The New iOS 11.4 Update Fixes Three Irritating Bugs

[TiggrToo]

Go to the Genius Bar they will replace the entire phone at no cost even if out of warranty. I had friends do it.

That's not the point. I'd rather not go though this if I don't have to. I have AppleCare+ so I'm not at all worried about that, just not waiting to go through all that messing around...

Didn't fix the double delete annoyance, swipe > press delete > then press delete > again !!!

Cook and co are ruining Apple by the day

Press delete again where?

Where do I enable this keyboard without the annoying period key next to the space bar...I hate that thing and hit it accidentally all the time...

(apparently this only shows up when using the search bar in Safari...still annoying)

It shows up there (and has for a long time) because '.' is something that is very commonly used when entering URLs, given that the bar is basically an address/search bar.

i‘m on 11.4. the contollcenter allows only single selection to my airplay devices, no changes to earlier iOS versions. how can i change this to multi selection?

Yes, they are gone on my iPhone 7.

That’s stupid of apple, probably to try get everyone to update once iOS 12 is out.

Do not update your iPad to iOS10.4, I did so and 24 hours later mine was bricked. I just had an online chat with two of the worst Apple reps and they could only offer a $273 service to diagnose the problem.

Not quite sure how 10.4 figures into it, but have you tried restoring?

11.4 does NOT fix the CarPlay issues as described. Tried it today and the issue persists. Has been noted elsewhere. Complete fail Apple!!!

Excuse me, iOS11.4. I tried for over two hours rebooting, trying to connect to iTunes via USB cable then when it connected I couldn’t restore from iCloud so I had no choice but to restore as new. The display is all screwed up, it looks all washed out. I’d reboot it and there was a white perimeter around the screen then a couple times it was black around the edge and white in the center. Never an issue until this evening and it’s suddenly gone crazy. I've attached the results of installing iOS11.4 on my iPad air below.

I thought one of the recent updates said it fixed the out of order issue? Though my wife says it wasn’t fixed so she’ll be glad to hear this but probably won’t believe it this time. Get your crap together, Apple.

Bummer that the calculator launching delay is still present:
1. Close calculator if open
2. Lock iPhone
3. Reach Control Center
4. Launch calculator (it must be added previously, not sure if come enabled by default)
5. Waaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiitttt

Followed your steps, mine opens immediately - iPhoneX

Try re-installing with REIboot app (unfortunately $69). My wife's iPhone 7 was bricked and stuck in recovery mode a couple of weeks ago, and REIboot was able to install iOS without losing any of her data. I would have had to update iTunes from 12.6.4 to 12.7.x if I'd let the iMac restore the phone, because 12.6.4 can't install iOS 11.3.1, so...

Yet, suddenly Messages started to work...at least some messages came up on my iMac of some strange reason.
And messages sent/received today shows up flawless.
Haven’t worked ~recent year on my Mac. Haven’t cared much though. That have been the least of my problems with iCloud and/or sync across devices.

But if I get this right, iCloud now have something to do with it, even if Mac’s messages aren’t supported yet. Story will continue, see how ’other’ iCloud issues will be addressed.

That was very temporary, it have stopped working again. Why should I be surprised

So it probably means I have to wait until I want to upgrade to High Sierra or later...

- Fixes an issue where CarPlay audio could become distorted

Thank goodness! I have a 30min commute and spend 95% of the time using carplay. I would have audiobooks, music, and phone calls getting distorted. Hopefully it is really fixed!

Well it turns out this is false. The distorted audio issue returned today with 11.4 running on my 8s Plus while using iTunes. Had to unplug and reconnect the phone. Whatever Apple did didn't fix it.

What about all the text selection bugs in Safari text edit fields (that have spread to Mail)? Have those been fixed yet? Have any of the broken-by-design multi-select interfaces been corrected (as seen in Reminders and Safari settings website data)? Has the Safari website data clearing bug been fixed?
