I knew something was wrong but couldn’t pinpoint it. The Moon Phases in the Weather Widget are wrong but the rise and set times are correct.

The phantom U2 auto play album is back.
It did this for a while off and on since iOS13. Was gone early in iOS15. Now it is apparently back with beta 4.

I don’t have an Apple Music subscription - don’t use it.
I don’t have this specific U2 album anywhere.
Yet at random times my 13 ProMax will start playing it.
Well, heckfire, is this the U2 album they forcefully gave everyone free several years ago?

Edit: yes it is https://m.republicworld.com/enterta...-songs-of-innocence-on-itunes-subscibers.html

No. You should just be able to start using the keyboard as you are dictating. Nothing else to do.

Are you continuously holding the microphone button as you dictate? You don’t need to do that if you are.
I have the same issue. Typing while dictating is not available.
EDIT: Seems to work now. Press the mic button once. It gets a dark overlay and I can dictate and type in one proces. Neat!

Yes however I don’t use Apple Music and it isn’t downloaded anywhere why does it randomly just start playing?
It was free…from Apple…free from Apple. Those words don’t go together very often. Be thankful!

That being said, even if you don’t use Apple Music, you still got it free and since it’s the only thing you might have, I’m guessing it starts playing just because. 🤷🏼‍♂️ best I got

Anyone else experiencing extremely poor performance on a XS? Specifically relating to overheating and poor battery life? Have 20 GB free on a 256GB device.

Works for me fine. Used it a fair amount

Are you disconnecting from headphones? I get it often where I disconnect my headphones and then music starts playing.

That used to be it but with this latest round it is other times also.
Was on a call - speakerphone - hung up and phone went to lockscreen. Then I started hearing music.

Either that song Apple has it embedded on device somewhere I cannot see or delete it or it is coming from Apple via internet.
Not sure which is more concerning.

I press the button once and the old style of dictation comes up. Probably a bug, feedback filed.

Still can’t update Wi-Fi DNS details, all seem to get my home Wi-Fi settings applied and won’t update if I try to switch it to automatic.

out of nowhere I get consumption in the background, without apps, I don't understand why it is. And on the clock, music is continuously downloading songs. Now I had 495 songs downloaded, it occupied almost 5Gb and when entering the app, there are no songs. nothing has been downloaded on the iphone either. this beta 4, at least in the series 7, is a major disaster between this and the excessive consumption of the battery.
 
So far for me…

battery decent on 13P and iPP

cant sign in to Feedback Assistant on iPhone

tap to wake takes multiple taps and sometimes stutters

podcasts occasionally cuts in and out every few seconds

I miss my battery percentage progress on LS while charging

Siri is dumb, but she’s probably overwhelmed with all the changes

only one respring right after I had restarted my phone manually (PB1)

Safari has only acted up on iPhone (no FC, just unresponsive/freezing)

shutting down phone w/volume up and sleep button causes the shutdown screen to overlap home screen instead of going to its own screen
The tap to wake bug is annoying. So far this has been the buggiest release for me.
 
Jesus f***ing christ I hate Dark Sky so much! Not once it has showed that its raining, not a single time. Right now there is pretty heavy rain and Weather app shows cloudy with 0% chance of rain.

The Weather Channel was billion times better, now this **** called Dark Sky is forcefully shoved down to our throats, wether you like it or not.

This is pissing me off!

Reported this to Apple.

Dark Sky has been great for me, I subscribed years ago. Highly accurate down to 5min warning for rain in Winter. I live in the SF Bay Area, other locations might have different accuracy.
