still be able to hear me? Maybe I’m missing something simple here, but I’m confused.
 
These changes are good but I’m still waiting for the ability to create smart playlists, lol

Desperately waiting for apple to add cross fading tracks on Apple Music!

That swipe-to-queue feature in Apple Music is brilliant! I might update to the public beta just for this.

I want to be able to search within a music playlist, like on Spotify.
It would have been so much simpler and more efficient if Apple decoupled app updates from major iOS patches. That goes for Music, Messages, TV etc. I don't want to wait for a .x iOS update to improve my Music experience, and I don't want a system update to be all about Music and Messages either.

Apple is already copiously (and superficially) grafting random Android features on top of the iOS interface, I just wish they'd also do it for things that make a difference.
