iphone 6 plus running 8.3 gets super laggy after a half days use resulting in massive framedrops and delays

That happened on my 5S a few days after installing, but after a restart I haven't had that issue anymore.
 
Certain artist in music app names are removed for another.... (Ex. all my Nas albums has his name moved into the album slot & DMX in the artist place)
 
I have the settings option for Password Settings and I have Touch ID for purchases turned on.

That's strange...

First picture is with Touch ID enabled, second is with Touch ID disabled:

How is battery life compared iOS 8.2 b5?

Seems to be slightly better for me with my 6 plus, although it's more of a comparison between 8.2 B4 since I was only on B5 for a day before 8.3 B1 came out. With 8.2 B4 I would typically get 9-10 hours of usage. With 8.3 B1 it's more like 10-11 hours.
 
Anyone using an iPad able to CREATE a location based reminder? I can no longer create one on my iPad Air 2 when previously I could. Also reminders does not show up under settings, privacy, location services anymore and there's nothing I can do to get it to ask me to allow it access?!?!

Already did a full restore as new.

Had this "issue". Go to settings>privacy>location services>system services and turn on location based alerts.
 
Just a question, but why is there an 8.3 beta when 8.2 hasn't been released yet? It's kinda saying that 8.2 is rubbish, no?

They focus on different underlying features. And in order to be able to release them within a few months of each other (rather than lets say half a year or something) some development and testing ends up overlapping.

I see. Cheers.

I've checked and everything is on. Any other suggestions?

Here's an overall summary:
Wifi only iPad air 2 and unable to CREATE location based reminders. Now I've owned every regular wifi only iPad's and in the past I've been able to create location based reminders so this is a change either within iOS 8 or something weird is going on with my device.

I've restored as new twice and still nothing. The issue shouldn't be related to iPad being wifi only because u can create them via the web and via an iMac or even iPod.

WIthin settings, privacy, location services I don't have reminders listed and when I go to the reminders app I dont have any option that would prompt me to allow or deny location access which seems to be the issue. For example location services doesn't show calendar either until you go into the calendar and tap on add event and tap within the location field.

Also within settings, privacy, location services, system services EVERYTHING is enabled.

In my mind the issue is that I need to be able to tap on something within reminders to prompt me for location access however I'm not seeing anything. I also have an iPhone 6 plus and have no issues creating reminders and I've also reset location settings in the reset menu. The two restores I did this week consisted of a restore with the device and a restore with iTunes.

I Can also create location based reminders on my iPad using the Workflow automation app which creates the reminder with location alert within reminders however when I go to the reminders app it doesn't show a location but when I check on my iPhone 6 plus the location shows up.

Baffled, this has been in effect from iOS 8 up to 8.3 beta.

HOLY CRAP, I thought I was the only one!! This is so annoying! It happens nonstop on my mini 2, if I restart the iPad it helps but then within a couple hours it comes back and I don't know why. Is this exclusive to iPad mini's? It seems like a rather uncommon bug because I didn't know of anyone else who had this issue until now.

I can confirm that this bug has been fixed in iOS 8.3 beta 2!

Thank goodness, that's really good to hear. I have been getting sick of how my mini 2 sometimes takes so long to rotate on the lockscreen that the screen times out by the time it finally finishes. Getting more and more excited for 8.3 everyday!
 
I do hope that iOS 8.3 Bug will fix;

Status Bar Animation Problem When going from Locked Screen in to Main Menu. Eventhough it occurs on occasion, it is very annoying....

Also hope it will clear out these logs from Diagnostics & Usage. Which are;

1-StorageStatus Logs
2-CoreTime
3-Stacks

These were not there in iOS7.
