iOS 7 Beta 1: Bugs and Problems

I have had the occasional incoming iMessage/SMS hide under the keyboard. Got to swipe up to reveal the message
 
Good Enterprise App

Has anyone installed iOS 7 Beta 1 and also have the Good Enterprise app? Wondering if the beta interferes with the functionality of the Good App.
 
In Music App - when you browse by Artist - you can't play all songs by that artist, if you pick a song it will only play songs from that album.

Unless I am doing something wrong!

I have it installed and there are no major issues. Some minor issues with the built in keyboard, but minor. Using a iphone 5
 
iPhone 5 user here. I've noticed with iOS 7 b1 that it takes what feels like an eternity to get to the home screen when you hit the home button. I realize it's not literally so, but compared to iOS 6 it's quite delayed from the time you hit the button to when something actually happens.

Also, my voicemail times and dates are overlapping in the voicemail menu. Looks kinda ugly! Heck, the whole voicemail menu is broken for me, and ends up crashing the phone app eventually since everything gets unresponsive after I use it.

I'm definitely looking forward to the iPhone 5S/iPhone 6. I know this is just a BETA, but the UI definitely seems sluggish compared to iOS 6.

(Oh, and the 3x3 grid for folders now is utterly ridiculous).

The Reminders menu flashes black after you entered in a reminder + time. Tapping on the reminder (to edit it) results in a strange black flash of the screen.

Aside from the quirks and a few missteps, I'm really enjoying iOS 7. It's certainly a bold step forward.

You haven't gotten there yet.

My phone respringed 3 times using the stock camera app (and HDR). Not only that, but it froze in the app many times not letting me see through the viewfinder (frozen image).

Left the house with 75% battery. Came home 2-3 hours later with a dead phone.

It does seem to take HDR photos faster though. Or it processes them in teh background allowing you to take another photo.

The battery issue might be something else? I've never had an issue with battery life, and so far everything is still fine.

I did notice the eBay app refuses to work... keeps closing on me. Still, I'm having a fine time so far. I better tinker with the camera more seeing what issues it appears you can have.
 
Noticed a few more bugs today:

Turning LTE to off doesn't actually turn LTE off. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1370997525.458761.jpg

Lots of texts come through over two hours late, reverting to iOS 6 fixes this so it is an OS issue.

Oh, and for some reason I constantly have location services doing something, draining the battery and warming up the phone.
 
Randomly after syncs about 4 pages worth of apps come out of their meticulously organized folders and flood my main screen. It's happened to twice today.

Oh well 🙁

I've reinstalled iOS 7 on my iP4 3 times, and now it is much smoother than the first try.

I'm suspicious my first (and only) install may have went bad. When I boot, I first see the new solid Apple icon. Then spinning cog, then dim cog, then blank screen - then I'm in. I crash often, and when the crashes happen I see the old iOS 6 icon (cracked).

I go through crashes and many visual glitches. Using Maps, it always misaligned the top status - and when other apps are up front, the Navigation top bar usually interferes with screen writes.

So finally, Bawstun - exactly how did you reinstall iOS 7? Did you restore from backup afterwards - or run it clean and start over? I'd like to find the sweet spot of running this...

thanks
 
My problems aren't a deal-breaker for me. But I'd certainly like it smoother and more stable!

It's my daily mobile for sure, I'm loving iOS 7 to be honest..! =)
 
I've read through a few pages of this thread, and didn't see this mentioned.

When you're typing a text message, then highlight a word and press define to look it up in the dictionary, there is no way to go back to composing your message. You are stuck in the dictionary. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
 
looks like instagram just updated their app, now its says waiting. update button does nothing im on 3g though with cellular downloads enabled. you can open it via the app store though
 
Ok in regards to the LTE toggle issue I mentioned, it goes way beyond simply not turning off LTE, it completely screws up your network connection and stays that way until you turn LTE back on, and for a few minutes your network will say No Service before finally reconnecting.

Many icons don't appear in the status bar; like the now playing icon or DND, for example.

DnD does, but it's weird because it will show when it's scheduled to be on, but not when I manually turn it on out of schedule. I could only get the moon to appear when I manually turned it on in an app (or anywhere but the home screen).
 
One more bug: if you have zero pictures, you'll be unable to set your wallpaper to the stock Apple ones in Settings.
 
Whenever I try to sync it with my Mac, it starts syncing automatically. It then copies apps across and stuff, but on Step 6 of 6, gets stuck and keeps saying Waiting for Changes to be Applied. Even if I unplug the device, quit iTunes or, cancel sync within iTunes, the Sync logo on the iPhone continues and I cannot get it to copy my songs over. It copied a few in the first sync, but I had to cancel it. Frustrated without my music now. Might try and do a restore overnight.
 
Anyone else have airdrop glitch everytime i hit sleep button it pops up saying new airdrop photo its so annoying!
