- Notifications no longer take on the hue/color of your wallpaper unless they appear while you're on the home screen.
- New wallpapers for from iPhone 7 keynote have been added to iPhone 7/Plus.
- Some home screen wallpapers are no longer dimmed. (Very light wallpapers are not dimmed, but the app names turn black.)
- Full Unicode 9 emoji support with 72 new emojis.
- New Preserve Camera settings.
- Star Ratings can be enabled in Music settings.
- New ‘Celebration’ Full Screen Effect in Messages. (Sends with a seperate "(Sent with celebration effect)" message to non iOS 10.2 or WatchOS 3.1.1 devices.)
- New Videos widget.
- Option to turn off Siri and Voice Control completely in accessibility settings.
- New Siri introduction screen.
- New option to sort playlists in Apple Music by Type, Title, and Recently Added.
- Notification Centre opens into the same view you closed it in. (Scroll depth is also retained for both pages.)
- "Show Contact Photos" setting for Messages now controls and applies to the photo at the top of conversations. (Option does not exist on iPhone 7 or 4-inch iPhones therefore it is impossible to show the contact photos at the top of conversations on these devices.)
- The Images section of the details view in iMessage conversations no longer shows stickers from iMessage Apps amongst normal images from the transcript.
- In Quick Reply, the title appears as the contact or group chat name instead of "Messages".
- Charging sound effect no longer plays if Keyboard Clicks are turned off (might be a bug).
- Added option for Messages notifications to show a preview of the contents only if unlocked. (When enabled, unlocking your device is required to use Quick Reply from the Lock Screen.)
- Activity data widget can now be added as a favourite in the Health app.
- All Day events show up on the Calendar widget. (Not working for Birthdays.)
- The Up Next widget now displays scheduled reminders.
- Slight inertia when dragging down Notification Center past the Search Bar when in non-springboard apps.
- Triple Click Home Button accessibility option now supports multiple new options.
- Status Bar no longer remains behind notification bubbles when a notification appears.
- In the Music app, you can now reorder the songs in the 'Up Next' list - as you could in iOS 9.
- New headphones indicator in Status Bar when connected to wireless (used to just be the Bluetooth icon).
Bug Fixes:
- Invisible button in Music app is finally gone!
- Safari keyboard bug has been fixed (different but intentional behaviour for text boxes and when entering in the Address Bar).
- When entering text in Quick Reply and then tapping the message box before sending, the entered text remains in the message box instead of being cleared.
- A bug that allowed specific wallpapers to make the dock transparent has been fixed.
- The "Downloaded" and "..." button overlap bug in the Music app on 4-inch devices and larger iPhones in zoom mode is fixed.
- The issue with the Calculator app keys making sounds when Keyboard Clicks are turned off has been fixed. (or not, need more data)
- Canceling a page swipe from a conversation in Messages, no longer results in the keyboard sliding to the right as the page slides back to the left.
- When Mail Preview is set to None, the email's HTML will show in multiple lines within a notification (Accessible by going to Settings > Mail > Preview > None).
- Safari will occasionally display an all white tab for a site you're viewing and reloading the tab does not return it to normal; you must close the tab and start again (has been this way in all iOS 10 betas without a fix. Closing safari in the app switcher resolves the issue).
- LGBT/Rainbow flag emoji isn't entered when tapped from the emoji keyboard. (Homophobic, much, Apple?)
- Now Playing sometimes opens full screen in Apple Music.
- Siri keeps timing out randomly on certain activities including those that are clock-related (i.e. setting an alarm, turning off all alarms) as well as the final "Send" command after processing a request for a new message. Other inputs work, such as setting a reminder. This issue clears with a reboot but then resurfaces randomly.
