Absolutely, which is why I continue to roll on the beta train. Public releases are rarely significantly better than the following betas. Over all the years I've never had a beta bug that made my phone unusable.
Got a tip for us?

For WhatsApp, have you tried to reset your phone after the update? My WhatsApp works on XR w/o any problems after beta 2 update. Authenticator is dead.
One year there was a beta bug that rendered the phone feature inoperable.
Stay safe everyone.
Interesting morning here in sunny smoky Cali ....
Widgets. Weather and Calendar
Calendar first - you can see it in one of the screenshots below.
As of this morning on my 11 ProMax, the Widget stopped showing upcoming appointments. Shows Nada.
Weather next.
I suspect it is more than just the widgets.
IPP11 and 11PM.
IPP11 - the Widget and Safari page don’t match at all. Current is off by 3 degrees, forecast and pretty much all else disagree
11PM - the Widget and App don’t match at all. Current is off by 3 degrees, forecast and pretty much all else disagree
Interestingly the widget on both match. The App and Safari page don’t and are different than the widget.
That said, actual outside temp when these screenshots were take was 63F.
When is Apple going to fix this mess.

We had a Maps vehicle up in New Milford, CT about 3 years ago. I'm sure they've been through your area before, but they drew the initial roll out line at Gun Hill Road in the Bronx
I'm not having any issues on my 11Pro with the sensor when answering a phone call with the banner. Maybe try restarting?
I just click on the ADD button on the phone app and they were added to the watch.
All of a sudden today i started experiencing major lag in the messaging app with scrolling and typing...
Yes: open the video, then click on the change button and then play
I carry my phone(SE2020)in a dedicated phone pocket in my shorts. Always top end in first so as not to wake the screen. Always done it this way. Since this beta if I get a call when I pull it out it automatically stops ringing and dumps it to voice mail. Never did this before. Have not heard this mentioned here previously. Wondering if a new bug or new feature gone awry.
Please guyz help.
So I tried to take a selfie within the whatsapp camera and send it and it crashed and now it wont open whatsapp anymore, just keeps crashing. Tried RAM wipe, hard reboot, send messages from another phone, opening via 3D touch menu, everything...

I did the exact same thing yesterday, and it rendered WhatsApp useless. I couldn't launch despite restarting and offloading the app. I was, however, still getting messages via the phone to my desktop WA application. Weird. The only fix was to delete and reinstall WA.
Thanks - yes I did all of that, but as someone else posted, what actually caused WA to crash and not recover was taking a front facing photo from within WA. It worked until I did that. Then the only way to get it running again was to completely delete WA and reinstall. It works again now. Google Authenticator is definitely not working. I've been trying to switch many services to Authy, which is prob a good idea anyway, so I suppose that's the silver lining - realizing GA is antiquated and clunky.
If you're using iCloud to backup, you should be ok. I recovered all convos except for those that occurred within about a 6 hour window of time. All else seems to be fine and restored. Manually check if your WA is being backed up first. If you have WA desktop enabled try viewing messages there for now. Mine were still coming through. In fact, if someone video called me, it'd come up on my phone as a notification but I couldn't actually do anything.
My backup is done manually. So idk when is the last one backuped. I can reply from notifications only. I'll leave it like this, maybe it fixes it self or I'll wait for an update from whatsapp or apple

Face ID
I have been comparing my IPP11 and 11PM as it ”seemed” I was having to input my passcode more often.
I use both devices numerous times each day. In other words, a lot. Recommend saying that Peanut style (Jeff Dunham).
Over the past 2 days, I have had to imput my passcode:
11PM - 9 times
IPP11 - 21 times (including 3x this morning)
Not sure what is going on with this.
Anyone else seeing a change in FaceID behaviour? 🧐
Note: I have not reset or otherwise adjusted FaceID since updating to beta 2
