iOS 7.1 Beta 2 Bug Fixes and Changes

Assistive touch is still hit or miss but not as much as beta 1.

Everything else seems much more refined than before.

Animations are smooth as butter now.

Battery life is better than beta 1.

Touch ID is far more consistent now.

Dark keyboard is gone now, but I hope it comes back.

These are things I've noticed so far.

Edit: I'm on an iPhone 5s.

So happy about the animations being smoother and faster.

My battery life is fine but there's always room for improvement.

Again, Touch ID is fine for me and has only failed two or three times since I've had my 5s (got it on release)

Strange about the dark keyboard but I'm sure it will be back for the public release.

iOS 7.1 is looking fantastic so far.

Which color scheme is this or from where does it come?

It's taken directly from iOS 7. All the colours were found through colour-picking the UI elements in the apps and icons. What's more, all the icon gradients (roughly) derive from these colours.
 
Anybody else used udid.in is it a scam site as it says my iPad is registered but it's not when I try to activate it cost me £3 no big loss but just warning others if it's a scam site
 
Running b2 on my iPad mini. I didn't have a huge issue with the animations in 7.0.4; they were sluggish but didn't bother me. The difference in B2 is tremendous, however, and it makes the device feel like it's flying.

So far, no massive bugs either.
 
At first i thought the feeling of snappiness was just some sort of placebo, but went out today and got to borrow my friends 5 with 7.0.4 and did a side by side comparison with my 5 on beta 2. By god it's so much faster.

Can you make a video? Side-by-side.
 
I don't much care for the fact they moved the calendar to below tomorrow's events in the notification center. I liked being able to flick it down and see what upcoming meetings I had, now I need to scroll to see that
 
The Touch ID bug becoming unresponsive because of Twitter is fixed.

Overall I feel as if the fingerprint sensor is more responsive.
 
In the music app have they fixed the lanscace view? On 7.0.4 the album art turns black. Also the wonky control on the lock screen for music has that been fixed? There are time where I have controls on the lock screen then time I don't. Lastly has radio been fixed? I tell it not to play explicit language and it plays it anyway.
 
Guys, I haven't read most of the comments on this thread. Has the wallpaper bug been fixed, where you tap twice on wallpaper settings and it crashes?

How's 7.1 running on the iPad 2 and iPad 3? Is it much smoother or will I need to upgrade to the Air?

Phone does a weak little single vibration when receiving a text message while the app is open.

When screen is locked and turned off, it does a normal double buzz and a ding.

This is a minor thing that I've been wanting for a while. Really happy to see this.
 
I was a little hesitant about installing it, because of the bugs and whatnot on the iOS 7.0 betas. But I am so happy that I went through with it. It feels like a whole new device (iPad Air)

Just got to get the courage to install it on my iPhone 5s.
 
Well I hope I'm not jinxing myself but I haven't had 1 crash on my iPad air and it feels smoother and faster so for me beta 2 was well worth installing

I do not like how it does that. Sometimes I'll have my phone on a desk while I'm looking at something on my laptop or while reading a book or doing something else and I will miss the notification. The old way would vibrate enough to make a noise on a table, or I could hear the vibration motor go off. This new bug prevents me from hearing the cue that I got a new message.
 
Anybody seen this awesome feature/change in NC? Instead of the day view we have a list :)
