iOS 9.0 Beta 1 Bug Fixes and Changes

[Paradoxally]

Keeping the phone in low power mode does seem to rapidly slow the battery drain, though I already have the features it claims to turn off, off anyway, so I wonder what else it does behind the scenes

According to Apple, limits CPU and GPU usage and reduces networking. Photos will not upload, for example.

On my iPhone 6, I now seem to have room for an extra row of icons on my homescreens. Pretty sure it was 5 rows before; now it's 6!

Also, the passcode is now 6 digits instead of 4.

iOS 9 didn't change the resolution at all -- you had room for 6 rows all the time. 😀

It's always been 6 rows on the iPhone 6. You probably had zoom on or never noticed it was 6 before.

It's pretty obvious the icon size hasn't changed. Its always been six rows with the iPhone 6.

Guess I had zoom on. Don't remember setting that, but I know where to adjust it now. Thanks!

Something called "CCCWidget" has just appeared on my homescreen, I can't seem to download or install it, it's just greyed out.

I have no idea what it is. I've searched the app center for it and I can't find it.. and yet, there it is, sitting on my homescreen

Can anyone confirm whether setting read receipts based on individual contact made it into iOS 9, as was rumored? Thanks!

Was that even a rumor, or just someone's wishful thinking in some post somewhere?

Weird...any chance it's a leftover relic from a previous jailbreak tweak that you installed outside the App Store? Probably won't help but you could check your settings, general, profiles to see if you have anything from a publisher there.

found why, its the background app refresh settings, theyre all broken & ignore what u set. turn on background refresh then manually turn off every app, go back to the previous menu then go back to background refresh, a bunch of apps u just turned off will turn themselves back on. same thing when background refresh is turned off globally, when turned on (so u can see each app's setting) a bunch of apps are on again. the toggle to turn off background refresh globally is being ignored even if it appears off, my battery usage reported almost every app having background usage.

also explains why my device is very warm, cause everythings running on it in the background, guess ill revert & wait for beta 2

Can confirm, same happening on mine. Very nice find sir! Only a few of mine turned off and they were the stock apps. This isn't annoying in the slightest... /s

It seems to be this app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/widgets-calculator-currency/id919143225?ls=1&mt=8

I'm not sure how you would remove it.

Search in Mail gives much more organized results...

Can you install it from App Store so you can then delete it?

Anyone else experiencing music playlist duplicating every time you sync?

Weird, when I press down to delete it theres no "x", to delete it, nothing in settings about the app either. It wasn't there this morning but randomly appeared this evening.

I can live with it, just thought it was a bit strange, must be a pretty unique bug haha!

Anyone else find that randomly, every single iMessage sent suddenly gets marked as "Did not send" despite having already had replies to them? I have four conversations going and every single iMessage I sent seems to have been marked with it

Request: what does the app switcher look like in landscape mode on both iPhone 6 and 6+?

Whenever you're listening to any kind of music app Instead of showing the time when you click on home button it shows this. iPhone 4S

Dev forums say disabling LTE / mobile data helps / fixes the battery drain. Can't try this because I'm on 8.3 for now

Exactly the same but in landscape view.

Several places have said that resetting all settings helps a lot.

Is anyone's music app crashing on their iPhone 5S? It won't open at all

I've tried everything to no avail. I think the biggest issue is that Background Refresh is on for all apps and cannot be turned off so it's constantly running.
