iOS 27 Beta 6 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[sleepngbear]

Just got Beta 4 on iPhone and iPad (I’m not getting the Dev betas, so I don’t know how that affects things). I didn’t encounter any issues on my phone, but the unresponsive area in the browser and a few game apps on the iPad seems to be fixed. Nothing else new that I’ve seen yet, but I only just started tearing through it a few minutes ago. All looks good so far.

I know I’m late to the game with this updated icon, but do the circles on the reminders app trigger anyone else’s trypophobia?

To be honest, if you hadn't pointed out the “jumping” search bar in Spotlight search bug, I'm not sure I'd ever have spotted it. I'm completely fine with small visual bugs like this.

Exactly! and it is a beta, this is shaping up to be an awesome release once optimised and polished!

It has only been 12 hours, but my phone is still indexing after installing B6 on my 16PM. Has anyone had the indexing process finish yet on their phone?

I couldn’t agree more on my 12P I don’t get the new Siri but use old Siri for setting reminders and timers and adding items to my shopping list texting etc everything else I simply use Googles Gemini through safari and I’m very happy.

This is an unexpected benefit. I never actually minded ‘old’ Siri. It does the very limited amount of things I expect from it. Claude can do the rest.

As a first time user of iOS 27, I’m delighted with it! It feels like a very polished version of
iOS 26. If Apple released beta 6 as the final version, I’d be more than happy.

It’s good to have iOS back to being a great OS. Version 26 felt rough for a long time and even when they got rid of the bugs, it didn’t quite cut the mustard. Version 27 ‘feels’ very nice indeed.

got this notification on my 17 Pro. I guess it's a new feature on iOS 27.

I pay close attention to the things I like and use a lot. 😉

If you had seen my original message the previous poster was referring to, you would see that it begins with:

“A good beta, all of my previously reported bugs were fixed.”

My role as a beta tester is to find as many bugs and imperfections as possible and report them to Apple, so when the final iOS release goes to the general public, it can indeed become “an awesome release once optimised and polished!”. So, the way I see it, I am actually doing my part in helping Apple with optimising and polishing. 😉

Both a blessing and a curse 😜

Dev Beta 6 and Public Beta 4 have the exact same build number, so nothing affects anything here

Oh yes. Looking so good this year.

Everything is more polished and snappier, with no graphical glitches. That’s all I can confirm for now.
