iOS 9.0 beta 2 Bug Fixes and Changes

[Hustler1337]

New Thing, i think :

If you select Photos in your Library or in your iCloud Library & Stream you can just drag you Finger over them and it will select them all where you swiped over it. I think this is new and it is really convenient. Before you had to tap them one by one i think.

That's been there since Beta 1 and was mentioned in the WWDC keynote. A useful feature borrowed from the Google Photos app (I think).

yes im on iphone6

Restarting, reinstalling, reset settings... any of the usual bazookas help fire touch ID?

 

[The Doctor11]

I had the prompt come up, but I decided to manually delete my apps instead, so I highly doubt its that. :| If I scroll down further, I can see the rest of my apps in the list. Its just these blank entries occupying the middle.

Yeah I'm seeing the exact same thing. Maybe it will go away soon or just be a beta 3 fix. We'll see.

Is anybody seeing the long delay when tapping on "Back to <app>"? It is happening on both iPhone 5S and iPad Air2, it is much faster to swipe to the previous app than it is to tap on the Back to <app>.

I'm not seeing this at all. When I tap it it goes right back on iPad Air 2.

 

[NotAdvisable]

iPhone 6+ still cannot make phone calls.
Silence still heard on both ends of the call.

Is it me or have Apple tweaked the background effect slightly when you view an album in the Music app compared to beta 1?

Here's how it looks on beta 2:



NEW:

Also, the Radio tab is now showing for me (I live in the UK), although it just shows a blank screen for that tab:

New Touch Accommodations ( But THIS should be new! I did not see this in b1 )

 

[mizxco]

Anyone else getting some blank entries under Settings > General > Search?

Yes I am. Did you do the insufficient space delete thing? I did and I'm thinking those are probably the apps that aren't reinstalled yet.

I figured they might be home screen web-apps?

That's a good guess, unfortunately I don't have any web apps but 16 blank spaces.

So something that was working just fine in beta 1 gets screwed in beta 2. I do not want to, but can't help think of planned obsolescence for the 5s.. I am on 5s, just installed, and working fine two times I used it.

Another note, this share sheet looks ugly to me. Earlier the separation for Cancel and the other stuff was very good.

On a really off topic and note, James Horner died in a private plane crash.

No.

1. He said iPad Air 2 and iPhone 5s.
2. You have an iPhone 5s. You just said it works fine.

If you don't want to think of planned obsolescence, don't. Not a thing.

OMG the battery life between beta 1 and 2 is like night and day. And my phone is no longer so hot it feels like it will melt!

 

[FatPuppy]

I installed it on 5s too, clean install, no backup and it works just as bad as beta 1.

Anyone else's contacts not appearing in search (even when switched on in settings)?

 

[Applefanboy22]

Is that new Music icon is in this second beta ?

No

 

[batting1000]

Wish 3rd party apps worked with split view...gotta wait till September

FaceTime working on iPhone 6 Plus for me

 

[Btt_]

Am I the only one that can't recieve phone calls to 6+ with the iOS 9 betas?
I have to have a Bluetooth headset connected and then switch from BT to phone after I answer. If there is no BT connected, I answer the call but there is no sound. I can't hear the caller and the caller can't hear me.
I upgraded to the betas, didn't do a clean install.

Not sure if this will fix the issue, but have you tried to reset settings to see if that helps. It helped fix an issue I had with BT audio skipping.

Messed up icons on springboard (iPad Air)

 

[Applefanboy22]

I OTA installed beta 2 on my empty mini 2 and I am very disappointed, no performance improvements.

Are you joking??

I can see iTunes Radio tab in Japanese store. Would it be available for Japanese customers? I don't know.
