This is what happened to me with the Clownfish wallpaper. Didn’t have it at all on the day of install...checked the next morning and there it was!
Seems to be related to „reduce motion“ being turned on. Can’t use my iPhone without it being on. All the constant zoom in, zoom out effects when switching between apps makes me want to vomit haha
Activate the function you mention and indeed, it started to happen like you. They will fix it in the next versions.
on the previous occasion it came out just after updating with ipsw, but not this time. I'll have to wait an hour haha
Do you know their intent on how it’s supposed to work?
I actually love that it always asks. I don’t want apps reading my copy board without my permission.
Why can’t we press the small Lock Screen battery widget to display the battery settings? That would be, well basic and useful . So far it does nothing other than give a visual battery status, the % would be an improvement!
Having the same issue with Siri and Dictation on my iPhone 12 Pro Max. Works on my iPad. Irritating.

By the looks of it, I’m staying on DB3/PB1, which I use as a daily. It’s super stable for me and I’m not liking what others are posting on this release. Maybe I got a lucky install. And I use a lot less 3rd party apps than other users, which brings less issues.
@Pearsey @gwhizkids Yep I needed the new mobile device package also to update through finder .. !! thank you both for the help !!
Thanks, especially reading that connecting the device afterwards if I want to go back seems tricky. Although I would love to play with the new lock screen options.
I’ve downgraded so many times during betas it’s just natural. If you’re new to it and not comfortable, I’d probably wait another beta or so.
Messing with the lock screen is fun, but I see novelty wearing off pretty quick. It’s gonna wear off even quicker if you’re having issues and worried about stability. JMO and good luck with whatever you decide.
I've been running it on my Apple Watch Series 7, iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPad and have been surprised at how stable the OS' are. Some apps have crashed, but all work once reopened. Haven't had any issues, knock on wood (literally after typing this).
Steering clear of Ventura until its 2nd official update. MacOS betas can be nightmares.

The lock screen will get more fun again when third-party apps become available. I understand a number are in beta now so hopefully we'll get a bunch right at launch.
Couldn’t agree more. Pretty limited now. Should improve tremendously.
