1+ I agree. I am tempted by the modem and carrier upgrades too, but since folks haven't mentioned that they actually improve reception, I don't think its worth installing, since some folks now have Apple Pay issues. I will be watching the threads about both these items. Thanks to everyone who is posting feedback on these betas.As much as the modem upgrade tempts me, I think I am going to sit this one out and stick with 12.1.3 final for a bit.
I would be interested in feedback about LTE however ...
Great thread!


Can you share a picture of what you're referring to? What is the "blue button thing"?Those new boxes in the wallet app! I think this will be systemwide for all apps with the ios 13 „redesign“.
[doublepost=1548432340][/doublepost]Woa I got a nice find.
If you login to a website now via this new blue button login thing it automatically logs you in. No manual „login“ tap anymore.
Really need more than a day to get a somewhat decent realistic feel for it.Regarding battery life, anyone got any feedback? Is it better? Same?

Looks like some authentication weirdness with apps:
- BECU (mobile banking) app fails to log in
- Geico app fails to log in
- AT&T app fails to pull in billing info

It logs me in right away. Hoped long time for thisso you're saying you hit the blue botton and it enters your credentials and logs you in right away? or do you still have to hit sign in/log in?
hmm. i tried in a few websites and i still have to hit login. what website did you test on?It logs me in right away. Hoped long time for this
I have never to my recollection encountered the blue button.It logs me in right away. Hoped long time for this
Why would you want the experimental features on? I have no idea what they do so could you explain? Like the last one, why would you disable web SQL? Wouldn’t a website with a database need this or no?Safari on iOS 12.2 beta 1 now scores 500 https://html5test.com with all experimental features enabled.

Fairly sure there have been plenty of those over the years.Man, this is a boring release... especially for a XX.X release.

You might see a difference, but the first few days and charge cycles usually won't really be representative of what things will be like typically down the line.I thought so, although after almost one day you could see a difference. I'll ask tomorrow then.
Reduced latency as well as privacy concerns are two reasons to have a Homekit hub local in the home (Apple isn't Google after all) 🙂I don‘t think the iPhone is becoming the hub, I think the Apple Ecosystem and your AppleID + iCloud are the new hub. All your media, accessible from and controllable from any device that supports the Apple Ecosystem. Never made sense to me to push the ATV as a media hub, iCloud is the hub.
And maybe my characterizing the phone as the hub was a touch off. But it certainly is the controller for the hub.Reduced latency as well as privacy concerns are two reasons to have a Homekit hub local in the home (Apple isn't Google after all) 🙂
Back it up, encrypted to the cloud, sure, but have all chatter between your Homekit IOT devices in the home, except when it makes sense for them to communicate with your wearables / iPhones.
Anybody having issue with their AOL email after the update ? It kept asking me to re-enter password in settings.
After I enter the password, it will work for about an hour then ask for password again.
