iOS 11.1 Beta 2 Bug Fixes, Changes and Improvements

Status
The first post of this thread is a WikiPost and can be edited by anyone with the appropiate permissions. Your edits will be public.
Just installed it, haven't installed a beta since iOS 9 days. One question, if I want to restore to 11.0.3 restoring to a previous backup via iTunes would be enough right ? Also, I have the iPhone connected to iTunes and it has made a backup automatically of 11.1 PB2. What's the point of having a backup from a beta ? You can't restore it...
 
Loving beta 2. 7+. Also, don't judge me about Grindr bahaha

Did anyone else lose emoji predictions with this beta on a 8 plus..?? my 7 plus has them but not my 8 plus.. Check settings on both phones, all the same

You have to send yourself like 20 emojis at first then it triggers them ..

ummm... so I just got a notification from my Bible app asking me how I was doing... with two emoji on each side of the text..
 
Having some frame drops while unlocking, iPhone SE. Also, I’m noticing that that Touch ID won’t even recognize my finger until 2nd attempt.
 
Well my over 2 year old 6S+ today is showing 36% battery left with Usage of 3hrs 59mins and Standby of 11hrs 30 mins
Not bad, however I have not been looking at video's like usual or loads of Facebook. LOL

No you cannot restore a new backup to an old iOS version. You CAN restore a backup from a beta tho. Its no different than any other backup. You should have moved or renamed the backup folder (just the device one not the entire folder) prior to letting it backup 11.1. Then you would have had a backup of pre 11.1 that you can restore if you wanted to go back. At this point you would have to download the 11.0.3 IPSW file and do a shift/update to go back. You will not be able to restore the 11.1 backup to iOS 11.0.3.

[Edit] that is in Windows. On Mac you have an archive function for your backups that will save them from being overwritten.

Thanks for the answer, I’m on Mac so I think I’ll wait to final release of 11.1 and still it via iTunes

Yesterday, I was driving with navigation running and entire phone froze. I could continue listening to music thru Bluetooth, but no response, I even received a phone call and I was able to answer with handsfree system on my truck. I hung up and phone still was unresponsive, then screen went black and I pressed power button and phone turned on, but navigation and music closed like the phone had restarted. Weird to say the least.

Apple Maps or Google Maps? I am seeing that issue with Google Maps since beta 1. I was hoping that beta 2 would fix it but no such luck so I submitted bug reports with Apple and google

Can't find this on a quick search through this (now long) thread.
Has anyone else noticed that selecting Airport mode in the control center turns OFF all the radios, and not just disconnecting from signal (the way it SHOULD work 😀 )

Isn’t that the expected behavior of airplane mode?
 
Pretty sure this is new... I Guess this is a US only feature..

I keep getting an odd intermittent bug. Every so often the lockscreen no longer shows the time and only a restart will fix it.

It’s not something I can replicate and it happens randomly.

I’ve tried all the trouble shooting usual steps. I even reset all the settings on the phone to see if it helped. But it happened again this morning.

This is on a 7 plus.
 
Just installed this after reading good reviews here. SO much better than 11.0.3. This is what 11.0 should have been.
 
This sounds like the first iOS 11 version "safe" enough to upgrade my iPhone 7 to (from 10.3).
I guess there are no problems to be expected when going from 10 directly to a beta version of 11.1?

iPhone SE here, pretty bad battery life. In 10.3.3 I was getting around 7:30-9 of usage
