iOS 27 Beta 1 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[adrianlondon]

There are one or two comments on here about minor issues which are covered in the release notes.

They're worth a read. I wonder if new Siri can handle "Can't adjust new voices; is that a known issue in the release notes?". If not, then iOS 28 here we come.

Any interesting changes to try for EU users? Thinking of installing on my iPad Pro M4, but since there's no Siri AI for the moment, i dont know if have any incentives at the moment.

Make sure you have at least 1TB model cause Siri AI needs at least 12GB of RAM

Here it is in action!

Wtf mine don’t do that

I'll be curious to hear if this feels faster than IOS26 on your Base 13. According to the announcement, it should.

I would say yes. Phone is still indexing due to a info note in the settings but navigation overall feels a little bit lighter and less „heavy“ than before on the 13.

And one additional note:
Even with the iOS 27 DB1 there are still no Liquid Glass sliders in the clock app for the alarms.

AutoMix not working for anyone else? It’s greyed out on Apple Music - same as crossfade, which also isn’t working?

15PM.

anyone make it off the Siri Waitlist?

I'm wondering that too, is it just a few hours?

Wtf mine don’t do that

this is likely due to the hole punch camera in the foldable

they probably shouldn’t keep it there for all the devices but I wonder if they’ll maintain 2 code paths for long.

When did you join the waitlist? I'm updating my iPad Air right now, and I'm curious about how long it might be. Maybe by tommorow morning?

As soon as the beta was released I updated and then joined

Installed beta on my iPhone 12Mini lol. Still indexing. I’m don’t have a developer account, just a public beta, so not sure why I have access to the developer beta.

Crossfade set for me without issue on both iOS and MacOS 27.

Could be worth a reboot.

I got Siri app on my iPhone; but haven’t seen the updated Siri on  Watch

I actually think it’s because Notification Center is no longer accessible from the top, but now only from the left. The top is where Type to Siri AI is now accessed from.

Which phone do you have? If it doesn’t support Apple Intelligence, maybe it’s because you can still swipe from the top to access your Notification Center?

Reboot gave me nothing, still greyed out for both options.

So the 1st thing I notice after the install (via IPSW) was this. Prior to the update I had about 130GB free... 😳

Oh my gosh they circumcised and fattened the battery icon???

Care to share a screenshot please?

The new Siri for Apple Watch is coming in a later beta.

 

[imagineadam]

What do the “improved battery insights” look like in battery section?

And is the battery indicator actually different from iOS 26?

 

[Tokenfreak]

I wonder how they are picking who gets off the waiting list. I’ve been on it since the beta came out and I updated. Been waiting for several hours now.

 

[dk001]

Router/Modem puts out WiFi 2.4, 5, and 6. When I have the Air on 6 and walk far enough away it drops to 5, there is a noticeable lag as it switches from 6 to 5. Switching from 5 to 6 is hodgepodge. It may not switch till I am literally right in front of the device.

This is poor compared to 26.x.

 

[snakesayan]

I just installed iOS 27 on my iPad and it’s SOOOO much snappier and the Liquid Glass looks better! Im very tempted to install on my main iPhone 15 Pro just for the improvements!? Should I? Lol

 

[novagamer]

edit: nevermind.

health app needs to run through health things before health stuff shows up. that re-indexing hits a LOT of ****.

 

[jr866gooner]

Since updating to iOS27 beta I have a message badge that will not go away. I have no unread messages. I’ve turned badges off, did a restart, and turned it back on…no luck.

Also asked Siri to read all unread messages. Also no luck. Any tips?

Any unread in unknown senders filter section?

I didn't test this in iOS 26, but on my iPhone 17 ...

Music: Now Playing works in landscape.

Weather app also works in landscape.

The Messages and Mail app do work in landscape, but the layout is not useful.

FaceTime, the one app I wish did work in landscape, doesn't.
