Yeah the weird thing is I turned on Do Not Disturb manually in the car and was still getting messages come through so I am just confused by the whole thing.

I also can't get DND while driving to work. I'll manually activate it, but will still get phone calls/notifications while driving. I have it hooked up to my car via bluetooth and also have an apple watch, so I don't know if any of those factors are contributing to it not working. Anyone else with this issue/have a fix?

There's going to be 4 more betas after this most likely, so yes. Majority of bugs will be fixed most likely.

4 more betas?! No way. There have only been 2 iOS X.0 beta 8s. Most don't even get a beta 7. We are 5 weeks out. We will get 2 more. 3, tops.

August 7
August 21 (9/6 event)
August 28 (9/12 event)
GM on day of event. So 9/6 or 9/12

For me it's literally the complete opposite. It runs amazingly well on my iPhone 7 Plus, and it's much better than beta 3 for me.

Yeah, I mean my iPhone SE works beautifully on the current beta, I have no complaints, it’s just my iPad Air 2 that went from buggy but snappy to buggy and laggy haha

Been stuck at this since past couple of hours. Is this broken for anyone else?

Still no beta 4 on ip7plus with AT&T.

Removed profile and everything.

Hmmm....I never removed. I would just add again like it was never on there in the first place. I stopped using developer betas after public betas were introduced. But I've had to do it a couple of times...just go on and install the profile again and it has always loaded for me after that.

On AT&T as well.

HSBC India app did not go past first screen on beta 3. Works fine on beta 4.
QuickBooks Online app crashed big time on the "Dashboard" screen on beta 3. Does the same on beta 4.

Overall, some apps have started working better (read: as expected) in beta 4 versus beta 3. That'a always a good thing.

Just updating my response: QB released an update today that fixed the crash for me. More testing to do, but at least it does not immediately crash.
 
I’ve got a problem when using volumes in iOS 11 it shouldn’t showing a speaker in the middle of the screen in YouTube but on mine is showing all the time I’m using volume buttons.

It seems third party ways of hiding the speaker icon (e.g. which they might want to do if for example they have their own UI element for volume) which worked in previous versions of iOS no longer work. Another example is Spotify when you are casting and changing the volume. I'm sure this is a bug or there'll be a new API for these apps to use to hide it.

Just to be clear though, the volume icon in the middle of the screen isn't expected to be universally gone in iOS 11. There were already ways to hide it in previous versions (e.g. YouTube in your example) and these are temporarily (i hope) broken. I think the key purposeful change in iOS 11 regarding this is just that the default media player no longer uses it it. But other places still will.

I just can't believe how much better the app switcher feels with the improved transitions in beta 4. It's just so smooth and precise. Boy when Apple get it right, they get it right!

Only appears for me when viewing videos in Safari. (eg: mobile YouTube)
 
Anyone else noticed how you can no longer invoke the cover sheet/notification center via reachability? Still requires you to swipe down from the very top of the screen.

I hate when that happens! You know, press the same button 5 times in a row, "accidentally". 🙂

Lol, I was trying to turn the volume up but it wasn't working so I kept pressing. It was only after that popped up that I realised why the volume wasn't increasing...

lol. Here is a little more info on that feature if interested. It was on then off for everyone except in India. I guess they turned it back on again on 11.
