iOS 6 Beta 3: New Features & Improvements Thread

Motorway signs in the UK are blue, smaller main roads are green, and one lane roads and streets are white.

That is true, full motorways do use blue signs. I forgot about that because the largest roads we have near us are dual-carriageways which are green. Prefer the green personally. would be good if this was a setting but i cant see that being important to apple!

I seem to have found an interesting post on another blog which shows all changes with pictures. Really helpful. It's contstantly being updated with the new beta 3 changes. Thought I'd share it here.

If I'm breaking a rule by doing this, please be gentle. I'm new and didn't mean to!

Somehow I'm still not getting smart banners. Does it have something to do with the App Store country it's logged into or location? I'm in Singapore using the Singapore App Store.

I'm not getting them too. I'm in the UK. I tried to visit Yelp like in the Keynote, but nothing happened.

I don't get the argument that you two are having - or at least the one that you are trying to provoke (and please lay off the personal attacks - it's neither big nor clever). On the lock screen, it makes perfect sense to me, (and presumably to the vast majority, as I've never heard or seen anyone complain about this before) that notifications are in the order that they arrived in. And on the basis that most people actually use their iPhones/iPads, as soon as you unlock it the notifications disappear! Funnily enough, if you want to look at them again, in the order that you've selected in Settings, you simply swipe down... Bingo!

I agree the argument was silly, but I have not been the instigator here. I simply posted about a feature that I'd like to see implemented in ios6 and he jumped on me to basically say it was not a useful feature and that he disagrees with my definition of jumbled...and then obsessively argued with me about it.

And to argue that it's not a useful feature or that you've never seen it before makes no sense, as it is part of both lockinfo and intelliscreen x, which are 2 of the most popular jailbreak apps out there. I'd bet Android phones give this option as well. I can't imagine that on a Mac forum you guys have never heard of this unless you are not looking around at what's out there.

Yes I know I can just unlock my phone and go to the notification center, but I'd prefer the quick peek without having to unlock my phone. Just a personal preference.

Odd.

I never said it was not a useful feature. Nice attempt to revise history there. I actually even said something about maybe it would be good to have the option for people like you..... Go back and look at my post if you like....

Well in all fairness, yes I see it was someone else who said wasn't a useful feature.

Anyway, back on topic...how about those lock screen notifications, huh?

I found one more fix and one persisting error, but I will go to discuss it on the proper forum.

Hadn't seen this before, but apple stores show up on maps with an apple logo.

Sorry if this has already been said, but....
In Safari, if you hold down the back button, your history pops up.

And if you hold the forward button, same thing.

Also one more bug i have noticed is that every time i go on the Gamecenter app i always get the FaceBook Recommendation pop-up. And it get really annoying after i keep saying later. They should fix it. I think that's been there since beta 1 and it's really annoying. I don't know if anyone else finds it annoying.

It's damn annoying lol. I wish Apple would fix that too.
 
If you use Siri with a Bluetooth headset, you see a little blue icon for changing channels (iPhone, headset). New feature!
