Have anyone tried the "multi language keyboard"? I'd like to know how it works and how many languages can be active at once.

I keep swiftkey just for this feature.

I think the keyboard dynamically shifts among all the languages available in iOS. I believe in the screenshot below the term 'two languages' is used loosely and colloquially. Pretty sure you can go from English to French, French to German, German to English in the same text field.

Is the input blocking gone from the springboard? I mean can you tap apps mid animation when closing apps and have it register? Or is the still the same way as iOS 9 where you have to wait till the animation is 100% over? Act3 you out there? :)
No, sadly it isn't :( Still input-blocking animations, still very slow animations and still animations often stutter :( I hope they are working on it during the next betas…

Another bug or perhaps omission is that notifications cannot now be grouped by app.

My biggest breakage remains Facebook. I've also experienced a near hang. I could switch apps but no keyboard would pop-up nor would other app interactions work. A reboot was needed

Here are a few things i have noticed so far...
Sorry if it was already mentioned, i havent read all the 20 previous pages ;)
- Music app: No more ratings when tapping on the cover art.
- EQ aren't working
- Settings: facebook icon is damaged
- Contact picture on Exchange doesnt work properly (Deleted, resized, cropped)
- Volume overlay removed while playing video or music
- Widget fixed size is a pain. I use Agenda+ Widget and now i'm stuck to 3 lines out of 10
- Sometime the UI get confused between a tap and long press.
- News widget shows french topics but the News app still isnt available on the French App Store.

There are so many Accessibility options, they might as well move it to a dedicated section outside of the General section.

As some have said, this is the best beta 1, I have ever had.
If they keep going that way, iOS 10 might finally be a very good one.

Looks awesome, thanks a lot!

Can't wait for the public beta's to try all of this. Either wait or just yolo it and install the dev-profile on my daily driver..

Welcome!

I took the plunge and installed it on my daily, been pretty stable so far with just some minor crashes. Weirdest thing I've had happen is my home button stops responding and I have to restart to get it working. That's happened twice now. Haven't figured out how to replicate it yet. It's a very usable beta though!

So you need to have the second keyboard added under Settings -> General -> Keyboards but now you don't have to switch to it to type. In my case my second keyboard is Spanish, so I just type using the English keyboard and the quicktype detects it's Spanish and makes suggestions in Spanish. PRetty cool.

Good :) You've got a dev account? I heard that just getting the dev OTA beta profile and installing on a non-dev / non-registered UDID just worked, but I'm not 100% sure. I kinda wanna take the plunge..

In my two cents, the beta is very buggy. I'm using it on my daily driver, but not sure if I will keep it. The alarm bug alone threw me off this morning. Had to delete my morning alarm and force restart to get rid of the snooze on lock screen. The battery is abysmal on my 6S Plus (then again could be because I've been using it nonstop). Has gone down 30% in the last hour. Facebook app is broken but i dont care since I dont really use it, but lots of UI elements are unresponsive such as Snapchat you have to tap snap icon multiple times to snap a pic or it doesn't respond.

I'll wait till end of day today but likely downgrading to ios 9.

Acquiring the Developer profile is enough, email it to yourself, install profile, restart and iOS 10 beta 1 will be available for OTA update.

To be honest, i can't recommend to install any beta as a daily driver.
Even if I did, but i have a spare phone with a previous backup, just in case.
It's gonna be only up to you... but i guess that if you are reading this thread, you won't resist the temptation much longer.
Anyhow, nothing is permanent ;)

But it's a really good beta, feels more like a beta 4 or 5 than something just coming out of alpha.

Did anyone find how to display next playing list? In previous Music app this was pretty easy, using three horizontal lines. I'm finding this new version as step back regarding ease of use. :/

Has anyone found that the screen brightness (on max) isn't as bright as it used to be? (Might just be me.)

For those asking, you can install without a DEV account. Just download the profile (remove existing profile) and you'll have ability to update OTA.

It's stable for the core stuff, a few minor glitches that shouldn't cause much issues.

Yeah, that's what I did last summer for the iOS 9 Beta, worked like a charm!

I have a dev account now, for other reasons, but the betas are a nice bonus that come with it for sure.

Bug:


When in Safari and you highlight a word and press the new "Look Up" option for the first time, a popp-up will appear explaining the new feature. Once you click "Learn More", a text window opens with a lot more information about the ne Look Up feature. However, when you scroll a little on this text, the entire app crashes. Anyone else having this problem?
