IPad Pro 11
App Store avatar vanished. Still there on my 13PM.
Now just a blue circle.

While using CarPlay on my way home from work, I received a text and Siri would not read it aloud for nothing. I pressed play again multiple times and nothing.

This happened to me with my iCloud info at the top of the Settings app. It came back after quitting the app and reopening.

Still no update for my AW Ultra.

My iCloud avatar for Settings is different than App Store . Different account.

Tried it anyway. No help 🙁

Does anyone know how to get a slightly transparent clock widget in this beta? It looks like it's been updated. It looks fantastic! ⌚️

If you select the clock widget there are now 3 options you can choose from.

I guess I’ll keep on checking. Thanks!

Try restarting your watch and check a few times after you restart. That’s what I did and it finally showed up.

When I switched to Appleseed beta it showed up.

I don't like now on video playback I can't swipe to rewind of fast forward anymore and have to swipe strictly on the time bar to do it. It was a big improvement on iOS 16....just to remove it one year later.

Installed fairly quickly. Issue I am having is that messages are not giving me notifications. If I go into the message app they are there. Emails and others are fine. Restarted already as well.

This seems like a solid beta so far aside from the issue with images in Safari and the Amazon app appearing like they are in HDR. Interestingly, this doesn't show up on a screen capture. Relatively minor thing.

I don't know why but in notifications in messages it was turned off. Seems some settings were changed automatically.

20 builds ahead from beta 1, nice.

Probably a dumb question, do we know what constitutes a build? Like what factors have to be met for them to click over and say mmm yes this is good lol.

Messages sync broke with beta 1 for me, only the green (SMS). Blue always worked. I use an iPad Mac and iPhone to text often to many mixed groups.. and that was tough to deal with. Only the iPhone kept up correctly, the Mac and iPad just didn't work right.. anyone see this fixed yet?

I'll find out tomorrow when I'm back at it.. but I'm curious: did anyone even have this problem? I haven't noticed it mentioned in the threads

this keyboard popping up in certain apps , not even fully loaded is pretty annoying. 😆😆

 

[kecinzer]

Is there any real fix for not enough space issue? I rebooted many times, but I cant still update that need 14GB space.

 

[Pearsey]

Not a single bug so far, iPhone 14 Pro. Knock on wood.

I’ve seen more in the last 5 mins just performing normal habits with my phone …

• Keyboard has a mind of its own in WhatsApp, IMessage, safari… and doesn’t fully load predictive text bar, just pops up.

• Icons low res, memory issue, in safari.

Strap in people! 🎢

 

[kvlq]

Can confirm, the most irritating issue is with the keyboard! It’s still a mess, I don’t know how they missed to fix maybe one of the biggest bugs from b1.

Overnight battery drain seems to be better. No apps using background activity all night.

 

[nortonandreev]

Not again…

 

[s2mike]

Yep. Already experienced multiple issues with the Now Playing platter.

There’s a dedicated chat room for this…
