i am having that same issue with my power beats 3. When I get a call and i am listening to them I have to change my audio to speaker and then back to the power beats and i can hear them. I am on Verizon so not just an ATT issue.
Got a tip for us?

I think the new text in Calendar mimics the text in News+.
I’ll have to try it later.
What I did not like was that the phone battery/signal would move from the top left to the bottom left when you were on a call. Also, if you missed an iMessage, and iMessage wasn’t the last app you used, you wouldn’t know. They should have it pop up there.

There, Apple. I'll see you next beta.

That's right. You actually don't need the top row of letters either, I say they should just incorporate another key to switch to another letters keyboard for that top row, thus you would save all that room, maybe even consider having 3 keyboards, one for each row of letters, that would work wonderfully when holding my iPhone in one hand and trying to reach all the way across to hit those swap keys.
I'm assuming that's why you wouldn't care for a numbers row. I mean it's not like they have a huge empty space at the bottom where the keyboard selector/microphone icons are or anything, we can definitely use all the space we can get.
Hmmm.
I really wish Apple would overhaul the Photos Album.
to me an Album of Pictures, in the classic sense is a separate collection of photos - not an alias of place holders of pics all in the root album. Growing up pictures of the family where in 1 album, pictures of my sister in another mine in another and early pics of each my parents in their own. All pictures of us together in one BIG album. Sure some pics where shared or duplicated in others but in of themselves separate.
the problem with Apples Albums is I place a pic there, butwhen I delete in the main gallery it’s deleted from the album grrrr
Yup on T-Mobile and had same issue. Have to switch audio to other input and back to AirPods Pro to connect. Will test soon it’s been annoying.
Personally, I like the current way.
They could happily coexist though for those with preferences. Rename the current albums “Collections”, you move to an album or you add to a collection.
Albums (created ones) can be shared with other people
Dude...me too. Happened today for the first time. Almost didn’t get my bag of weed. 😝
Yup. Same issue.
Beta 1 was so solid, I should've just kept it. This last beta is a mess. I'm looking forward to moving to Beta 5 when it goes public.
sharing isn’t my issue. Collections is the same as albums. Photos placed on either are in fact an Alias (a shortcut for you Windows users) to the real pic in the main “Recents” (main photo gallery). I don’t want the duplicate. I want to MOVE pics into Alabama so that their no longer in the main gallery. Classes up clutter therein.

mid Apple doesn’t want to give me that, then I’m stuck and will use a Files plugin to upload to my cloud of choice so I can mass purge the main gallery
Totally agree with you. The downvotes on this community are due to the Fanboy mindset that Apple can't do no wrong.
From a technical and functionality perspective the new Widgets are a huge downgrade from the previous framework.
I don't think people understand the limitations because their mind goes "Ohh look pretty, it's on ma home screen" and their brain stops there.
Look at the Up Next widget in iOS 13.
I shows me in a compact UI no larger than 2 cm's, my next alarm, my next reminder and my next calendar appointment.
On iOS 14, the Up next widget shows me nothing but my calendar appointment. I now need to use 3 different widgets which takes up 3 widgets screen realestate instead of 1.
The other thing people don't seem to understand is that you can no longer interactive with a widget.
So for example, I can't mark reminders as complete. Instead it loads up the app in order for me to mark an item.
A developer can't make a calculator widget like PCalc's using this new widget framework as they just display data.
The facts are in and it sucks. I hope they improve these over the next couple of years.
I mean, Apple seem rushed for time, they couldn't even bring the home screen layout to iPad.
I didn’t like the music icon change but now I actually do - the change of less cool Color effects in the player now is a letdown tho.
And spotlight search still doesn’t work at this point I guess I’m just out of luck
I wasn’t aware widgets could be interacted with - are you talking about earlier betas or the iOS 13 widgets?

Reading all the comments here, I've been having quite a number of issues that I wasn't really paying too much attention to... these call issues, the camera issue, disappearing keyboard, and some others I'm too tired to remember at the moment. This last beta was definitely a step backward.
Anyone know if they have fixed the problem in Calendar where you can't use 24 hour time when creating an appointment even though everything on system is set to 24 hour time. Once it is created it shows as 24 hour time but only has am/pm option for creation. This is specific to iOS, not a problem with iPadOS, or with Big Sur.
I can't believe #2 isn't a feature yet after all these years. Makes the hidden album kind of useless.
You can't. They was saying that they wish that existed.
Mind. Blown.
Thanks for the the tip!
While I'm also disappointed about the lesser functionality of the new widgets, I've had the chance to think about it a bit.
Apple's success with non-tech users has been a consistent UI throughout the system, and the constraints of the sizes and placement of widgets is part of that thinking. This is also important from an accessibility standpoint, which is another reason that user's with disabilities find the iPhone a reliable option for them.
I see the new widgets as typical of Apple's measured approach to adding new features, ensuring they work reliably on all devices before adding a ton of functionality. With the current approach, there is the potential for 50+ widgets of many different apps in stacks to be on one home screen, with the potential they all want to be refreshed at regular intervals. Some constraints are necessary to ensure this won't be a hit on performance and battery life.
The widgets on previous versions only needed refreshing when the Today view was accessed, not every time you close an app, which changes the effect on performance dramatically.
I personally believe (as others do) that more interactivity will come in time, as Apple works out the quirks and impacts of the current approach.
Jealousy is an ugly trait...
And back on topic, here’s my CarPlay screen.
The new layout wouldn’t work well on a widescreen format.
Hopefully the new public beta will go live today so I’ll find out anxiously if they’ve changed it or if it’s just for square or landscape displays.

I don't see that happening, since what you're suggesting is considered to be an "old fashioned" way of thinking of photo organisation, and I myself have come around to the digital way of thinking of it.
The "All photos" view is not an album, it's a compilation of all your photos, it's not meant to be manually organised, but can be searched and filtered by time, location and even person.
While you can set up albums, they are simply manual compilations of your photos, kinda like a playlist of music. You don't generally put every song in your music library in playlists, and it's the same for photos.
Most photos now have location and time/date information, and mix that with being able to manually name faces means you can always find photos of events, places and people without having to manually create albums anymore. Once you identify people once, the photos app can find other photos of that person using AI. You can search for dogs or cats just by typing those words.
In iOS 14 you can also add captions to photos which you could search, so you could label an event (like "Jims wedding") and you could do a search which would show you all those photos.
I have to admit it took me time to adjust to this different way of thinking, but I like the fact that I don't need to spend a lot of time organising my photos when I don't really need to.
