iOS 12.3 Beta 1 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[gsmornot]

Don't know if somebody mentioned it already but wrist detection doesn't work for me at all when using Apple Pencil in Procreate. My hand is constantly registered and painting, erasing, doing gestures etc. I'd go back to 12.2 because of that alone, unfortunately my iMac doesn't have USB-C and I don't have an adapter either.

I mentioned it earlier in the thread, look for palm rejection. It’s happening in Notes and Pigment for me. Another person said Noteworthy does not have the issue. I hope it’s fixed in the next release. Until it is I use a microfiber cloth between my hand and the display or wear a cotton glove when I take more notes. Notes is an app I use daily, it’s my number one in Screentime. It’s what keeps me organized for work with all the projects I have.

My iPP 9.7 does not have this problem. For those that are having the issue, what version of iPP a you using?

For an initial beta, I’m really happy with 12.3. It seems to be running better than 12.2 for me. Phone working great and everything is nice and smooth. Looking forward to the next beta.

Did anybody’s middle finger emoji get removed when updating to 12.3 beta 1?

Here’s something I discovered. I’m not sure if it’s always been like this.

Basically, I’m using my index finger to swipe up very fast.

Interesting. It does look a little bit different

Can somebody test mail drop & see if it sends.

Failing for me.

I use Notes daily for, well note taking. Palm rejection is not working on my iPad Pro. Anyone else? When trying to write with the pencil the screen is registering my palm which causes the screen to jump around or open the keyboard. Can’t use notes without something between my hand and the screen.

Yes, my iPad Pro 11 doesn’t have any more palm rejection with this 12.3. How do I return to 12.2?

Restore using iTunes. Restore files are on the developer portal. You could wait it out by putting something between your hand and the display until the next update. Hopefully this will be a one week cycle.

Thank you, I will probably wait and use a glove while working on Procreate!

Not meaning to sound rude, but this is asked daily. Why don’t you just read this thread?

I would like to have an answer after one week. That is the reason I ask now. The others only criticized a battery drain under 12.2. I had no battery drain under 12.2. But now under 12.3. iPhone XS. It’s smooth, fast. But the battery live is for me really bad.

Select about 30 photos from the photos app. Send them all in an email. Choose actual size.It’ll say theyre too big to send through regular mail & then prompt you to use mail drop to send.

Then that’s how you should have framed your question originally. So many people drop in here with questions like “battery?” or “Wi-Fi?” that it gets extremely tiresome because they appear too lazy to try it out themselves. If you have a specific reason for asking, invest the extra minute or so to type it all out. Believe it or not, questions posed that way are helpful to others who may be experiencing the same thing you are.

I’d forgotten about that feature.

It's funny. I'm not using the beta anymore but just got an email from Apple that they have fixed one bug from the previous betas. xD

You can enable reduce motion to stop it

I found a new animation:

On your homescreen, swipe down for search. Then swipe up the homebar, I think thats new.

When you swipe down and speak abracadabra you’ll get 50% discount on the iPhone 11!!!

Does someone knows when the new beta will be out? I think it is a week now since the last one was released.
