No bedtime alarm sound! Anyone else have this issue. Just retested and the bedtime alarm only goes off if you don’t put the phone in vibrate mode.
Glad that fixed it. I’ve had the same issue for several days, probably since beta 2 was released, and just reported it. I’ll try the hard reset and hopefully that fixes it as well.
(iPhone 8 Plus)
Mine do, but I did a hard restart to fix the alarm issue with no sound, so maybe that will fix your issue as well?Live photos dont sound
Music icon grayed out bug its back or at least I wasn't having as much as in this beta, like 3-4 times a day in my 7+. 3D Touch fixes it or opening the app.
Am I the only one that has Search in settings completely broken? Nothing is found in this beta. Ever. At all. Not a thing. I put "notification", "backup" or whatever in the search bar on top of settings, no results at all.
The only thing I find is the name of the app, so app specific settings do get found and when I tap the result I go to settings for that particular app.
This is on iPhone X.

While there could be things that break specifically on iPhone X, but I found search to be more or less completely broken on macOS 10.13.1+ betas instead, where I was unable to search anything in any of my external drives attached, formatted with APFS.
Did not face such an issue with iOS, thankfully.
I keep hearing about people doing hard restarts. However, I have read that hard restarts of IOS are not a good idea and can potentially corrupt data. Just because one has never had any issues doing so, doesn't mean it is a good Idea. The same is true with Mac OS, Windows, etc.
Anybody care to weigh in on this. I would love to get some feedback concerning this practice.
Here is a recent article about it, by a former, Apple employee:
https://www.payetteforward.com/how-to-hard-reset-iphone-why-its-bad/
I don't have time to re-read it now,but I hope it is useful. I'm sure it shows some use cases for hard resets.
Thanks

On my 7, I have been seeing similarly great figures. By far the best figures on iOS 11 for me. I cannot say for iOS 10 at all, because the day I got my 7, this July, I restored iOS 11 beta 1 on it.
There's a chance of something going wrong, just as there is with hard resetting a computer or something similar. That said, given how often people have done and do those kinds of things with computers and all kinds of other devices, the chances are quite low. That doesn't mean the possibility isn't there and that just shutting down (and restarting) is safer from that point of view, but it also means that for the most part most people don't find the chances high enough for them to really worry about it and really avoid doing it at least sometimes.

iOS 11 is generally better on my 7+ than iOS 10 ever was. How funny is that! Lol.
And I can't get more than 6- 7 usage and 10-12 standby and be like 15%, are you on power save mode or just barely using the phone?

I will ask A THIRD TIME:
Does Siri/Dictation randomly stop responding to input for anyone else? Sometimes when I activate it, it works. Sometimes it doesn't register any input. Anyone else seeing this?

I'm not starting a war here, but what if third time goes unanswered as well?

It clearly shows standby hours and usage hours, and I don't think Power Save was enabled. That would be cheating.
Has anyone else noticed that the attention aware features do not work on this beta. My phone ringer does not lower when I look at my phone and the brightness is not affected by my attention.
Will he rage quit the game?I'm not starting a war here, but what if third time goes unanswered as well?
Btw Siri is only causing me trouble so I disable it completely.
Heh,
I hard restart my iPhone once a week and have done so for years and have never had data loss.
