iOS 8.2 Beta 1 Fixes/Changes/Bugs

Notifications on shared calendars

Could someone check if notifications on shared calendars work again. They've been broken since 8.1, which Is very annoying since my wife and I relay heavily on them.

The person who created the calendar still gets notifications on updates, but all the other members don't. Worked perfectly before 8.1

Thanks!

I am getting really high safari usage. Like #1 on the battery usage stats with 25% when I haven't been using it that much. Anyone else? Any ideas?

The pasting of something copied long ago is a HORRIBLE bug and led to a very embarrassing text incident. That left me bitter and is probably the moment I decided it was time to get off the apple train.

Well I wouldn't take it that far. I recently tried lollipop, and I'm very glad I'm still riding the apple train.

Oh and I think the copy/paste bug was fixed in 8.1.1. It hasn't happened for me in a while. We are moving to more stability now that updates are rolling out. Safari crashes still happen though.

Another horrible 'feature' is screenshots in multitasking. For example, I get a safari screenshot of something that I was on a few days ago, even if it wasn't the last page I opened in safari. It makes it hard to be discreet watching porn or anything privacy sensitive. Closing the tab, force quitting safari, clearing history won't stop an old screenshot from appearing in multitasking.


Guess i won't be letting any kids or my girlfriend touch my iOS devices for a while.

Seems to me an easy fix would be picking another browser for use some of the time.

Yeah this has been going on since iOS 7. So strange that they can't get it to update quicker.

I noticed some apps don't use screenshots in multitasking like banking apps, what browsers do this?

Just get mercury browser, turn privacy mode on, and swipe close it in multitasking when you're not using it. It's a much better browser than safari in all use cases anyway.

It's still an issue, I highly doubt it'll change in the official release.
