Kindle still doesn't work and volume seems lower.

I have iTranslate and SayHi on my phone. How's Siri supposed to know which one I want if I simply say "Translate?"

It's not similar to what Malkovich said because he was basically asking for something open ended. Joke could return an infinite number of responses. When I need the specificity of launching a single app I'm likely going to have to be more definitive in my utterance for accurate results.

If you had said "Translate" in that circumstance Siri provided you with the option to choose between apps.

If you need to be more specific in launching an app, how is saying 'launch' going to help you?

That's a fail. At this point I've now had to take two steps.

1. Utter "Translate"
2. Choose from 2 or more apps

as compared to

"Open iTranslate"
"Open SayHi"

Single step.

Single word utterances only work for open ended queries like "Weather" "Jokes" and other items but they fail if you're looking to launch specific app.

"Photos"

Siri - "Do you want me to launch iPhoto, photos app, Camera+, Instagram"

Just isn't going to pass muster for simplicity

Maps in 3D mode is laggier than ever it seems.

-When going through a long history of text messages with someone, deleting specific texts takes you ALL the way back to the bottom. This can be rather annoying when you are dealing with messages in a specific time from as you have to scroll all the way back through and find your spot.

I noticed this in beta 1.

Thats not how beta 1 Siri would have handled it. If you haven't had experience with both versions of Siri then you can only speculate so I can't blame you for your misunderstanding.

It doesn't matter now, it has changed. Was simply a much more efficient way of operating.

Most of the bugs seem to be fixed by a normal reboot.

Try it and let me know.

Siri is not working anymore. Everything I can say will result like she doesn't understand and Siri was working fine in beta 1.

iPhone 4S and New iPad 4G with French (Canada).

Noticed a HUGE bug. If you attempt to add an app to a folder with the maximum amount, the apps will simply disappear.

When trying to upload photos to a webpage there is a large amount of lag at the camera roll.

Can anyone else confirm this?

Yes, same for me.

Does not happen for me.

In beta 1 you could say, "Photos", and she would open it???

----------

Change after reboot!


Check out the app store.

Updates in the middle.
Top 25 on right.

My app store (even after multiple reboots) still looks the same as it did. Updates is also at the end and Top Charts is 2nd from the right.

Fun thing to do. Go to brightness and watch the bar change!
Brightness seems to be fixed!

After multiple reboots mine is still different weird. You have a 4S?
And USA?

Kindle still doesn't work and volume seems lower.

Kindle 3.0.1 works perfectly on beta 2, Kindle 3.1 still doesn't work to be more exact. Fortunately I still kept the old version.

I noticed a very quick battery drain while on a phone call for 45 seconds.
Went from 10% to 2%.

Hi Guys,

Just upgraded to Beta 2 and Siri's voice has gone very low quality for me on my iPhone 4S, anyone else noticed this problem or am I all on my lonesome?!

Cheers

I've had just the opposite effect, actually. When I had beta 1 siri's voice was terrible quality, and when I launched beta 2 it was as well… A couple minutes later it finally when HQ.

Still no AirPrint Unless my iPad running 5.1.1 is searching for my printer, then my iPhone will find it, strange. Same as beta 1.

 

[Tyler23]

Started downloading and it said 5 minutes remaining..now says 4 hours. What gives? I'm going to be away from wifi in 40 minutes, what will happen if it doesn't finish by then?

 

[Can Inelli]

I already rebooted twice but I still haven't got the new Twitter Logo or the New App Store etc. ? What do you guys think ? Do I just have to wait ? Does not makes sense...
