iOS 7 Beta 1: Bugs and Problems

4s

Recent call list goes off top and bottom (unreadable to tap)

Sometimes on sync phone goes blank showing background requiring reboot to unlock etc

Text screen does not scroll up when new message received

App Store crash/ slow

Safari lags to touch on bookmarks and tabs
 
First bug:

- Changed my phone background from space to pink camo and then back to space. The transparent folders stayed pink though. Had to reboot the phone to make them render blue based on the background again.
 
Today (Notification Bug)

Seems like today panel on the notification center is showing the calendar widget shows events from your calendar a day behind.

Seems like a simple bug, but very weird.

Downcast – downloaded a podcast & played without problems

Gmail – installed and ran without problems

Runkeeper – I don't use this app, but I did start an activity and then stop it, and my location came up on the app's GPS. So I'm assuming it works.

Exchange – I don't have any email address with an Exchange account, so I couldn't test this. However, in the Mail settings, there's still the option to setup an account using an Exchange server, so at the very least, it's not going away.

I have an Exchange account and it seems to be working fine so far
 
Game Center: When setting up your photo if you choose to take the pic from camera, Game Center crashes. Works fine with a picture from photo album.

Camera: Switching between video, photo, panorama, etc... can cause camera to freeze up and sometimes respring.
 
Probably mentioned already but Podcast app just gives blank screen.

MLB at bat was a problem but works today.

Others have reported a problem with Nike+, but mine is fine on i5 A1428. I didn't have to login though since I restored from iCloud backup.

Otherwise just the normal beta feel.

I've tried to receive a picture from another iPhone 5 by Airdrop. Some problem occured and the airdrop message is been shown forever in the lock screen ("[someone] is sharing a photo with you"). I've tried to find something to remove the notification, but I haven't found anything yet. So I think this is a bug! The notification list is empty, only the Airdrop message appears in lock
screen every time I try to unlock my iPhone.
(sorry for my English)

Please if anyone found any solution to this problem .Please tell me !!!!
 
This occurs on iPhone 4

If you don't have any photos in your camera roll or in any other albums, and then try to change the wallpaper in Brightness & Wallpaper in the settings.app, it'll just show that you don't have any photos to choose from. Not even the one still provided by Apple.

Funnily enough, the instance I'd taken that screenshot, because I then had one photo in my camera roll, it showed the normal selection view including the ever existent still by Apple.

Edit:
Another bug I have with the notification centre is that it doesn't show any scheduled reminders for the next day in the Today view, even though I have several set.

not sure if this has been mentioned but if music app is closed ear phone controls do not work when you play music from double clicking home button on lock screen and hitting play.
 
I was just wondering, I'm not a dev, but have the iOS 7 beta on my iPhone 5. I have been reporting bugs etc, but my question is this.

Under settings>about>diagnostics and usage I have this turned on. Despite not being a dev, will this information still help Apple iron out issues in the software?
 
Not sure if this has been said, and don't want to go through 31 pages looking for it, but when you long press and define a word there is no "done" button to get out of the definition screen -- you have to close and quit the app to get out of it.
 
Not sure if this has been discussed before and I'm not sure if this is a bug, but I am often in group messages and now at the top where it used to list all the numbers, it just says group. Now I have no way of knowing who I am talking to.

Edit. Nvm didnt realize when you hit contacts it lists the people. Thought contacts would just take me to my contacts list. That kind of stupid.

Anyone else feel that the new back gesture (pulling with one finger to the right) is unresponsive at times?

Are you starting at the left edge of the screen? It works best for me if I start from the edge, or even from the left bezel (off the screen).
 
Not sure if it has been mentioned in the 31 pages of this thread (alread? damn!), but I ran into some issues this morning when I was trying to use my iPhone 4S with my Jambox speaker.

At first, it wouldn't play any sound over the speaker or the phone. Took a few attempts to get it to work correctly. Then, after I was done, I noticed that the phone wouldn't play a sound when I plugged it in. I noticed that the phone was trying to Airplay sound to itself, or to another iPhone that doesn't exist. It took a hard reboot to fix the issue. Anyone else have issues with bluetooth speakers?

When I was initially trying to install iOS 7, the phone crashed and froze twice during the first initial sync. I am also noticing some significant heat coming from the back during short normal use with the screen on medium brightness.


Note: I have a legit Dev account, and I know this is a beta, the first beta at that. I know it's going to have problems, I'm just pointing some out.
 
iPhone 5

  • Upon iCloud restore, email, Facebook, etc password notifications spam, even when I'm entering the password for the one it's complaining about.
  • Phone call came in over bluetooth and I was going to let it go to voice mail, but it went ahead and answered itself.
  • Bluetooth car stereo can no longer read phone's name.
  • At one point Photo was opening a different photo than the one I chose.
  • WiFi often unable to connect. Sometimes until I tell it to 'Forget Network', sometimes until I choose it from the WiFi list.
    - My school's WiFi's login page will spam the login page until I do 'Forget Network'.
  • Podcasts not listed in Music, and Podcast app very unstable. Mostly anything will crash it - opening it, playing a file.
    - Siri is unable to switch to a song when I podcast is playing. Just says 'okay, now play Whatever', then continues to play the podcast.
  • iTunes not detecting phone for WiFi sync.
  • iTunes Match 'Skip when shuffling' tag ignored.

Then when I do finally get to sync, it gets stuck on step 5 of 5: Waiting for changes to be applied. Anyone else getting this?
 
- Frequent Music playback problems (won't play some music at all).
- None of the headphone (Apple's original) controls works under iOS 7.
- Quite frequent Crashes, especially when updating apps / switching from or to the App Store app.
- Menu, etc., text overrides another in various apps.
- WhatsApp text input window will disappear when switching between contacts.
- The Control Centre (and less often, the Notification Centre) half the time don't work at all.
- Occasional Crashes when moving an app from one folder to another.
- The selected text is read out in US English, ignoring the setting to read it out in proper English.
- The SpotLight is ca. 5 times slower than it were under iOS 6.

There are more bugs, but I can't recall them right now.
