iOS 10.2 Dev Beta 1 Changes, Bugs, and Fixes

[Ryankontos]

They finally fixed the merged button bug from in the music app on 4 Inch devices. After like, 6 releases. *sigh*.

glad to see improvements being made overall. I just wish they would fix the animation issue on the 7 but thats looking less and less likely.

I submitted that as a bug.

A pesky one at that. Thanks again!

As many people have said, this isn't a bug. It's how it is because of the new Home button on the 7.

New icon for Bluetooth headphone battery level in status bar.

It's now a picture of a pair of headphones rather than a generic Bluetooth logo.

The activity widget can now be added as a favorite in the Health app.

Terrible

Terrible

Then if an animation is really bothering you, get rid of your iPhone 7. Simple.

New Bluetooth connected device icon..

Lol

Okay, so a few people have the ding still, some people don't.

Sounds like this may be a bug instead of a change.

I was thinking bug. Shame apple doesn't give us the choice of a ding as I prefer silent.

Edit. Just read your comments about keyboard clicks. Mine are off which makes sense now.

 

[stoney05]

Is the video widget new?

 

[SMIDG3T]

Lol

Exactly...

 

[AeroZ]

Is the video widget new?

Did you even read the OP?

 

[Denis1987]

I can confirm that syncronising with car bluetooth is at least 3 times faster than it was with 10.1. I am using 7 plus.

 

[mitchsaunders]

Don't know if this has been pointed out but when you force touch/swipe (press view) to reply from NC, instead at the top it saying MESSAGES it shows the app icon & the contact name of who you're replying to.

Noticed it on my iPad. Phone still on 10.1.

 

[I7guy]

This beta something changed with "input blocking". With 10.1 I could pull down on my notification and press "confirm", "deny" and it would take a few seconds or so before the press would register. This beta seems to have resolved that that issue and am able to press "confirm", "deny" immediately after pulling down on the notification. Good job apple.

 

[Hansana]

FINALLY they fixed the notification centre bug where I'd get random "flashing" and lines running down the screen

Thank god. It was painful.

 

[Hansana]

My phone (iPhone 7 Plus) no longer goes ding when you plug in the charger. Anyone else notice this issue or is it just me?

EDIT: And yes, because someone will ask, the mute switch is not on silent.

I think they removed it.

 

[VSMacOne]

Now I wonder if they resolved the issue with the Calculator app keys making sounds when keyboard sounds are turned off (and the phone is not on silent/vibrate). This has been an issue in iOS 10 so far, but perhaps they got it fixed in iOS 10.2?

Fixed.

Activity Notifications still reactivate themselves after a while. Annoying !
