iOS 10 beta 1 Bug Fixes, Changes and Performance Improvements

[Apple_Robert]

When trying to do an app search in the store, most of the time the screen stays blank with the progress wheel spinning indefinitely.

 

[ThunderMasterMind]

Interesting... App updates are working flawlessly for me.

That seems to work well inspite of the search problem.

That seems to work well inspite of the search problem.

I apparently have really good luck with this beta. Those problems don't exist for me, and neither does a lot of issues mentioned here. The only problem I have is static in headphones when simply using my phone.

This update has been great for me and I definitely don't see myself going back to 9 ever again. I personally hated 9.
[doublepost=1466048736][/doublepost]Ok what the f***s up with the ads in the App Store?

I am literally experiencing the exact same things... all 5. Reported to Apple!!

Emojis are now large when they are in their own bubbles (i.e. when ONLY emojis are sent). They are small (regular-sized) when accompanied with words in the same bubble.

And if sent emojis are more than 3 they will still be sent as normal size text in blue bubble.

 

[batting1000]

Nope! Can't tap or swipe or anything

Nope. Says updated and goes thru the motions but when I go back into the App Store, I have to redownload

Use the Update All button instead.

The ads are a new feature of iOS 10. I don't like it but understand the reasoning behind it.

 

[Camperniki]

This is minor, but I've noticed now on the status bar, for the carrier and data info, when on carrier, it shows"Verizon LTE" as in > iOS 10, but when connected to Wi-Fi, it shows "VZW W-Fi" and the Wi-Fi logo, as opposed to < iOS10, where it just showed the Wi-Fi logo and carrier name.

Not new. Did this as of I wanna say 9.2 but for sure in 9.3

Finally got Faces in my photos up and running. Pretty good at the facial recognition -- grouped everybody in their appropriate category, except a few pictures with some age differences.

Still can't get locations in Places to show up, but I don't know if that's a beta issue or if synced photos usually don't show up in Places anyway.

I had the App Store issue a while last night where no featured apps would load, or just the app name would load, but no description, review or rating, etc. That seems to have resolved itself for me.

Loving the notification redesign, especially the ability to clear all notifications with a 3D touch press, rather than having to go through the entire notification list by category.

This is minor, but I've noticed now on the status bar, for the carrier and data info, when on carrier, it shows"Verizon LTE" as in > iOS 10, but when connected to Wi-Fi, it shows "VZW W-Fi" and the Wi-Fi logo, as opposed to < iOS10, where it just showed the Wi-Fi logo and carrier name.

It shows VZW Wi-FI with the WiFi indicator right now in iOS 9.3.

The iPad clock moving to the right is not a bug it is supposed to do that.

Wut? Mine has never said VZW Wi-Fi its still the same as its always been.

VZW WiFi means you have WiFi calling enabled and connected to WiFi calling at the time. Works for AT&T and TMO that way too.

Ohh!!! I just enables it. I thought I already had wifi calling enabled, apparently not.

 

[Mlrollin91]

Ohh!!! I just enables it. I thought I already had wifi calling enabled, apparently not.

WiFi calling is so nice. Doesn't count towards minutes with AT&T and I can turn airplane mode on in low service areas and still get calls and sms messages. Plus receive calls on other devices, even when my iPhone is turned completely off.

 

[Hendo999]

I Can now update files over 100mb IN appstore

 

[Mlrollin91]

I Can now update files over 100mb IN appstore

Are you sure the file is truly over 100MB? Remember, the file size listed in the updates tab is the full app size, not the update size. The update could very well be under 100MB.

 

[Hendo999]

Are you sure the file is truly over 100MB? Remember, the file size listed in the updates tab is the full app size, not the update size. The update could very well be under 100MB.

Yes it came up with a popup with the warning. Then I pressed ok and it continued to download the update.

 

[C DM]

Yes it came up with a popup with the warning. Then I pressed ok and it continued to download the update.

I've ran into that once or twice in iOS 9 and/or 8 possibly.

 

[Hendo999]

Maybe a bug

No, what you described is normal behavior. iOS sees the app size as larger than 100MB, but the update itself is under 100MB. So even though you get the pop-up, as long as the update is less than 100MB, it will continue to download and install.

Just as I described. Full app size is listed as over 100MB, but the update itself is under 100MB. Therefore, the download will proceed, even after the pop-up warning.

 

[C DM]

Just as I described. Full app size is listed as over 100MB, but the update itself is under 100MB. Therefore, the download will proceed, even after the pop-up warning.

I've had apps listed as being above 100 MB and get updated without a pop-up first, and then others that would cause a pop-up. As far as I have been able to tell the pop-up would only appear of the actual update is over 100 MB.

 

[pietsteph0214]

Update All also doesn't work, alas.... The download progress "pie" remains empty, not even a tiny slice.
I can't help but think it's also tied to the failures to check for software update, like my attempts to connections are refused.

all my apps not updated before even it finished downloading and installing progress appear, but it back to nprevious state, right? I tried to Update All then cancel apps I don't eant to, and the apps i want to update is updated

That seems odd. Anytime the app is listed over 100MB in the updates tab I always get the pop-up. Then about 75% of the time, the app will download and update. Big games like Real Racing typically have updates that are over 100MB, which will leave a spinning wheel in the updates tab until I cancel or connect to WiFi.
