iOS 10 Beta 4 Bug Fixes and Changes

[lagwagon]

Do you mean face time between beta 4 and other iOS 10 betas?

Yes, beta 4 can't FT to beta 3, 2 or 1.

It says so in the description. "Between this beta and older iOS and macOS betas"

 

[biostreber24]

Why would you do that? This is exactly the kind of thing that gets reset often during beta periods, and likely will again before the GM.

People just don't understand betas.

Thank you for telling me,I thought the beta would be perfect!
Sarcasm off: I know it is beta software and therefore there are bugs and nothing is for sure. I love testing new software. And to get the full potential I have to use this feature as well. That's not a mistake!

Not sure what you mean by the messages thing. I'm able to long press and get to the bubble/full screen animations on my iPhone 6.

Zooming seems the same as it's always been and no different in beta 4.

I've restarted twice and it does not work for me. Worked in b3 for me. Are you trying to send to a iOS 10 or 9 user?

Are you saying it's the same as other 10 betas? Because it's definitely much more of a zoom compared to iOS 9

Is there a way to hide the digital touch and app store buttons in Messages?

Works with Google keyboard.

Thanks. I haven't used the Google one and I'd like to clarify a couple of things?

When you say it works do you mean that: -

- The Google keyboard has a built in emoji keyboard that works without having to have the emoji keyboard installed in settings?
- Does the orange replacement thing when you switch to emoji work, the live suggestions of emoji when you type, say, "cake" or both?

Thanks again!

Emojis are shinier too now

Skeumorphic design is making a comeback!

Yeah, I thought the same as I had seen those new emoji style. Maybe Apple prepares a new design change in the next major release next year (the iMessage bubbles with the two characters instead of a contact picture seems also be more 3D for me...

The old Notification Center behavior is back - you don't slide to reveal the content (like in beta 1-3), the content moves with your finger as it did in previous iOS versions.

The messages. Are you saying you can't even access the bubble/screen options? Please clarify.

Might be more compared to iOS 9 (don't have two phones to side by side to compare.) But it's definitely not more zoom compared to all iOS 10 betas. (Tested with an insect photo that I know how far I was able to zoom in on previously and it's the same today on b4.)

Just tested with my GF on 9.3.3 and it works fine. So I guess this is only between betas ... piouf!

Nothing is actually faster. The transitions have improved making everything feel more fluid. In fact I think app open times are slightly slower!

The Google keyboard has the predictive emoji without having the Apple emoji keyboard installed.

The orange emoji replacement does not work in the Google keyboard. You still need the Apple emoji keyboard installed and switch to it to see the replacements

I'm absolutely convinced that the MS Office apps at least are opening faster for me in this beta. I don't just mean the animations but the actual time until I can type something.

Right i think this is a bug too!!!
Looks like there is a jumping animations too!!!!

Thanks. Really appreciate you taking the time to check that out. I think I'll try to find an email address or contact for SwiftKey to see of they'll implement one or both of these.

 

[SpaceRhinos]

Nothing helps!

I've been having the same exact issues with location services! I keep a few of them off, but for the ones that I do keep on, it's constantly purple/filled out. I'm not sure what to do at this point.

That makes no sense. "The transitions have improved". Yes, they are faster as are app launches. Period.

How is the battery life,?is the same as beta 3 ?

 

[utwarreng]

• Gun is like a green water gun now or something lol.

This feels like dumb censorship just for ***** and grins on their end, or to push an anti-gun agenda.

Way too soon to tell. Check back in 2-3 days.

 

[iOSUser7]

To everyone that could not update from iOS 9 via OTA, it works now, I just checked for updates and it found the Beta 4. Great news as I was downloading the .ipsw which would take like 2 hours to download. :0

Transitions play with our mind to make us think apps are opening faster. The smoother the transition, the more our minds are tricked.
Apple has always used this trick well compared to Android which make people think those phones are a stuttering mess. Some of them are but Apple can mask their stutter with some well timed transitions.

Yes, that's censorship, right.

Or it seems some people are actually seeing actual faster launches of at least some apps.

Works with Google keyboard.

But didn't it from the get-go? That's a Google feature, not iOS 10.

It definitely feels smoother than B3. But I can't say it's faster. Some apps have seen a performance boost with their own updates especially some of the Google Apps.
Either way I have no complaints since B3 was solid for me and this seems no worse!

Office was not updated either between the last time I used it (yesterday) or the last time ios was updated (this morning)
