It doesn't work when live photos are involved basically (as those record audio, similar to video recording).
Got a tip for us?

Giving users more of an opportunity to control the look and feel of their personal iOS experience. Nice Apple. Seems like they're going all in on converting Android users to iOS. Deleting stock apps, Memories in the Photos app, individual app upgrades, etc. Pretty soon there's going to be little difference in the way each of the OS function. That's a good thing for people like me.
I'm inclined to agree. I'm sure there was a mention of Game Centre for the other OS's during the keynote. I maybe wrong and they might have mentioned GameKit.
The lack of it in beta 1 doesn't necessarily mean its gone for good. Later betas may add it back in.
Apple Pay isn't in New Zealand yet, and I'm assuming there aren't any Kohl's either
Maybe dark mode will be an exclusive feature of future mLED/OLED iPhones & iPads. Yeah, I know it sounds ridiculous, but with Apple lately, you never know.
That's it, huh? Wow Apple. It's really amazing how far behind they are. And this didn't even help.
It's only been a few hours, but this is by far the most stable iOS beta Apple has ever released at WWDC, like by 100's of miles. I have yet to find any kind of glitch, lag or crash.
This feature will be helpful regardless of how much storage you have. I just had to delete a bunch of stuff off my 128GB phone last week to make room for some vids and pics I was taking.
Not sure if you're joking or not, but it's just a coincidence. Stayed at a Hilton property there a number of years ago and get bombarded with "special offers of up to 80% off!" on a regular basis. At least once a day, some times more. They call from spoofed Orlando numbers (lucky for me, makes it easy). They do not conform to any kind of rules the FCC may lay out as they'll either curse at you and hang up or simply hang up and you'll get yet another call from them soon after.
I didn't really use the Game Center, other than a few games I play fairly often store my configuration and progress info there. I installed the beta as an update, and my settings, user data, and progress are still intact -- but it would disappointing if I did a 'setup as new' iPhone and installed those games and had to start all over again
Game Center does still appear in settings, with configuration options. Maybe it's now just something developers can use internally...? Whatever the status of Game Center, Apple hasn't made an announcement -- statements that it's gone are just speculation.
Yep, only the app is gone.
Similar experience here, as far as it being the most stable yet. I have had the springboard crash when using the app switcher, but it's only one crash so far, compared to it normally being barely usable.

Please add Health to the list of apps that can be removed...
Maps has been doing this for me for years. Whenever I go on a trip, Maps seems to purposely take me off the highway when it can, specifically to avoid tolls.
Great article, thanks for posting.
Hoping something similar is on the way for macOS and tvOS

Unfortunately, it will still try to open the Apple Maps app and prompt you to re-download it. I'm hoping they'll let you set default apps in the future.
Another note, when I re-downloaded the Apple Maps app from the AppStore, it was instant. This leads me to believe that you don't actually delete the apps, just hide them. It was seriously instant; I tapped the cloud-like download button, and the 'open' button instantly appeared.
UPDATE: I can confirm that the app isn't actually deleted and is instead hidden. You can test this yourself by having the Maps AppStore page open, delete the Maps app, go back to the AppStore page and see the cloud-like download icon, turn on airplane mode, still able to download the app instantly

I suspected this would be the case.
It may not actually let you, but get to the point where you click the cloud-like button, but go into airplane mode before you do. If it "downloads" it then, you have your answer!
You were expecting that for some reason?

Apple points out that deleting stock apps doesn't free up much space as they don't take up much space, meaning that's not the reason why they are providing it: http://support.apple.com/HT204221
