This beta doesn’t feel as smooth as beta 3… 15PM. I know it’s “indexing”.. but beta 1 and 2 both felt smoother. Immediately after installing/booting up.
Got a tip for us?

I like when my system data goes from 1.8 GB to 25 GB
They removed the gesture where you can swipe in the middle of the screen in Safari to go forward and back. And I'm glad. That caused usability issues on some websites.
If it wouldn’t lag and stutter all the time it would be like a final version for me.
I am only surprised that many apps still use the old keyboard.

Immediately after installing and booting up is the time it's most likely to be laggy. It's better once you let it do its thing in the background. Hey, this is a trade off to installing all the betas. This is the life we chose to live.
Would guess we will also see something in between in the next betas.
As far as I know App Devs aren't allowed to update their apps to the App Store before a major iOS release. You'll have to dig through TestFlights to see any possible changes.
Yep. Don't have the little animation to make it larger (on 16 pro). Works fine on my M1 Pro.
Edit: Works with the standard font. Sent feedback to apple. Hopefully they open up all fonts to be enlarged.
Would guess that the apps itself probably need to use a newer SDK to get the new keyboard or it will be enabled by apple up until the final version.
This keyboard issue is also annoying, as it was the system default, I think it should change everywhere at the same time and there should be no need to update the applications for this.
That's right. iPhone 16 is only a 60 Hz display.
When I disable ProMotion, it is much worse on the Pro series. So it should be something between.
Beta 4 works really nice on my 15 pro. Don’t want to complaint so far. Really good.
The iPhone 16 is a 60z screen. Beta 4 did not change anything in regards to the refresh rate.
Not surprised since the apps haven't been officially updated yet.
I am so impressed with how they’re refining the look. The star’s distorted reflection on the search button is just.. 🤤 I can’t wait to see how all other apps would look with liquid glass 😍
It's a feature, not a bug. Apple Intelligence knows you don't want to talk to those people anyway.
