I am. This beta is probably the best first beta since at least iOS 6 Beta 1. All of my apps work, and everything is very smooth.

That said, Beta 2 could be a pile of crap. There is always a huge risk in installing early betas.

Im considering it. Possibly for the next day or so and see how everything smooths out and how battery life is. As of right now I'm enjoying it!

So far, I've heard it's already better than iOS 9.0 beta 1 was. So at least that's a plus.

Not bad.

A little laggy but a reboot may fix it.

The new iMessage will open up 2 different text windows on the recipient computer.

You also can only send the new iMessages to people how have iOS 10.

So far so good for me. I had to restart it once to get Siri working correct. She was using her old iOS 8 voice for some reason lol. Using as daily all day today with no problems besides that.

Overall slowness and laggy here and there. Consider this is first beta so no need to brag.
New learning curve for certain actions like unlocking device though. Really don't think swiping right to activate camera is not a really good idea.
Looking forward to new "Continuity" though.

what error code are you getting?

14, it was due to not having Xcode beta installed. that fixed it. Then I had an issue because I restored from back up with my fingers crossed it would work but got an error saying my computer wasn't authorized for some of the purchases on my phone. Reauthorized but it didn't work, had to start over again and do it all fresh. Now waiting for it to sync all my apps back on. looks like watch will get done tomorrow.

The biggest issues lie with the notifications-proactive screen. Notifications don't work properly, proactive widgets don't all work, and my phone sleeps on its own when you try to respond to notifications on the wake screen.

im glad you got the code fix, i suffered from that error code 14 myself. i have a quick question. do we need to have the config profile installed to get the ota updates?

yes. I didn't do this though. Never know when an update to a beta will break something. This way I can do research before just letting apple update it for me. I know that it gives you the option but when i see the pop up i tend to just hit ok

Did the beta thing for iOS 9. I don't think I'm doing it this time.
This beta is already way smoother than 9 was. Still has some bugs here and there but that is expected.

Anyone have it on an iPhone 5?

Me!

It runs reasonably well, with minor but still noticeable stutters across SpringBoard, especially when a lot of blurs are involved. Invoking Control Center is a little bit laggy initially. However, once you are inside apps, things seems to run reasonably well, almost on par with iOS 9.3.2. Nothing like iOS 9 on iPhone 4s or iOS 7 on iPhone 4.

That is good I guess!
