New setting in Settings>App Store>Automatic Downloads>In-App Content: “Automatically run apps in the background to download content before you first launch them.”

Thought that was new. Thanks

 

[as4life]

Did they remove live activities?

 

[CBDawgs]

Yeah there used to be a follow button before beta 3. I believe I was following games that were not on Friday nights either.

This is correct. There should be the bell icon with “follow” next to it.

 

[CBDawgs]

This is correct. There should be the bell icon with “follow” next to it.

I am on the last public beta, so not sure if the new developer beta removed it.

 

[blueeyes2die4]

thanks. Once there, I can see the games. Just can’t figure out how to get them into Live Activities.

Guess I will be going back to beta 2.

Have they fixed the three finger undo gesture triggering without the presence of editable text?

To reproduce this simply open any non Apple app and tap the screen with three fingers. The text editing toolbar or "Nothing to Undo" will appear on screen even if no editable text is present, which interferes with instruments and games that expect multitouch inputs.

Nothing to undo is appearing for me

Anyone know how to get rid of those suggestions when you pull down? I tried hiding them but they snap right back into the results.

Carplay issue seems solved on 14pm

Can confirm this, at least the low call volume issue.

 

[Gathomblipoob]

Forgive my stupid question, but what is this CarPlay issue? 2017 Mazda 3 with the OEM CarPlay retrofit USB hub + software update. This hasn’t been exclusive to the 14 Pro, but it has happened with the 13 Pro / 12 mini / SE 3 I’ve used in the past few months. Sometimes it’ll connect super fast, other times it won’t do anything until I unplug and replug the cable from the hub. I’ve tried many different cables, same issue.

The particular CarPlay issue my gf and I were having was low call volume. It seems to be fixed in this beta.

 

[WilliApple]

Anyone experienced the dropped call upon being called issue yet?

No issue here. 14PM

 

[Pearsey]

Yep. I'm religious about using the IPSW to update. I really don't why this would be happening but I hope they push out a fix soon! Glad to be back on iOS 15 for the time being though.

That sucks man. Sorry to hear that. Always baffles me why two of the same devices can act so differently.

 

[Prabas]

I LOVE this More Space option! So glad they added it to older iPads, it makes the whole device look way bigger, more like real tablet and not oversized phone.

 

[mariuskv]

I am gonna do a @Pearsey and install it using ipsw

 

[OhMyMy]

Anyone else seeing a "Recently Deleted Apps" in the battery usage hours after the app has been actually deleted?

 

[Yptcn]

Could someone please check if it's possible to send oneself an iMessage now ? Since iOS16 bubble is green . TIA

Ip12. Test all blue to self.

 

[zbugrkx]

Anyone using Homekit and have some Secure Video camera's? Seems this beta has an issue and ALL cameras set themselves to "Stream and record" no matter if i'm at home or not

Thank you ! Finally 👍🏻

May I ask where you’re finding this? Thanks!

Edit: NVM - Display & Brightness > all the way to the bottom. And wow, this is amazing!

 

[Mikepeer]

Fantastical , 24Me & Calendar 5 Lock Screen widgets always worked for me from the very 1st beta of iOS 16. These have only just stopped working for me since 16.1 betas.

Thought it was just me, thanks for the feedback 😉

 

[Pearsey]

Thank you ! Finally 👍🏻

Bet you’re relieved you can text yourself now. Hope you both have a blast. 🤭😆
