iOS 9.0 beta 2 Bug Fixes and Changes

[macintoshmac]

I've had this same problem with beta 1and now beta 2 ( Its ridiculous)
I had to purchase more storage just so i could back up my iPhone

As Tim would say, "Only Apple could have done this. In fact, Apple is the only company in the entire world that could have made people buy more storage just to update and backup their iPhones."

(dramatic pause during which the shareholders give a round of applause)

i do have a few Chinese friends, and their name shows in Siri suggestions. I can only see first name, but not full name.
In general, showing full name of a Chinese contact is better than showing just first name.

you can change this in settings -> mail, contacts, calendars -> short name

I have changed back to my preference.
Thanks for your suggestion.

Same here. The stuff I have in iCloud adds up to about 7GB, yet somehow it's telling me my 20GB allowance is nearly full. I can't even see what's taking up all the space to delete it! Hopefully this will get fixed down the road.

Can anyone tell if Telegram is still crashing if you're trying to write more than one line of text?

I would really want to know as well!

Apple Dev forums also have a thread about the iCloud backup issue, so hopefully Apple works on fixing this eventually.

did you update or restore it to iOS 9 Beta 2?

I updated both my iPad Air and iPhone 6 to Beta 2 OTA from Beta 1. Both appear to function properly when it comes to facetime.

Has anyone tried FaceTime call on 6 plus?

The batteries widget is now on iPad and does work if you have a bluetooth device connected. In my case its bluetooth headphones.

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.

After updating to beta 2 my touch id is not working at all, it doesnt recognize neither of my fingers and also it wont add/read new fingers. I had problems with touch id on 8.3 in 9b1 was working flawlessly now its even worst than 8.3. Anybody with problems with touch id ?

From your signature, iPhone 6, right?

Safari Ad Blocking is gone.

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.

Good battery life for my 6 plus, 100% 1h 24 min stand by, 40 min of usage (tweetbot, Safari, looking new stuff from b2, snapchat, Instagram, flipboard, clash of clans, mail and Skype), at 45 mins of usage it has decreased to 99%.

Safari Ad Blocking is gone.

I am unsure if that ever worked. Did it?

I do. No idea what it is. Although, if you turn them off, it will remain off. So does the rest of the sliders.

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.

It was in Beta 1 but good added feature.
