Seems like the same build as released for iPhone X. Wonder why didn't they release it for other iPhones at the same day. :)

123.3 megabytes on iPhone 7.
 
It’ll be nice to see what changes people can find. I haven’t noticed anything different and I’ve had this beta since Friday :confused:

Since you've had the beta since Friday, something tells me you have the iPhone X. And as such you should probably update your signature :)
[doublepost=1509992570][/doublepost]Anyways, almost done installing the update now. Curious to see what changes :)

Haha, yes I should. Thanks for pointing that out. I always forget I have one as they’re always hidden when browsing on my phone.

Maybe this is the "catch up with iPhone X" beta, with little or no functional changes. Hope I'm wrong, though!
 
Any indication of iMessage in iCloud? I'm beginning to think they've abandoned it entirely... :mad:

No Apple Pay Cash to be found...

Not sure if it’s new in 11.2 beta 2 or not, but if you ask Siri what you can ask, Apple Pay Cash is on the list of options, but if you try to use it, Siri says it’s not available due to device settings or region :eek:

So far the home springboard lockup/crash seems to have been fixed! To be clear, in beta 1 while in widget screen launching spotlight search a few times OR scrolling way up (past the footer) until it was way past normal would lockup home screen with a search bar up top and no dock. Sometimes it would re-spring and solve itself and sometimes it would hard lock where a restart was required.

It wouldn’t be the first time. Remember notification syncing in iOS 9? That never saw the light of day.

Ugh I'll be so pissed. I did a fresh iOS install when I got my X, fully expecting I would eventually get my iMessages back when the feature launches. Not the end of the world either way, but I remember it being great (when it worked) during the beta period.
