My 7 Plus and iPad 10.5 are on 11.3 b1 and running very well. There are a few bugs, but nothing that stops me from using my devices. Already reported. Both my devices feel quicker and smoother on 11.3. I can tell the difference.
Looking forward to future betas.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but this now happens when tapping on a song title while playing a playlist-
See my pic its very random tmobile wifi calling. Its on now and it goes from 3 bars to 4 and wifi calling stays on and it can drop down to 1 bar and wifi calling will not turn on by it self! Its def a bug so everyone knows and i can force it to hve LTE and wifi icon by turbing airplain mode on and off again and wifi calling wil stick

Yes, this was mentioned and listed on front page
I think this is the new intended behavior. Verizon and AT&T both have a threshold for when the phone switches over to WiFi calling instead of the macro network. There’s really no reason to use WiFi calling if you have a good signal, WiFi calling was designed to be a band aid for poor coverage. It seems now that t-mobile has improved their coverage as much as they have, they are willing to try putting some of their users back on the macro network, presumably, t-mobile feels that would provide a better experience.
It seems that they fixed most lag on the system. My 6 Plus used to run like garbage and now it’s much better. But content blocker sometimes doesn’t work.
Hi all.
Still, Iphone 6Plus here. Constant re-booting while using FB Messenger dedicated apps.
Also, cpu always on max frequency now, 1400 Mhz.
From previous v11.2.5, cpu stays immediately at 1127mhz (100 battery level) then at 50 battery level, hits 839MHZ.

That is right. 6 cores. 4 efficiency cores and 2 performance cores with base CPU clock 2064 and max clock at 2384 than stated 2390
I realize this might not be something you want to do, but if you call T-Mobile they will send you a cellspot for free. I live in a very old brick building in which very little cell signals exist. They were happy to send me one. No monthly fee or anything like that.
Now, on 11.3, unless I’m in an area with poor coverage, WiFi Calling doesn’t even connect. I’m ok with that.
Hit 8 hours with 4 % remaining yesterday. Don’t remember the last time I got 8 hours of usage time
For all we know, half of the people may not be using backups/not understand what a beta is (which I know both of). Also, people could be doing a FULL restore and set up as new to move stuff over, not restoring from backup.

Anyone else having trouble getting Messages in the Cloud to work? I don't even have Messages as an option in my iCloud account settings so I can't even turn it on. When I installed the beta I did not have iCloud Backup enabled. I do have 2FA enabled. I have since enabled iCloud Backup after reading on here that it was required. I forced a backup just in case that was needed but so far nothing. I have rebooted several times and nothing. I do recall getting a Messages in the Cloud splash screen the first time I opened the Messages app after installing the beta. I do not recall what it said but there was just a Continue button at the bottom and nothing else like a Turn On or Turn Off choice like I've seen others post. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!
AirPlay 2 is amazing, its exactly what AirPlay should have been all along. This is exactly what I have always wanted. I can't wait for Sonos to update my speakers to include AirPlay 2 so I can directly control everything within iOS instead of having to go into the Sonos-app all the time. Don't get me wrong, I love Sonos and what if offers. I replaced all my AirPlay (v1) speakers with Sonos and it gives me much better flexibility and much better speaker managements, grouping and multi-room.
But using Apple Music within the Sonos-app doesn't compare to using the actual app, not at all. And its rather fiddly to always have to use the Sonos-app for controls and the app itself is such a battery hog for no apparent reason. I'm currently testing AirPlay 2 to three of our rooms as all three have Apple TV's in them running tvOS 11.3 BETA1 and grouping and everything is so easy directly in iOS. When the Sonos-speakers get updated with support for AirPlay 2 I will basically never have to use the Sonos-app ever again for anything else other than setting up new speakers and firmware upgrades.
