Since updating to Beta 2 on my iPhone 5, I have been experiencing random crashes where the phone reboots about once every two days. I also have been having a problem with the phone becoming unresponsive and certain apps freezing. Sometimes the wallpaper on my homescreen will disappear and then reappear.

My iphone 5 does same exact thing seems like more bugs in this beta
 
Hope they add automatic switching to Voice Control when there's no Internet connection available for Siri. It's annoying.

Yep, it's really bad. At first I thought Apple would quickly release another beta to fix these issues but no...

Performance is enhanced in beta 2, animations are smoother, etc but yeah there's a lot more system wide crashes. It's only beta 2, but the signs for the GM are promising thus far. I'm back on iOS 6, but that's what I do ... I try out the latest beta for a few days, then go back to iOS 6 until the next beta.

It's great to watch the progress of the new version of iOS, you appreciate the effort that goes into it a little more I feel.
 
I noticed today when I used Siri that her voice changed. She's less robotic and speaks with a lot of natural inflections. It surprised me because the voice quality was so bad when beta 2 was released.

It's certainly not usable enough for a daily device, at least in my opinion, but then it's not supposed to be. Personally speaking, my online banking app doesn't work with beta 2 so that's why I took iOS 7 off my 4S within an hour or so after playing around with it.

As I said, the latest beta is a nice indication of where we're headed, I'm looking forward to the final release.
 
I know this was mentioned previously, but I figured out how to replicate it.

Start safari. Turn the phone to landscape mode. Turn off the screen via power button. Turn your phone in portrait orientation. Turn the screen back on, slide to unlock and then quickly press the home button.

You can change the name and color of your individual calendars now in the app. I believe you could only do this from a computer before. I know the calendar is seriously lacking, but I have high hopes that it's not finished.

Cool...good find. Yeah I seriously doubt they are going to add any other features at this point their effort is on fixing what's broken. Really wish they would allow you to forward a meeting invite or reply-all to the mtg recipients. Funny since Apple mentions the advanced features of iOS 7 for business users!

I just want to be able to see if there is an event or not by just looking at month view. I just can't believe they left that out. I really hope it's added back.

Something like this from another thread...
