I keep reading conflicting reports on whether Messages on iCloud is working properly in this beta. I installed on my iPad Pro but not yet on my iPhone X. Can someone confirm iCloud messages is working between iPhone and iPad?
It's working fine for me on both devices and my MacBook Air.
 
Not seeing any difference in performance or battery life. Seems to be a very underwhelming release to me
Radon87000, you’re the one who keeps complaining LOUDLY about the home button delay. With the above quote opinion you’ve proven yourself untrustworthy as everyone else says the exact opposite (much faster, great RAM management, battery life isn’t terrible, etc.) with proof. On the ignore list you go. Don’t bother waiting for my reply because I won’t see yours.

Good idea. tried 11.3 yesterday and it was a mess, then when I downgraded back to 11.2.5 i lost all my messages and had to wipe device and then restore from a back up from 2 days prior.

I read on Reddit that someone installed 11.3 on their iPhone X, enabled iCloud messages, then factory reset their iPhone X (still on 11.3) and all the messages synced back on the clean install which is great. But yeah I'm holding off for now.

Oh and the clean install seemed to fix his bugs on 11.3 on the X.

Don't care whether you put me on ignore or not. I have as much right as anyone else to post my observations here and I don't care how other people's devices perform as it doesn't affect my device. Compared to iOS 10.3 this doesn't seem to have made any great impact as claimed.

It is called BETA for good reason my friend. You of all people should know the perils of using beta software. Of course you are endangering your data by downgrading nilly willy. Crucial to maintain full encrypted backups of current version before updating to beta in case of needing to downgrade.

However in my case I am very pleased with iOS 11.3 beta 1 on iPhone 6, iPhone 7 and iPhone X.

As has been mentioned a few times, it’s a known issue and is addressed on the beta release notes.
That may be but I would imagine that Skype developers are scrambling this morning to make Skype play nice with iOS 11.3

Any other apps not working on iOS 11.3 on iPhone X aside from Barclays and Skype?

Between my 7 Plus and iPad 10.5 it’s working.
 
Did anyone else have major issues with CarPlay crashing 75% of the time on startup in 11.2.5? I reported it but it was close to the end of the beta when it was introduced and is there in the GM. If so, is CarPlay working any better at all? It was solid on 11.2.2.
 
With Messages in the cloud, I wish there was a way to keep them stored, but a setting on the phone to only display, say, the last 3 months of messages. I have messages that I would like to keep from a friend that passed away a year ago, but I don't need to see them on my phone every day.

Not sure "scrambling" as this is only the 1st beta of whats sure to be a long beta process. :)

There have definitely been plenty of inconsistencies to go around and undermine things.
 
The Live Wallpapers that were added for iPhone X (the ones from the commercial) are longer in 11.3
 
FYI
