Anyone else having issues with Siri and settings timers? It just tells me "I didnt catch that. Can you try again?" My Watch just searches the web, very strange

Apple developers need to watch this video, and realize what needed revising and changed in iOS. I don't mean to diss Apple, but this video actually makes some good points on things that just seem outdated or not well thought out that would benefit from fresh approach. I thought iOS would get these kind of revisions for iOS 26, not just a silly transparent theme.

This has been posted a few times.

The solution, or workaround depending on how you view things, is to be more assertive.

"Hey Siri, one hour"

"Hey Siri, 45 minute timer"

I hope the same, but it’s something visual so I don’t know how can they refine it in any other way than the one they’re actually doing (toning it down). It’s not like a performance issue that can be fixed without visual changes.

Just let the user adjust the transparency, but this might be a lot of work from a developer's perspective

Total 💩. B3 is a little better, but I am still not sure how all of a sudden my fingers after being on iPhone since the original, are hitting V, B and N. Also, O and P are hard to click unless younarev (you can see N and V) hitting them straight on.

My problem is with the “.” placed close to the space bar when typing URLs. Searching for “cat plush toys” will always come up “cat.plush.toys” with my muscle memory…

I realize this is the first morning after we installed the beta yesterday afternoon. However.

Has anyone’s phone successfully charged wirelessly overnight back to 100%?

Once again, 2.5 hours on a MagSafe2 charger should have been more than plenty to have taken my 15 PM from 40% to 100%.

The 90% I woke up to is an improvement over the last two betas, but it still means I’m going to have to plug in like a peasant to make it through the day (not that I wouldn’t have to anyway, battery life has been a joke since the first 18.0 beta, but at least it would charge to full, wirelessly).

Mine charged wirelessly to 100%. I've never had the other iOS 26 betas. B3 was my first. Used older Apple MagSafe charger.

Also, this morning, I was at 96% on aftermarket wireless charger when I removed the phone.

I was experiencing this exact same issue, but now my Apple Music home page has refreshed and the “Apple Music Ten Years Top Songs” isn’t in that slot anymore and everything looks fine… so maybe it was just a glitch with that particular playlist.

I'm missing the "Search" field in the Contacts. Anyone else experiencing this issue? It's available in the Last Calls list, but not in the contacts. In was there in Beta 2. Anyone?
