Finally indexing completed.

Was this announced or anyone notice yet? I'm pretty sure it's new and about time!

Index still in progress: Anyone else? Thought it would be finished overnight but no. Only concern is if it needs to be triggered as complete before your device is eligible to come off the AI waitlist. That would suck.

So far very stable and battery life is good on 17 Pro.

Did you entered the Home App before upgrading AppleTV? Did you notice functionality diferences before and after? With iOS 27 and TVOS26 and TVOS27?

No differences before updating Apple TV

How did you get access to a US Apple ID? Or were you able to convert yours somehow? I can live with not getting new AI features, but im very curious how you got it to work and if I theoretically could do it too if I felt the need. Or just feel bored.

I have one from the past, don't know how easy is to create one today. It's not my main one.

You mean in functionality right? Because the UI is already different, as far as the cameras interface goes.

Reddit and all these iOS related posts are really the hell. Honestly I’m considering to delete Reddit mostly because of this.

It's improving as people vote down, or whatever it's called when you want to tell someone they're an idiot*, and Reddit still seems very useful.

* Or they're smart and you're the idiot. It's 50/50 😁

Low power mode is so much better on iOS 27 than iOS 26. Once I hit 20%, I didn’t even notice my automation turned the setting on at first. iOS 26’s low power mode was pathetic.

Air still indexing.

Audio EQ: Is the new manual EQ hiding somewhere? Can't find it so wondering if it's not implemented yet.

17 PM. Still indexing but I turn off my phone at night. Probably would've finished if I left it on. The whole must be plugged in is not ideal.

I don‘t really see a point in installing this outside it having insane stability and performance improvements being located in the EU. 90% of the showcase is stuff not launching here, so you essentially install this for a dedicated liquid glass slider.

Please someone check for any RCS improvements… I really hope Apple ships proper UP 3.0 support with this release. Feel free to quote me with tidbits if you have any, highly appreciate it.

I would need my carrier Vodafone uk to support RCS on iPhone first lol 😂

How long did it take as my iPad is still indexing

I'm also seeing this toggle in iOS and iPadOS. It is in the Mail app settings.

Same. I installed it immediately after it became available.

I left mine on overnight and on a wireless charger. It's still indexing (base iPhone 17).

It’s been about 15 hours, and my 17 PM is still indexing, still on the Siri wait list as well.

Phone is cool and fast, so I have no idea what it’s indexing if it’s still doing it, but really slowly. I did reboot the phone a few hours ago, but that indexing popped back up when I opened settings.

Aftermarket or OEM?

If OEM, what car?

Wireless carplay with a 2025 bmw x5

Installed on my spare iPhone 13 Mini and it is actually quite snappier than the latest iOS 26.5.1 and that’s not sarcasm. For the first dev beta 1 release, that’s impressive considering where we were last year.

Iirc iOS 26 was almost unusable for a month in the beta periods last summer.

 

[Sbishop84]

iPhone is still indexing almost 12 hours later?

Anyone same?

17 Pro Max.

I didn’t get a message to say mine was indexing at all.

iPhone Mirroring is broken for me. iPhone Air on ios 27 and m4 Pro on 26.5.1

Same here. macOS 27 Beta 1 + iOS 27 Beta 1 and iPhone Mirroring keeps dropping with "connection interrupted". Tried disabling VPN and changing Private Wi-Fi Address to Rotating but no luck so far. Hopefully Beta 2 fixes this.

Yeah I just updated and mine isn't indexing either. I did however join the Siri waitlist.

update - indexing just started

My watch stayed on 26.5 and iPhone is on 27, now I can’t ping my watch from my phone. Not sure if it’s a bug or it’s due to version discrepancy.

Almost all of my 3rd party icons are unchanged, but yikes Yoink:
