Haven't noticed that but have seen what may be a bug in Siri.

If you tell it to send a text/iMessage it says "ok I'll send that" and the Siri screen stays there with the message on it. It looks like it's hung but the message is actually sent. It seems like Siri should disappear once the message has gone but it's the first time I've used it so may be wrong

iPhone 4s, I can't seem to get my past purchases to show up in the appstore. Crashes the appstore app after a long wait.

Don't know if this is a glitch, but most apps have the colour-adjusted status bar (is that what it's called?) but when I open Safari, the status bar remains black.

There still seems to be a bug in how iTunes Match is handled.

For instance,

If I synch 5 playlists, disconnect my phone, then turn on Match
Now, I want to add a new playlist to actually load on my phone.

I turn off Match on the phone, add playlist and synch.

On Beta4, the songs would still be on my phone but I couldn't see them in the music app.

Now, the songs are still there and I can access them, but all my playlists disappear except for the new one I just synched.

I've noticed a bug where if I'm in an app and I get a text message notification, the notification banner will stay at the top until I exit the app I'm in and go back to the home screen.

Not sure if it's just my 4S, but on GM I have a delay when I click on my home button. Its only on iOS 6. :confused:

I don't have iOS 6, but it's always done that with iOS 5. I agree that it should close Siri when it's sent or have Siri ask, "Is there anything else?"

I have been trying out the GM on my 4th gen iPod touch, really disappointed, extremely slow, numerous display bugs (mainly in iTunes and App store) and sync issues (Greyed out all my songs, had to sync again to get them to play... not sure why)

I'm guessing the new HTML based App Store and iTunes bugs are going to be fixed before release (i.e. they're not app problems), but we'll have to wait and see.

Can anyone confirm if they fixed the issue of third-party audio degradation? My low-quality Spotify is making me nuts.

Yes! Me too. I noticed this while in a call.

Also when I receive texts the screen lights up but I don't hear the notification. This only happens to a few contacts. I've checked every setting I can think of. I'll wait for the official release and restore then to see if this gets fixed.

The bug is still there that locks you into a web app if you keep switching to different web apps/full screen pages
You have to do a hard boot to get back

I still have a few (small) issues, but I installed iOS 6 GM and then restored from my backup from beta, so I'm not sure which of the issues carried over. But still, iOS 6 is very fast and consistent overall. Can't wait to use it on the iPhone 5 Friday :)

I have noticed that so far the "new" AppStore is not good and gets worse every day. The search for me just doesn't work at all and constantly messes up and the updates are unreliable at best.

In the same vane has anyone else noticed that when installing apps it doesn't install the newest version? I keep installing apps and immediately they show an update from days ago in the update tab.
