iOS 10 Beta 4 Bug Fixes and Changes

[Ajaredic]

Works like a charm

Battery life has been improved tremendously in Beta 4, especially it does not drain 2-3% every 5 minutes any more. Its quite stable and even the standby time is good.

Another one here with great battery life. Currently stitting at 71%, normally I'd be at around 50%. Imagine this with a bigger battery and the A10 chip efficiency with the iPhone 7. Could see an extra 1-2 hours of battery life.

Anyone having issues with the QuickType emoji predictions? I'm typing words like pizza or coffee and no emojis are being suggested.

Working ok here.

I wonder if it takes a little bit for the emojis to start being suggested after a full restore vs an update

How's the shuffle all algorithm in Music? In beta 3 it was pretty poor. In my Recently Played playlist the same song would play roughly, 2 out of 5 times.

What the heck, there's barely any significance between this and B3. I'll see you guys at B5...

Don't expect many changes late in the beta process. But do expect performance improvements, which beta 4 is chock full of!

I don't think it's normal for things that were working near perfect before to be almost unusable at times now. I know things get broken sometimes when fixing other things. But shouldn't they see that this has happened and fix it before they release another beta to the public?

This is why we can't have anything nice. While each beta builds on the previous, there are different areas of focus for each one. So while they're testing different things, and focusing on different areas, some things that used to work fine, no longer do so. It's part of how the beta process works. If you're not happy with it, just go back to the regular 9.3.3.

What device is that? I don't even have all those icons and just with my carrier there isn't much room to add a data on iPhone 6 short of sacrificing most space that shows those icons on the right (like Bluetooth, location services, data usage spinner, alarm clock, etc.).

It looks like an iPhone 6. I think carrier name should be hidden unless you're actually roaming. That would leave enough space. There's no reason it couldn't be an iPad-only feature to start with.

More likely to be the same battery life but 0.1mm thinner...

Doesn't seem like an iPhone 6 as mine doesn't have that much space in the status bar as shown there.

This is the second beta update that has switched ALL my notifications from banners to alerts even though the setting is set to banner it still behaves like an alert.

I can make quick reply to work only if I disable 3d touch

Netflix still crashes while starting up on beta 4 for me like it did during beta 3. It worked fine on betas 1 and 2. I miss watching Netflix on my 12.9 pro. Does anyone else have this problem?

Seems to work oh here on my 9.7. Have you tried deleting, restarting and reinstalling? If so, I'm out of ideas unfortunately.

The accept meeting invite bug from beta 1 is back...the one that sends your response to EVERYONE on the invitee list, including group mailers... :/

Oh it'll be thinner but the battery will be bigger for sure, not just a 50 mAh increase but a 350ish mAh increase which will make a difference.

The iPhone 6s Plus has a 2750 mAh battery while the iPhone 7 Plus will have a 3100 mAh battery.

Does not work for me either as I type. Once typed I can switch to the emoji keyboard and it changes the font to yellow of any words i can emojify.

yeah exactly, but it should suggest emojis after you type words like pizza or coffee etc. It was working before, now it's not

Apologies, I've asked this before but can't remember: should the next Public Beta be released today or tomorrow following the release of Beta 4?

Whenever Apple decides to do it. Usually it's within a few days of the developer release.

Stopwatch has a bug.
If you start the stopwatch it starts counting, but it keep showing zeros

Huh. Mine works perfectly. Guess everything works better on a SE

Apple can do whatever it wants, but, with only one exception I can think of, its always 48 hours after the Dev Beta is released. So, likely tomorrow.

Incorrect. It's not always 48 hours after Dev. This kind of answer is why we keep getting all these questions about apples next move.
