Anyone else of a certain age feel that typing on iOS 10 now sounds like you are playing Knight Lore on the Spectrum?
Yes and I posted that setting wallpaper to Still instead of Perspective fixes the issue in another thread. I've also been posting that fix to a few Reddit posts and yet people still complain "OMG MY DOCK IS BROKEN".
I can tell you that this only fixes the issue temporarily. I have just had it happen again on my 9.7 Pro after setting my wallpaper to still instead of perspective.
Weird. It was mostly happening on an iPhone 6 Plus and 6S Plus. Those that I've messaged on iPhone found this as a temporary fix until the next beta. Seems to be an issue with Parallax.
Now my iPad Pro 9.7 has always had wallpaper set to Still and it's not having the issue. I guess I could change it to Perspective and see what happens. My point was mostly for those with iPhone seeing the issue. At least to give it a shot before complaining about a known issue. I know restarts and restores don't fix it.
Meanwhile, in Cupertino, the Apple PR people are sipping lattes and saying " That'll stop 'em from asking about Dark mode for awhile!"
Off topic, but does anyone know how the 'maps destinations' widget actually works? No matter what I do it always stays as 'no upcoming destinations' confused
Say for example it's Thursday at 4pm and you're out somewhere, and normally you're home around that time on a Thursday. It will then suggest directions to home.
It's based of time of day, what day and where you normally are at those times and days to suggest directions to places.

It totally does and it's kinda awesome IMO.
Hmm. I have tons of albums which artist field mismatch album artist field. And iTunes just shows up those artists individually. I don't think it can do some magic and know "who features who", just know whether artist field is the same as album artist field.I guess so. Basically because it's no longer the same as the Album Artist field I think it must know something's different. See it like this:
It doesn't show because both the Album Artist field and Artist (single) field are the same.
But..
This recognizes that some tracks match the Album Artist field but others don't (like track 6) so it makes note of that.
And in this beta, iTunes shows "show complete album" when they detect non-consecutive track number sequence, regardless if the song/album is available in Apple Music.
Well again this is like manual editing in iTunes but if you have the full album it should be listed under whatever artist it is (so album artist field when you select Get Info should only show one name, then when you go to whatever track may have any features and you change the artist field but NOT the album artist field it will display as above).
I don't think it's any difference on Apple's part other the recognizing that the two fields don't match but the album is still listed under the same album artist field.
Curious, On the blue send option in Messages, (send with effects) does this require 6s or above with 3D touch? If not how would one use that without 3D like say an iP6?
[Edit] In case anyone wondering its long press on non-3D touch and firm press with 3D touch.

In previous builds, in the iPad Control Center, only the current pane could be swipped on, which was counterintuitive as you'd try to drag the next or previous pane to swipe and it would do nothing.
This has been fixed in b5 and the draggable area even includes the space between panes, which is a good thing.

I find two things annoying with the way the messages app handles sending photos:
1) if you click the photo icon and you swipe left looking for a picture and you can't find it, you have to close out the "picture" keyboard and start over. There is no way to get to the photo library quickly or snap back to the beginning.
2) what is the point of having the round shutter button in the small viewfinder if clicking the whole viewfinder takes the picture? I think they should make the button bigger, and clicking the whole viewfinder should open up the full camera view.
Is there any workaround for these two things? Maybe it'll be fixed/changed in final version?

I just discovered this... I have keyboard sounds off... but I also have the TextExpander keyboard installed... and despite the "off" setting for keyboard sounds, I get keyboard clicks while typing with the TE keyboard. This is true on both my iPhone 6S Plus and my iPad Mini 4...
Can anyone confirm this on another keyboard? It might be just the TE keyboard, though there are no options for sounds on that keyboard.

Wow, pretty good. This morning I was at 95% with only 35 minutes of usage and 1 hour a 5 minutes stand by. Not good 
I even had Apple run a remote diagnostic and the battery came back OK. Probably some OS corruption somewhere
I even had Apple run a remote diagnostic and the battery came back OK. Probably some OS corruption somewhere Don't know about you guys, but I am relatively impressed with battery life in this last beta on my iPhone 6. PB2 was ok but not impressive. PB3 was quite bad, had some issues with some locations services running all the damn time, and also Siri using 5-10% of battery life out of nowhere (both issues were probably linked).
Now that these two things are fixed and probably because of some others optimizations, battery life is very promising. 7 hours of usage without any music played and nearly 30 hours of standby, don't remember numbers as good as this since iOS 8, which was amazing in terms of battery life.
I hope it stays this way until the final release...

Oh, damn, I missed Becca D today
Perhaps it will get fixed by GM with the addition of Discovery Mix as well.
I am so glad you posted this. Meetings I've been sent were being sent out again as if I was the organiser. This was very embarrassing as it was sending meeting invites out to 50+ people in the company I work for.
I had to switch off the Exchange link on the iPhone to resolve this - but of course this now means I don't have any emails and I am too nervous to switch it back on.
Anyone confirm if they had this issue and if it is now resolved in the latest beta's ?
Thanks,
Mark
