Well I've worked out the parked car. It no longer records you parking at home (worked in Beta 4 but not in Beta 5 so maybe needs adding to changes?). It does however work for me away from home apart from the lock screen notification.

Do people really forget where they parked their second highest priced asset (in most cases)?

Whether or not you accept my premise, Apple (or any other company) should not be circumventing the consortium that oversees the whole cross-platform emoji thing. They've gone rogue. What's the point of even participating? Imagine the reaction if the Android team had taken this attitude and just started changing emojis all willy-nilly...

IMO, Apple is free to not offer anything in the slot of "gun" - just display a blank space. But to commandeer the process is wrong.

Am I the only Earth residing first-world human using exclusively two textual based smile and wink ''emojis' to express non-linguistic emotion? I've no idea what any of these things mean for the most-part. Isn't it time we improve our vocabulary, rather than to accept the general dumbing-down of knowledge forced upon the masses? I understand it's fun to add them occasionally, but we seem to be taking these things way too seriously for our own good. It feels like these 'emojis' images have gotten out of control now. When did ASCII last add new characters (and I know some will argue this set have become overpopulated)?

Or other companies could follow Apple's way and replace it with a toy gun.

They aren't going to. It's clearly Apple's version of censorship. Don't want to say anything to get this moved to PRSI, but there are some serious unintended consequences by Apple going rogue with emojis...

For example, the simple suggestion of a picnic in the park could say something like this on iOS:
View attachment 644194

would look significantly different on an Android or Windows device.
View attachment 644193

IMO, Apple should either remove the gun emoji completely or work within the consortium to address the issue. The "water pistol" is NOT a solution. At. All.

-Animations are back to iOS 9 speed, hope they are still doing tests, I loved the super fast animations of Beta 4.
-The blur that appeared during the animation when launching/closing app is gone. Again, hope it will be back because it was kind of cool.
-Date is know in the widget page and I'm 100% sure it wasn't in Beta 4.
-Date fonts is also smaller in the widget page which is really cool.
-I like the new lock sound, the Beta 4 one sounded like the iOS 9 one but with a weird cut.

Well, it's still a gun. There's bomb and knife and car and all kinds of other ones that could be expressed in all kinds of ways and still be associated with what they are--why is a bomb an old timey cartoon type of bomb and not a stick of dynamite, or some sort of of a pipe bomb, or a bomb that gets dropped from an airplane, or why is a knife the knife that is used and not a pocket knife or a butter knife, or why is a dancer one with a dress doing particular looking dance and not someone doing hip hop or line dancing or something else--and we still treat the ones that are there as ones that represent what they are even though there are other options that might even be better (or worse), but would still represent what they are.

Absolutely correct. They could. But Apple went rogue by changing the intended meaning of the emoji irrespective of the consortium that they seemingly joint to develop and standardize the emoji "language".

Frankly, we've wasted too much bandwidth on this already...

Do you have previews turned on for messages (I'm assuming this is related to messages), and reply with message enabled for lock screen?

Apple didn't went rogue on this they actually lobbied the Unicode Consortium along with few other companies to not include some emojis that include guns in them like the Pentathlon shooting emoji. Apple's intention is actually clear and good on this.
They've been doing something like this for quite some time, like QuickType will never auto suggest you words like suicide, rape, etc.

They look like upside down iMacs. But that's a good thing. Bright header for the app name makes it easy to pick out each widget and the dark content area makes it easier to see the content within the widget.

Hopefully it's an intended change and hopefully makes its way over to Apple's own widgets in the next build. (Hopefully lots of feedback sent on this)

Fixed :
- In Beta 4, when Keyboard Click toggled off, there's still sound for delete,space,and other key except alphabets. But now, it's not.

Are u kidding? At least two more. There is still a lot of bugs.

Don't forget there will also be 10.0.1, 10.0.2, 10.0.3, 10.1, 10.1.2, 10.1.3, 10.2, 10.2.1, 10.3, 10.3.1, 10.3.2. 10.3.3, 10.3.4 and maybe 10.4 and 10.4.1. So there is plenty of time to kill all the bugs.

If your intention is to ask someone to bring a gun then perhaps typing g-u-n is better than communicating like a 12 year old girl.

Or maybe the intention was to bring a WATER gun to the park and it got communicated incorrectly to the non-apple user (think you read this wrong)

Folks need to send feedback how much slower beta 5 is compared to b4. Maybe they will turn b4 speed back on (clearly they can).

In Music all downloaded music ONLY sorts by artist no matter which view you choose (Artists, Albums, Songs).

Not seeing Lyrics for downloaded music (I have a few "test" songs that I added lyrics to)
