iOS 10.2 BETA 6 - Changes, Bugs, and Fixes

Stupid Video app keeps popping out of folders and being dragged to the last page.

So far 2 iPad backups have been successful with Beta 6 and 1 iPhone has failed with beta 5. Looking good so far.

Edit: Make that 3 successful for iPad.

That sounds really promising indeed. How many times did you backup your iPhone? Once? And it failed right away?

The animations with Reduce Motion turned off seem to have been slowed down again. They were really quick for a few betas but now it feels like it takes forever to go back to the home screen/get into the app switcher.

Only once and it failed right away. Over the last week its been about a 50% failure rate, but since last night it became more like 90%. It took me 12 attempts last night to backup my 7Plus. I caved and am installing Beta 6 on iPhone right now. The only thing that I am really OCD about when it comes to my iPhone is it backing up properly. I've lost health data too many times.

Before using ios 10.2 beta 5 , did you have that app switcher grey dock bug ? Because i have that bug since i bought my iphone 7 plus (since ios 10.0) and i tried all iphone 7 and 7 plus in apple store , they have that bug too.

I recall I have seen it on 10.1.1, but now on 10.2 beta 6 I cannot reproduce it.
Use an iPhone 7 Plus 256 GB (if that has anything to do with it?)

Stupid Video app keeps popping out of folders and being dragged to the last page.

I finally just deleted it for that very reason, especially since (so I heard) the TV app is supposed to replace Videos, and I don't have any non-camera roll videos anyway.

In other news, although the app switcher stutter is still present for some apps, the 3D Touch (from left edge) app switch function is faster and smoother than ever.

Mine hasn't done that these past couple of betas. Strange.

For whatever reason, iTunes doesn't like when I delete the video app, it makes me resync all my videos. Im guessing thats whats been fixed in the last two betas according to the release notes, but I am just leaving it for the time being tucked away.

Strange. Mine has done it for beta 4, 5 and now 6. I put it in an "other" folder and every single restart its dragged out.

Dunno if it's just me but in beta 6 my house button on 7 plus feels better like the hactic feedback is different

I feel like the charging vibration has changed a little too.

Thank you so much for your answer!

As far as what? Double clicking? other system haptics?

Edit: I feel it now. It's...smoother, I guess? It definitely feels better than it did.

First backup attempt with 7Plus failed . Dang it.

Second attempt worked.

All 4 iPad backups have been successful.

Second attempt worked.

I just did a backup of my 7 on my MBP and no problem (with beta 6) , but I didn't try with b5...

Can some one please tell me if these two bugs have been fixed:

1. In the 'Health' app, 'Medical ID', 'Edit' it's not possible to select 5'2" as your height (still displays 5'1 in the Height field)
2. When you try to send a video or audio file recorded in Quicktime on a Mac they will not play on iPhone in Messages or Mail

1. Fixed - it shows 5'2" now.

2. Also fixed. Just tested with an audio recording from Quicktime on my Macbook.

Didn't read the whole thread so sorry if this was asked/answered, "Did Apple restore delete all functionality in Mail?"

Nope

you mean like in 'Trash'?
When I'm in Mail, go to the Trash and select Edit, I see in the right-corner at the bottom 'delete all'
But then in Dutch, because I live in the Netherlands, so yeah, the 'Delete all' functionality is there.

Sweet. I upgraded my iPad Air 2 so I will test it there as well. I won't upgrade my iPhone 7Plus until I'm confident the issue is fixed because my battery life is amazing.

10.2 Beta 5 gave me phenomenal battery life on my 7Plus. I posted screenshots in the beta 5 thread. I was getting 2+ hours more of SOT than 10.1.1 per charge.
