Anyone notice (if you haven’t already) no more geofence arrow? And the mention of it in Settings>Privacy & Security>Location Services>System Services, is gone completely. Are we just not suppose to know any longer if we have apps checking location at intervals or by location?

Turns out it just took a very long time to process the data, after about 10-15 minutes it all appeared, I do have 6 years of daily data, work outs etc.

Thanks for coming back to me! May hit the button over the weekend then.

F*** this worked one time the first day and has not worked since.. go back to what you were doing nothing to see here.

Do you want a cuddle?

But wash your hands first 😆😂

Howdy! Is there any way to install iOS 15.6 RC? I'm only seeing a beta profile for the iOS 16?

How everyone battery life on 13 PM?

So, there is really no way to go back to the new Apple Wallpaper Gallery to only change the wallpaper of the Home Screen, without adding another lockscreen? How dumb, all they would need is another button to go back to the wallpaper gallery. Right now it looks like you can only edit a Home Screen and pick a different photo from your own photo library. However, even with that you don’t have access to the wallpaper settings like making the wallpaper blurry

I'd just wait til Monday. The public release will almost certainly be released then.

I had similar thoughts as well. Love the customizations, but they really need to work on streamlining the entire wallpaper interface. I've endlessly fiddled with it to figure it out well, but the whole thing is unusually unintuitive for Apple

Would also love to be able to adjust the wallpaper blur for the Home Screen wallpapers. Apple's default blur is extremely strong so I hope I can tone that down in the future.

My suspicion is that will be possible once ios 16 is released publicly. It's still an early beta and a brand new feature.

Its really not fair to be poking Apple at this stage of the game for how new features work. File feedback and if it's still this way on public release, then let 'em have it. But until then, we're playing in their sandbox and have to see how things go.

Already done my friend. I've been filing feedback and bug reports left right and center 😆

the iOS device required for download greyed out?

Oops I didn’t see that.

Does anyone know how to stop this on this ios16b3… It ONLY pops up when I open text from wife and it stays on screen when I close out messages. If I click on it it open Notes.app…

That’s a quick note. You must have activated that in Control Center somehow. Go to Settings, Control Center and remove it from Control Center toggles.

I can’t get that little slide over button (on the right side of your screen shot) to show up. Anyone else?

Mine has been pretty poor compared to iOS 16 beta 2 even. I chalked the first few days up to indexing, etc. after installing beta 3 freshly. But it hasn't gotten much better.

My full screen Now Playing stopped working with Spotify for some reason too.

 

[H3LL5P4WN]

Did you install the beta profile? There is a new public beta for HomePod mini that's not available for the OG HomePod but will be in later betas. Perhaps that's what you're seeing.

Oooh. I was unaware; I didn’t see any posts on the front page about it. Thanks!

**EDIT**

Was never activated… 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

I think she has installed spyware on your device

Anyone lose the new music look when on the Lock Screen? I had it first day of beta 3 but it won’t reappear since.

Not anymore, from Apple. :-(
Final version will probably come out today (Friday) or early next week.

That’s WAY above her head lol
