A couple of things I've noticed. 6s plus 128

1. Doing a hard reset (power and home button) always takes a screenshot now no matter how I press the two buttons.

2. Text replacement shortcuts don't work. It won't even let me enter any entries and deleted my original entry.

3. Certain websites (like here in macrumors forums) while entering text, tapping backspace or return will make the page jump to the bottom of the screen.

But

But
1. Works for me, just hold it past the screenshot and the shutdown slider. Might be a hardware problem on your end.
2. Dunno.
3. This has been happening for a while.

Anyone notice you can't turn off Bing suggested results anymore?
The option isn't there in Spotlight anymore.

  1. I can't enable Genius in Settings>Music. The toggle just won't...toggle. Anyone suffering the same?
  2. Also, in Accessibility>Home Button, the checkmark beside "Default" is missing. If you tap "Default" Settings will just crash into the home screen. If you tap Slow or Slowest then tap back to Default, when you exit the page and return, the checkmark will appear on the last selection you made before tapping Default. Either Slow or Slowest.

I'm using the same phone as you.

Text replacement actually didn't work for me at all in beta 2. I clean installed the beta a few days ago, but the shortcuts didn't sync from iCloud. And the few I manually add didn't work also.

Yesterday after installing iOS beta 3, I went in the keyboard setting in my mac and clicks through a few shortcuts. Surprised to find out this morning that all are now synced and shortcuts work again. It seems to work a little different from before though. The text replacement sometimes show up in the predictive text, or next to the word if no predictive available.

Hmm. Anyone sees this? A filled notification centre.
Disappear after clearing some previous notifications.

App switcher freezing is very annoying

App switcher freezing seems to only occur on the first run after updating. Hasn't occurred on me ever since. I realized that it doesn't occur as much if you don't touch anywhere near the center of the screen.

I had to turn off iCloud back up because it was eating my battery like crazy. It was draining battery but it wasn't even backing up.

What's annoying is that its very low in volume compared to Beta 1, i've turned it to max but its way to soft. Hope they fix it in beta 4.
I noticed Bluetooth audio issues have been mentioned but I've had every build of the beta, through multiple restores both with and without backup, and I've not had any Bluetooth audio issues. Works perfectly with both my car and powerbeats wireless. No jumping, skipping or loss of connection.

My Bluetooth was a mess in beta 2 but is a lot more stable in beta 3. Powerbeats were unusable last week and are now perfect again.

Something that (I think) I've observed since b1, Mail doesn't fetch hourly. FWIW, it's checking a gmail account, not an iCloud.

I've noticed this too, it's a pain in the arse. Reported it to Apple using Feedback.

Also reported:

1. Lock screen not unlocking and hanging
2. Clock disappearing from top immediately after unlocking and going into Messages
3. 'Connect to WiFi Network' popping up constantly even when option turned off or connected to a network already.

Another thing: Is it just me or does anyone else have issues with Bluetooth music and it cutting out for a split second every now and then?

Beta 3 is much more pleasant to use on my iPhone 5. It's silky smooth, except for scrolling the widgets page.

I think there's an issue with the screen-on and the standby with beta 3

Is it right that notifications in the notification centre are no longer done per app but per day?! Or am I being stupid?
