[Sal09]

Are we all singing Santa Claus is coming to town?

 

[SumYoungGai]

Got a source for your 99% number?

iCloud Advance Data Protection not yet available here in 🇵🇭. Bummer.

I've not updated to the new Homekit because it's not compatible with non-iOS 16 devices.

I've not activated the new Notes passcode feature for the same reason. (I"m still bitter, after all these iOS versions, when my older devices lost access to Reminders after iOS 13).

So ... this new iCloud encryption option (https://www.apple.com/newsroom/imag...anced-Data-Protection_inline.jpg.large_2x.jpg) - is anyone brave enough to activate it and see if they lose access to stuff on non-iOS 16 and non-Ventura devices?

It wouldn’t let you activate the ADP if any of your devices are on older versions of OS. Asks you to either update or remove the devices that are incompatible.

Thanks for checking! I've got a backup phone that won't go above iOS 15, so I'll pass on this unfortunately.

It is not available in Spain either. I guess they will release it with the official release

According to the press release it‘ll be rolled out globally early 2023

 

[ibookemo]

Can someone please let me know if the messages app reloading bug is still present? Thank you

Yes, the ‘bug’ is still there. It actually might just be the new design - people maybe like that the app resets to the list of conversations rather than staying within one

Yeah, read that just now as well. 😅 Looking forward to E2EE for Messages in iCloud. At long last! 🙌🏽

Just open Apple Music, go to a random song, go to lyrics and you should see a slider on the right side(not available in all songs).

 

[s2mike]

At some point today, would anyone be so kind as to check to see if this Apple Music bug is still present?

Much thanks.

Previous bug:​

​

After you remove an album from your library, or even a song from a playlist, the album/playlist disappears from the “Recently Played” section in the Listen Now tab. And then, even if you listen to the album again afterwards, it won't reappear under “recently played”.​

To check this, simply:

• Add any album to your library

• Play a few seconds of a song so that the album appears under “Recently Played”

• Delete the album from your library

• Does the album still appear under “Recently Played”, or has it disappeared?


Thank you!

The “always on” location services is still not fixed

You're the biggest fan of IPSW installs (lol) so you should know this. Can the RC be installed via IPSW without having a beta profile on the phone?

I don’t ever have the profile on my phone. I always wait for IPSW.

 

[OhMyMy]

Phone seems to be running cooler on this one. Might actually lead to better battery life. Knock on 🪵 !

Yes

 

[VSMacOne]

Yes

Nope. It turns out you can't. I just found out the hard way. I'll have to do an iCloud restore now. UGH

EDIT: It turns out that it was just an error. But I was able to do it successfully the second time.

Couldn’t get PB4 to install no matter what I did. This installed no problem. Pretty smooth so far.

 

[Mlrollin91]

a "d" build number straight to RC. That feels like a first.

In any event, very excited for a new update.

 

[sbailey4]

‘d’ build this came from guys and girls.

Just whenever the whole RC only comes from an ‘a’ build convo starts.

Actually THIS build may not have been a “d”. The last build (58) had 4 revisions so IT was a “d”. No one knows how many this one had. It’s a totally different build so possibly only 1 revision so could be “a” build or could be an “f”. Just sayin……..😆
