One other annoying thing is when you look at a single app then go back to the main store app listings the store takes you right to the top of the listings again. So if you were 4 pages into the apps you'd have to browse from the top all over again.

Does anyone know if this has been fixed? For example, go 3 pages into the top free apps and click an app to read its description. Then exit out of that description and see if you stay where that app was in the store listings or if the store takes you all the way to the beginning again. Also try this in the Genius listings too if you could be so kind.

Thanks

...maybe I am doing this wrong but this does NOT happen in IOS 5. If I read the description of the app and then exit back to the list - it stays exactly where I was before I read the description.
 
I can't seem to get turn by turn GPS data on my iPhone 4S in Canada. All I get is an overview of the route. Siri doesn't dictate the turns either. Anyone else experiencing this. Installed using the restore method.
 
Oh, a swedish girl!

Hallå! Första gången man stöter på en svensk här, det var lite coolt :D

Jag har hängt här ett tag, finns säkert fler brudar också men kanske med inte lika uppenbara namn :)

English: swedish OT :)

Thank you so much! Well, I gotta say... It took Google ages to put the names in Arabic, so Apple is in the right step. And I see that they have a few POI's. But I guess once I get iOS 6 I'll have to report each day so that they would change the name from Libanon to Lebanon. It's like saying Germani instead of Germany :p
And what happens if you tap on the green car icon? Isn't that for navigation?

It might just be that Lebanon is spelled "Libanon" in my language (Swedish) ;-) I don't know, maybe someone else can confirm or I will change system language later and check myself :)

Same problem here. Turn by turn doesn't run in full screen like the preview page on apple.com and doesn't run on the lockscreen either. Also, no traffic data.

Edit: Also in Canada on the iPhone 4S.

Works full screen on mine and lock screen, the latter was temperamental at first.
How well does it cope describing going round the Robin Hood "roundabout" though ;) Lots of nav systems have trouble with that. My Mercedes told me to "turn half right off the square" which made absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Was this mentioned? Apps now have the full version history (with release notes) available from their page on the App Store:

It is silly but I love this. I really liked reading it what was truly changed when I used the Android MP. Very good addition I think.
 
Looks good, can't wait to update! At the same time I'm hesitant to upgrade right away because x.0 releases are almost always buggy with Apple.

I dig the new dark look they've got going on, Can't wait to update the App store on the iPad, so obnoxious downloading apps and having it push you out to the home screen. Whoever thought that was a great idea should be fired!

Hopefully they'll spread the dark look more across the UI and reduce/eliminate the baby blue look.

Thanks guys for all the screen shots.
 
Also - not having the AppStore App close each time an App is downloaded is good.

Yeah absolutely obnoxious and is the big reason why I still use iTunes on my PC to sync my iPad/iPod Touch with new apps.

Is there any new gestures to iOS 6?
 
Huge list

Hey there,
I made a list after a lot of search on the web with all the features and the small details of iOS 6 Beta i came across. I took some pictures of you to make this list,and i have all the sources at the end of the page.

You can find the list here. If you like it then share it away, and also if you have some more features or small details you have found comment in this post or send me an email.
 
What happend when you are set to "Do not distrub" and someone calls you or texts you, if they are not on the approved list I know it wont alert you but when you turn the Do not disturb off, can you see your missed calls or texts?

yes.

and besides, the notifications are there even without turning off Do Not Disturb, its just that the screen doesnt turn off.

So if you were to go into notification center during do not disturb, all your notifications would be there
 
App update download and install progress now shows in store, with option to open when complete.

Installed Apps also have the "open" button instead of "installed"

Sorry if it's been mentioned, but FINALLY you are no longer thrown out of the store when you install an app. That always really bugged me.
 
When receiving a photo thru iMessage/text message it takes a second or two to download but the pictures seem to look better.
 
It's now possible to open unlimited number of tabs in Safari on iPad. They appear in a popover if there are too many to display.
 
are you able to hide the newsstand app or any other apple apps for that matter? At least put newsstand in a folder?

No, you cannot, sadly.

Even while in full screen ( no top or bottom bars )while surfing on safari, tapping the top of the screen still brings you to the top of the page.

geez! I still don't understand the reasoning for keeping newsstand or any apps on our screen if we do not use it. thanks for checking. I guess we cannot 'force' the app into a folder either like before?
 
Turn by turn works in the UK. 3D works everywhere i.e. the map tilts but there are no 3D buildings/terrain that I can find anywhere

San Francisco, Sydney. Those are the only ones I've seen. It will be some time before we know which cities have it since Apple didn't give us a list.

It's worth noting that the map app crashes quite a bit when moving around in 3D. Not surprising given its a beta.
