iOS 10.2 Beta 3 - Changes, Bugs, and Fixes

[gk712]

Anyone know if the bug with notifications disappearing after unlock is fixed?

seems to be still there for email notifications for me, anyone else?

Typically, when the letter drops off at the end of the build number, it is ready for public release. Apple very, very rarely breaks this habit. Its been broken 5 times in the last 10 years.

Hmm. Ok, thanks

Not to post about my "token" bug like people do, but:

In past threads, there has been talk about Bluetooth quality degradation since 10.1.1. Yes, I know that Bluetooth fixes were in the release notes for 10.1.1. However, some of us using the iPhone to stream Bluetooth audio in cars of various makes have found increased amounts of distortion and intermittent playback sometimes connected to using the phone, and which was not present in the pre-10.1.1 versions.

This includes both the -100 and -150 builds of 10.1.1.

For those who had that happen, any change in 10.2?

Have not tried in this Beta. It was still there in Beta2. Had been reported

Thanks! IP7 gives me half of speed rather than iPad Pro 9.7 on same wifi network...

Weird.. I am getting much better Wifi speeds on 10.2b3 as compared to 10.2b2

I must be blind... how does one find the "send with love" new feature in iMessage???

Type any message in Messenger (you have to type something), hold down the blue arrow up button to the right, select "Screen" at the top, swipe the screen left until you get to the big red heart (two swipes).

Yes, on my iPad Air this doesn't happen either and on my old iPhone 6s the download speed test will be always around 95mbps.
As I said I don't know if this is iPhone 7 related, firmware or iOS 10.2 betas.

Emojis don't save after choosing a skin color on iPad. The bug only works on the male weightlifter and male basketball player. IF ONLY MACRUMORS SUPPORTED APPLE EMOJIS ON THIS FORUM

Just installed b3. Videos app still present. iP7 USA

 

[nutmac]

I can't watch offline videos from TV app at all. I rip TV shows from TiVo. Clicking on the show or "See All" button does nothing.

Movies work fine though.

Apparently they left it in for those in India. So that doesn't really make sense.

Most likely due to the rampant rapes that occur there it was decided the feature should be left in for the women to use in case of emergency.

India's government requires all phones to have a panic button in order to improve security of women.

Anyone else having problems with downloading the new Apple TV beta? I click to download it and the download bar pops up but nothing happens... it just sits there. It does this on both of my Apple TV 4's

And yes I know this isn't the Apple TV forum, but not many people check that forum and I'm sure lots of people here also get the Apple TV betas.

Based on the discussion in the tvOS beta thread at https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-seeds-third-beta-of-tvos-10-1-to-developers.2014861/ it seems like at least some people are experiencing those kinds of issues.

Note this does not apply when we get close, they remove the middle number when close to release.
[doublepost=1479155925][/doublepost]

No the bigger sign is the extra number in the middle, it is the indicator that the fork or whatever they do is different. The extra letter has nothing to do if its in beta or not. I'm talking about the reason something is there not whether its there more or not. Correlation doesn't imply causation.

There has never been a general release that has the extras number still there in the middle that was there in the betas. The letter doesnt seem to matter, it's there for a different reason. (minor respins etc)

I believe you are incorrect. Also he is referring to the small letter on the end. like 14B150c the "c" will disappear typically (not the B) so it may be 14B151 as a final. Seems the iP7 has changed that in that it kept the last small letter on the final release of one of the 10 series (10.1 or 10.1.1) Bu the other iPx devices did not.

This beta feels really smooth on iPhone 7. Just feels polished and easily the best version of iOS 10

 

[pudge104]

What's even more funny about this is that the movie I added to my iPhone after I installed the Videos app ended up with an image of an album cover from my music library that isn't even remotely related to the movie.

Same here, some random album art and my Videos app disappeared. I hope they fix this.

 

[Shirasaki]

The TV app has replaced videos. Whatever folder your video app was in is now the TV app

United States only.

Well then the revised 10.1.1 removed the letter at the end.

Running Beta 3, with the Videos app gone how do I download videos I ripped to my iPhone and then watch them using the TV App?

When I attempt to sync the videos I ripped using iTunes I get an error indicating the Videos app is not installed on my iPhone.

I'm confused!

 

[XianPalin]

Still not seeing the TV app on beta 3, iPhone 7 Plus. Still have videos app. TV settings are there, but no TV app.

 

[rstark18]

Anyone getting double push notifications from Tapatalk? It's been happening since 10.2b2 for me.

 

[rstark18]

United States only.

Not for me. I still have both.

Holy ****. Can't tell if placebo or my iPhone 6 Plus is flying now. Frame rates are soaring. Pulling down the menu from the home screen feels as if I turned on "no transparency". Twitter scrolling and scrolling in general doesn't skip frames that often. Idk lol might be placebo. But my 6+ feels fresh.

 

[Mlrollin91]

Everyone will get different experiences after installing a software update. Some devices could index for 12 hours, others for 30 minutes. It depends on how full your storage is and so on. It is truly not appropriate to accuse someone of being 'high' because you have a different experience than them. There are more people here saying their device is faster than those saying it is slower. So that would make you the exception and not the rule. Point being, don't be rude.

Did you tried beta 2?

 

[sbailey4]

You must be high or something cuz it slowed down my iPhone 7 and iPad Pro. A couple bugs have returned, like a weird animation entering the app switcher. Scrolling is slow and so is multitasking. It is not polished, in fact it is probably the worse beta version out of all the 10.2 betas.

iPhone 6s here and seems really fast and smooth. Also Geekbench test also shows higher results than b2. No issues with app switcher on iPhone 6s.
