Happens all the time on my iPad Air, not just on 11.3, but on a lot of prior iOS versions as well. All iOS 11 versions, a lot of 10,etc. – I think it has to do with RAM.
I really haven’t seen it happen on my iPad Pro 10.5. Appreciate the feedback.

That's not a picture of the errors. That's a picture of the list of errors. You need to tap into them to get the relevant details
I know. Lot of intricate computer code stuff in there. Just posting it for reference.
 
Turned off my blocker, same result.
Looking at details of error, noticed mention of JavaScript crash. I turned off JavaScript and no reload problems. Think it may be JavaScript issue. If you don’t mind, could you check without JavaScript enabled and reload the page a few times?

Thanks.

Is said iPad Pro also the one your previous issue was described on? The iPad Pro also has a lot more RAM than my iPad Air....

Could I see any of the logs? Especially interested in seeing any reference to what specific WebKit process caused an issue (likely it'll say something like "thread belongs to")

Mines showed JavaScript was disabled by default on this beta for me. For sure, it was enabled on 11.2.5

Interesting. JavaScript has seen substantial changes in this built as well. Become a lot speedier (went from a Speedometer 2.0 score of 44 to 78).

Just got rebooted after installing the beta and my 6 Plus finally works faster. It’s no longer agonizingly slow. Most things like app switching, CC, are peppier. Now to see how fast the battery dies. I’m fully expecting to have to charge it during the day but I’m willing to do that and have a functional device again.

I noticed that as well. Turned it on, after noticing some websites loading funky. Thanks for confirming!
 
Has anyone noticed a drop in available storage?? After installing 11.3, I’ve lost 3GB from my iPhone 6s

Same here, i don’t know why!
Either of you use IPSW file to upgrade or OTA? Was this initially or after a day or so? I am not 100% sure but mine seems the same free space as it was. I did use iTunes and the IPSW file though. Just curious if its initial or after some use when starts hogging some space.
 
You can see favicons in the folders in Safari Favorites view now.

When I try to load this website, I get a reload webpage error. https://www.smallnetbuilder.com/

I posted a screenshot. When I check my analytics log, there’s a WebKit.WebContent error. I reported it.

Can someone else test this page as well. It’s a totally legit link to a networking website. Thanks
Opened ok on iPhone but no menu. Then enabled javascript and menu worked (sorta) not scrolling all the way. Then a refresh got me the same error as you. Tried on iPad Mini 4 and site loaded and menu worked with javascript still off. Have Adguard on as a content blocker on both.

[edit] Cleared safari history and website data and error came up immediately on iPhone at top but the page loaded. Safari is new in this build so I suspect there may be a few quirks. But certainly a clear history should be done. Also speedsmart.net (an HTML5 speed test) would bomb with same error during the download test on 11.x and still does in 11.3.

I believe they might have turned JavaScript off because of the known issue below in the release note.

Foundation
  • Clients of NSURLSessionStreamTask that use a non-secure connection fail to connect when an error occurs during PAC file evaluation and the system is configured for either Web Proxy Auto Discovery (WPAD) or Proxy Automatic Configuration (PAC). A PAC evaluation failure can occur when the PAC file contains invalid JavaScript or the HTTP host serving the PAC file is unreachable.

JavaScript was already off by default. Turned it on, same result.

It's an improvement, but it doesn't seem to remember the pref when I visit another app. Have to keep tapping "Show All" then "Sort by..."

Better than nothing. Definitely seems like a box that went unchecked on the features list for QA.
 
Interesting. Sure it will be fixed.

Great people here. Appreciate everyone’s help!

Great release! Most anticipated release of early 2018 until iOS 12 preview maybe in June with so much traction on this thread lol

Perfect that way I don’t have to go through a bunch of nonsense with erase and restores correct?

Nope, since it is basically the same build number with different release date/time. Hopefully, you can contribute to reporting bugs with us too! If you're not a dev, you can sign up for public and you can still keep the dev profile. You can use the Feedback app as long as you're either a dev or public tester.

If I'm reading correctly, the big advantage of Messages in iCloud is that you can recover the space that they were taking up on your phone by having them in iCloud and it sync better than before with your other devices?

Is this as secure though as what we had? I thought one of the things about Apple's implementation of Messages is that they are encrypted end to end and only exist on your device - they don't have access to the data at all on their servers. Wouldn't that change if it's all up in iCloud?

Wow. Only 24 hours and you guys are already up to 20 pages!

I’ll be sitting out this round of beta testing, but I’ll definitely keep up with what you all find. Good luck to the bug squashing.
