iOS 10 beta 1 Bug Fixes, Changes and Performance Improvements

[Nyk0n]

False. At least not on a 6S you couldn't...not in the later versions anyway (9.2, 9.3, etc)

Not false I was doing it on iOS 9.3.3 beta on my 6+ right before upgrading

Make sense to me, Touch ID unlocks your iPhone, the Home button takes you to the home screen.

yup that how apple takes it too...raise to wake is only on SE/6S/6S+ now grabbing your phone with your thumb pressed wont unlock the phone and dismiss the notifications. personally those of us without raise to wake like this new unlock way better and that is way more people than those with the capability

Message history on iPhone is gone after downgrading to iOS 9.3.2, upgrading back does not help. Does anyone have a solution?

Alarm volume setting is ignored in both Alarm and Bedtime mode, always plays at full volume - nearly **** my pants. Tested on iPhone 5, iPhone 6, iPad Air 2, iPad mini 4.

Keyboard sensitivity problem - a tap will frequently count as a double tap (Shift/Caps, 123/ABC). Tested on iPad Air 2.

hmmm i dont have that volume issue under the bedtime tab hit options the volume specific to the bedtime alarm is there.

Go into Location settings, System Services, and turn them all on. Even in product improvement. Then it will work. There is some combination that needs to be on but i was too lazy to play around. Only ones i have off are location based iAds, home kit, compass calibration, time zone, and diagnostics and usage. But that fill fix your problem.

wow thanks.....mines working now too and was wondering why it wouldnt

Messages are a database...if you downgraded the database was likely replaced with a compatible copy for 9.3.2, when you upgraded back to 10 it didnt restore because there was nothing to restore

Annoying that the Today screen has gone. I used to rely on that if I was in an app and wanted to know the date. Be nice if on the pull down for notification centre or the shortened search bar they could add another status line with more indicators and the date

well the lock screen shows the date and time, and you could put Calendar and Clock on your main screen so no need to enter widget mode...just food for thought

Is anyone having trouble to connect to a Bluetooth speaker? It connects immediately but it doesn't recognize it as a speaker for music or phone calls.
If I reboot the speaker then it recognize it as a speaker.
Didn't have this problem with iOS 9!

 

[Liebo]

I've been having an issue where certain keys display with a truncated background when switching to the symbols.

Beta 2 today? Probably next week if they are on iOS 9 Scheudle

 

[DJLAXL]

Beta 2 today? Probably next week if they are on iOS 9 Scheudle

Hoping for today/tomorrow, but most likely next week.

 

[daleski75]

Also hoping for today/tomorrow but reckon they will release beta 2 next week.

 

[gwhizkids]

Beta 2 today? Probably next week if they are on iOS 9 Scheudle

Seriously doubt this week. Remember, much of the team was at WWDC with the developers. Plus, this is not a x.x release, so there's probably a lot more code to adjust between betas than, say, for 9.3.3.

 

[Shaqtus]

I was hoping for beta 2 today but I don't think so

Please report bugs to bugreport.apple.com (a developer account is not required to do this).

Please post bugs, changes, etc. in appropriate categories and subsections of this post.

iOS 10 Beta 1

Build: 14A5261v

Bugs:

• Mute during phone calls does not work.
• Using Force Touch to respond to a text message from the Lock screen sometimes results in a text reply window that cannot be closed with the Home button or the UI element. You need to reboot the phone to recover.
• Certain widgets are cut off in the new Spotlight/Today view.
• When plugged into my car via USB, Siri speaks no matter what in Maps while driving despite "No Voice" being selected.
• Large Music Controls on Lock screen (may be an unfortunate feature).
• Screenshots on Lock screen broken (device turns off, no screenshot in Photos).
• Apple Music features are not able to be hidden. Toggling the "Show Apple Music" setting currently has no effect on the redesigned Music app.
• Alarms remain on the Lock screen as "Snoozing" with a minus amount of time once they have been stopped.
• When trying to reply to posts in Safari (could be all HTML textboxes) - Safari will jump to the bottom of the page and you cannot see what you're typing!
• Built in Home app does not support well EVE and August accessories.
• When choosing an alarm in Clock app for Bedtime Mode, that sample alarm will sound until you force close the app.
• Turning off Keyboard sounds also turns off Taptic feedback for the Mute switch.
• Rotating iPhone 6s and iPad Pro 9.7" will sometimes lock orientation in place. A reset will fix the issue temporarily.
• iPad Pro 9.7" audio glitches and becomes totally silent when plugging in headphones.
• 3D Touch Shortcut popup for both the Phone and FaceTime apps incorrectly show which telephone number identifier is for each Favorite (all numbers are shown as "Home", and not as "Work", "iPhone", "Main", etc). Tested on a 6s and 6s+. The relevant telephone number identifier is shown correctly in the Phone App's Favorites and Contacts App.
• Choppy performance when switching tabs in Safari with Reduce Motion switched on.
• Facebook icon in Settings not rendered correctly (for some).
• Lock sound is heard even when set to off in Settings.
• Favorites doesn't show the correct tag for the phone number (but does dial the correct one).
• Within ANY app, Notification Center UI is broken and if you swipe down slowly from the top, the Taptic Engine gives out two vibrations (NC must NOT be empty). (iPhone 6s and 6s Plus only).
• In any app, double pressing the Home button to enter multitasking sometimes causes the device to go to the home screen, then immediately switch to multitasking view.
• Home.app bug when connecting to a Schlage Sense home deadbolt. Shows as a "Not Supported" accessory due to needing a firmware update (there isn't one and it doesn't need it). At this time, the button can't be pressed. After messing with menu settings (long/hard press on button), it works temporarily and shows as fully supported (button can now be pressed to lock/unlock). Also, Favorite Accessories in the Control Center for Home.app shows it as "Not Supported" as well when you swipe over to it.
• When sending someone a PDF from Notes app, if you write a message along with it first THEN enter the contact it's intended for it'll erase the PDF attachment and written comment
• Reachability works intermittently (6 Plus)
• Alarm volume setting is ignored in both Alarm and Bedtime mode - sound is always played at full volume.
• Keyboard problem: tapping Shift once will often initiate Caps, tapping the ".?123" button will often immediately switch back to letters (iPad Air 2)
• In the Today/Widget view on the Home Screen, pressing the home button and swiping to the right (back to the Widget view) immediately after will make the home screen icons slide to the right, the widgets slide to the left, leaving the home screen empty until the home button or the screen is pressed again.
• Downgrading to prior iOS versions will remove all message history in messages app. Updating back to this beta does not solve problem.

Changes:

• General
  • 3D Touch Cellular Data shortcut for Settings.
  • New Face Gallery section in Apple Watch app.
  • Bedtime alarm for Clock app.
  • New Keyboard clicks sound.
  • Camera: photo filters & swap camera buttons switched around.
  • If your iPhone is locked, Touch ID still works the same way as it did before. If you wake the phone and then apply your finger it'll say "Press Home to open".
  • "Unoptimized for iOS 10" warning in some apps.
  • DFU Mode now shows URL to Apple support for restoring.
  • 3D Touch Folder with a notification shows the app with the notification.
  • Music no longer stops when Camera is open and taking a photo.
  • The dialog box for deleting apps is different (Delete is now in red and on the right side).
  • Ability to exit out of loading apps (pressing the Home button).
  • The method to enter data points into health app, such as blood pressure measurements, has seen removal of "add data point" option in favor of a "+" at the top of the screen.
  • Photos saved/synced on phone are analyzed and tagged for search function. New People folder under Album.
  • Copy and Paste tool seems to be more consistent and a little quicker (only requires one press to bring up, can remove this if multiple users say otherwise).

  • iPad: In lockscreen horizontal view the clock is aligned to the left and music controls/artwork take up the entire right half.

• iPad
  • Home screen icon for Command + Tab App Switcher.
  • Split view for Music.
  • Split view for Safari (open two safari windows side by side). This is not true multitasking, as the two windows cannot be resized.

Please refrain from posting "Downloading" and keep on topic discussing the changes in this beta. Also please refrain from posting just "lag" and "stutter" issues with this beta, as it is in the early stages of the beta process.

Within ANY app, Notification Center UI is broken and if you swipe down slowly from the top, the Taptic Engine gives out two vibrations (NC must NOT be empty). (iPhone 6s and 6s Plus only).

This is supposed to happen. It's a way to do spotlight search from anywhere. Hence the Taptic feedback

 

[PI4SKR]

Hey guys
Was just wondering whether there were any changes to the videos app in iOS 10.
Its awfully bland and could do with a revamp!
I mean how long do we have to wait for a search bar?????

Thanks

Seems like the Alarm was way overdue and you been snoozing it..

 

[nsblum]

Can anyone confirm that selecting a Ringtone or Text tone for specific contacts doesn't show any downloaded or sync'd tones from iTunes or Zedge?

 

[Johnhimm]

I like the lift to show the lock screen but id also still like to tap the Touch ID to unlock. I try to save my home button as much as possible.

Have you ever wore out a home button? Just asking.

 

[Mlrollin91]

Have you ever wore out a home button? Just asking.

I did on my iPad 2, but after 4 years. Clicks wouldn't register unless they were forceful. But with that being said, I don't baby my home button in fear of it wearing out. Thats the primary way I open my phone, a quick click of the home button and my 6s pretty much opens.

Something that annoys me probably more than others! Is the fact apple choose to ruin my background by putting a horrible darkened filter/layer or whatever they do. I know what the reason is but I just don't see the need for it, should be optional. I've tested many backgrounds and the way it does this is quite random. You can choose a background that's almost white all over and it won't darken it! But it looks awful and clashes with app icons etc. Choose a colour background that doesn't clash (like below) and it darkens it and ruins it!

The reason I'm posting in here is because it seems like Apple have made the darkening even more aggressive! Take a look at these images:

Image in photos app.

And here it is as my background:

Probably not a bug, but I really would like this made optional, it's not done on any other handset I've had that isn't apple. Surely we are intelligent enough to not select a background that clashes with text on the screen!!?

Anyway, sorry rant over! Just annoys me that this never gets addressed but I know many will say they aren't bothered by it!

Thanks, I've never noticed it. But now I can't stop noticing it :/ it clearly darkened the wallpaper, but it seams reasonable.

Sorry!

Its more noticeable on certain styles/colours like above. It just appears more aggressive in the beta.

No problem I've compared it to 9.3 and it seems nearly the same, but my wallpaper isn't so colorful. Let's hope it's a bug and it will be again more vivid in the future

 

[PurrBall]

Can once again scroll through folders while they animate open (been broken since iOS 8)

 

[lagwagon]

Wouldn't going into Photos app and editing the brightness up a bit on the image help you counter it? It's not a toggle option you want but it would fix your issue.

 

[Codeigniter]

Bug: iTunes U crashes (Doesn't open)
