Ugh, we small phone owners get shafted on the cool battery percentage icon.

But at least Safari text in tab view is readable again!

I'm keeping my🤞🏻for you mini owners and holding out hope that you guys get the new battery percentage by the time the final build rolls around..this was a surprise feature for this build, and likely something that's still being worked on so it might make its way to the mini in time.

Why have you labelled this as RC?

Because it has no beta number? But sure it's not RC version.

 

[MinimeJer05]

Worth it for the battery icon alone. About damn time.

 

[Press22]

Just came here to say I'm so happy battery percent is back.

Sadly, the UI bug still exists when receiving calls with screen locked. And when you maximize an incoming call banner while in Home Screen, you could see the buggy and slow animation. After two separate call tests the phone also became extremely hot.

Confused.

Updated iPhone 12 series modem firmware version (3.07.00) and Verizon carrier version (51.0.1) in Wiki post.

The indicator became a little bigger too.

First battery with a score of 69 wins a prize.

Wondering if the apparent acceleration in releases is due to iPad team helping out? I doubt it but you never know.

• T-Mobile - 50.7.21 > 51.0.1

What’s the UI bug?

I hope the Audio OS updates on the HomePods fixes the “ I have 1 timers set”

 

[Pearsey]

NEW FIRMWARES.

 

[Alhagar]

Wow, it's about ***** time they brought this back!

Not seeing this. Maybe 13 mini is too small?

For the first time I have to say I actually agree. Granted it’s only been a half hour but everything does seem more fluid and polished. Am not seeing the stutters I saw on B4. Editing the Lock Screen was particularly bad in the last Beta and this time it feels totally ironed out. Will see how it ends up after I get the chance to play with it a bit more.

Can anyone tell if the iCloud photo bug has been fixed?

 

[huanbrother]

What’s the UI bug?

This bug triggers in the following conditions
1. Receiving calls not registered in contacts when screen locked.
2. Trying to shut down the phone.
You can see that the overlays are mixed up in an unexpected way.

Still seeing random animations skipped, particularly when opening an app after a restart.

What’s the prize for 3rd, if 1st is a left nut? 😁

Looks like it’s OLED Screen devices only? - Mini. Wonder if 11 Pro has it 🤔 otherwise wtf Apple (my 12 Pro Max has it)
