173.1MB on iPhone X

 

[Miallo]

Battery life has been excellent so far (while downloading and connected to power supply)

 

[eveluvsrainbows]

202.1MB or so on my iPhone 7 Plus. Almost done installing, will report back or edit the WikiPost if I find anything.

 

[Tmelon]

No iMessages in iCloud yet

 

[dannyyankou]

Maybe it’s a placebo, but app close animation seems to be a bit quicker.

 

[slpro]

Fixed "Turn on Bluetooth" on App Store.

 

[H3LL5P4WN]

Does it finally fix the non-updating stock Weather widget on both the phone and Watch?

 

[TL24]

Fixed "Turn on Bluetooth" on App Store.

Thank god, that bug was annoying the crap out of me!

Are you having issues with the 7Plus while playing videos (in Twitter, Instagram)? Sometimes my phone freezes and starts working after a few seconds.

Home Button delay is still there.

 

[iSayBoourns]

Home Button delay is still there.

Sigh....

Can’t even go one page before this begins again.

 

[Zaft]

Sigh....

Can’t even go one page before this begins again.

Pretty annoying at this point...

 

[eveluvsrainbows]

Looks like this beta fixes the audio issue where playing music in a music app such as Spotify, and then switching to another app that plays audio such as YouTube would cut out the audio in the other app and not start the audio stream back up for that other app. Thank god it was fixed. That bug was kind of annoying.

Also, Carrier version for Fido and Rogers got bumped up to 31.0, and the modem firmware for the Intel iPhone 7 Plus got a minor bump up to 2.02.04.

 

[Radon87000]

Sigh....

Nothing is beginning. Its just a post telling users having the issue that its still there.

 

[macintoshmac]

Home Button delay is still there.

How about any improvement in everything else apart from this?

 

[DNichter]

Interested in changes for the X! I'd imagine we will see lots of little changes over 11.2 and beyond.

 

[greg624]

Got a new message and look for when you disable WiFi and Bluetooth. I didn’t screenshot the Bluetooth message but it did mention something about Apple Pencil on the iPhone X and I can’t even post the screenshot I have for it being too big

I'm having that issue on my 7 Plus. Hoping this update fixes that, or maybe it's a Twitter thing.

No, I personally never experienced that in beta 2, and I'm not experiencing it in the third beta either.

 

[Radon87000]

This is new

 

[Tattooed Old Dude]

Is the update for developers only or also public

 

[SumYoungGai]

Can anyone tell so far if the notification delay has been fixed? I know it's kind of early but might as well bring it up.

 

[greg624]

Also a new UI change, there’s a line under the icons at the top right in the cover sheet.
