iOS 16 Beta 1 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[Pearsey]

This is an unbelievable first beta.
I don’t have one app that doesn’t work.

Mind blown.

If you have Apple Watch will it just show you the iPhone % and still they should add it to the status bar

FFS... perhaps you could step up to the plate and test?

* there is an option for "automatic" or you can choose a specific device

The framework is still same as iOS 15 so most things work the same this is more of a 15.7

 

[cbreze]

Anyone notice “your face is to far away” pop up on the lock screen? Kind of annoying, wish it could be turned off.

 

[Séamus Boyle]

Happy now?

How are you getting an option for the phone battery? All I see is a watch battery option.

Apple Music feels a lot faster and snappier. Scroll views are scrolling faster.

And there is a few visual changes. The text labels are now replaced with chevrons.

I used to beta test every version since 10 years ago or so but iOS 15 and now this has nothing I wanna try out, to be fair I am bored of wanted so much and getting nothing, but sorry to sound salty just upset we got another minor update, I’ll enjoy seeing you test it

I only have Imports and Recently Deleted on my iPad.

Edit: I rebooted and now the option is there. I might hold off on using it until 16 is officially released, however. Just in case.

I enabled KB haptics. I put my phone sound on, then muted and the haptics worked. I also turned keyboard noise off in favor of keyboard haptics.

Still not working for me. I’m on a 13 pro.

 

[Jumpie]

Recently Deleted Messages is nice!

 

[Pearsey]

iCloud page in settings has a little design tidy up.

Been running iOS 16 on my 13PM for a couple of hours… seems EXTREMELY stable. Not had an OS crash/Springboard crash So far. Heck, all of my apps work. Very impressed. Currently installing iPadOS 16 on my 12.9 iPP.

If anybody has any apps or features they would like me to download and test, let me know.

 

[FireRx]

So still no batt %. Number, why are they so against showing us the number

hmmm, mine is showing the battery level %

 

[swarlos]

It’s also bothering me that dark mode doesnt change this wallpaper! It does on iPad however.

I have been requesting this as a feature in the feedback app since iOS 13. I’m so happy right now.

They may have just slipped in & replaced the modules they needed 🤷🏽‍♂️

 

[nfl46]

I’m glad we can finally add multiple stops using Apple Maps! I’m surprised it took them this long to add this feature.

 

[RSmith2023]

So far, despite some little issues, I've had no crashes and core functionality (and all my apps) are working. Impressive!

I might risk the MacOS upgrade soon, even though I need my laptop to work for a presentation on Wednesday. I hope I don't have to restore ...

I can’t risk the macOS update until I get confirmation that VMware Horizon works properly (work). That’s usually what I wait for and it keeps me off for a few betas.

Lemme know

So far so good (re MacOS 13).

 

[TJ1]

12.9’ here and no Stage Manager.

Control centre

 

[adrianlondon]

Successfully installation on iPhone 11. everythng works so far app wise. the only deficit I found so far is the stock market ticker widget don't show in the widget window, but you can tap on it and still see you stocks you have with their current value. will send feedback on it.

Not checked my phone as don't have a large stock widget, but MacOS 13 had the same issue. Had to edit the widget and reselect the "watchlist". It now works fine. The same "fix" should work on iOS as the widgets are the same code.

 

[Jumpie]

I just had a keyboard crash a an automatic Feedback template popped up and captured everything. Just had to submit!
That’s nice!

tap on the widget

Props for the Radiohead collection. Reckoner is an awesome tune, will check out that remix

 

[TheColtr]

So far the iOS build is pretty good, despite causing a boot loop during OTA install. iPadOS is awesome! First impressions, I really like stage manager, I'm glad they did not limit it to when a trackpad is connected, and it feels just right. While I know it could run more than four apps overlapping, since the Mac can do it, on a screen that size I think four is appropriate.

I wasn’t hallucinating when the flashlight and camera shortcut on the home screen was different in the livestream right? I’m assuming that’s in an upcoming beta
