I can't remember the feature name, but the live game scores. Is this working currently in the beta or any of the older ones? I can't remember if this is a launch feature or later in the fall feature.

That's a later feature. Probably timed to coincide with iPhone 14 Pro/always on display.

No release notes?

They usually come an hour or so after the release.

Battery widget on Lock Screen doesn’t flicker anymore when Face ID is activated.

 

[srbNYC]

I see a Home widget option for the Lock Screen, don't recall if that was there before.

New Stage Manager onboarding. However, the feature seems to be quite broken in this beta.

They fixed the globe wallpaper so the widgets don't overlap the globe

When you open up, does the globe on Home Screen look less detailed? Or it is just me? Plus the removed the green location dot. It used to be in the yellow circle since I’m in Atlanta.

@5425642 - looks like the page on apple's site is still showing Beta 2 notes, even though the nav is labelled for Beta 3

I don't think it's less detailed, I just think there's a lot of cloud cover obscuring things.

There's still a green dot when locked, just not on the Home Screen anymore.

Nearby Interaction and sensors new?

 

[uandme72]

When you know em, Firmware versions and carriers could do with an update guys. Looks like beta 2 was quite out of date too.

What do you imply ? Do we have an updated firmware and carrier version or not ?

It's now possible to delete multiple WiFi networks, rather than one by one, from within WiFi settings. Bug existed since this new feature was enabled (first beta).

 

[OhMyMy]

Interaction with nearby devices new?
View attachment 2026851

Nearby interactions has been there since iOS 14 I believe.

 

[uandme72]

This view is updated yet again.

What changes you find from previous version ?

Folks, screenshots without a hint of what you're trying to show us aren't that helpful. 😜 It's a little like Highlights for Children looking for what you want us to see.

 

[uandme72]

A handful of apps I use that seemed to have issues with network delays on launch/resume in beta 2 appear to be working fine now in beta 3, at least in the few minutes after the update finished.

Can you name a few apps which have now started to work fine ?

Label names are attached to the symbol/glyph now!

 

[Pearsey]

Long press short cuts animations now working smoother and without glitches and gaps in the icons. Was originally reported in beta 1.

Syncing iPhone to Finder on Mac now working again.

Broken how? Stage Manager seems responsive for me… this particular beta seems better than the previous betas.
