Once iMessage in iCloud is enabled on my iPhone and iPad, shouldn’t the messages (content and sequence) be the same on both devices?

Do I need to / is there a way to “force a sync” with iCloud messages?

For me (and if I remembered correctly others before as well) it only fully synced the messages that came in since the activation of the iCloud sync.

Yeah... it seems to be “working” - in that new messsges arrive almost simultaneously, and deletes on one device carry to the other.

But I expected (and why wouldn’t you) that when enabled and a back-up to cloud done that all of the devices messages would merge and time-order into one cohesive “iMessage repository” on iCloud, and therefore viewing it from any device would appear the same.

Maybe later beta version refinements will come...
 
Does anyone else have the Messages app have to constantly reload if you open another app? Other apps stay open just fine but Messages in particular has issues for me.
 
Blocked numbers are ringing my phone! They are expected to face a busy signal. I unblocked and blocked again, they can still call me. I changed the vibration and ringtone to "none" for that contact, the phone still rings!!!
[doublepost=1517400524][/doublepost]I am unable to drop a review in App Store. I can tap the stars, I can give a title to my review, but I cannot enter anything in the review text area, nothing appears there, and the "send" button is disabled.

The App Store review issue is normal while on a beta. The blocked number ringing through is a bug. That should not be happening.
 
Add blockers like 1blocker are not working. They keep on getting disabled under Safari settings.

By the way, blocked calls won't get a busy signal, from the callers end they would sound like normal calls that would end up going to voicemail.

This needs to change. An old jailbreak tweak, iBlacklist, would allow you to choose what the blocked caller hears with busy signal, auto-hang up, continuous ringing, etc. as options.

The current solution (ringing through to voicemail) only confirms to the robocallers that they’ve reached a valid number that can continue to be harassed and shared.

Gettin pretty good batt and standby time on this Beta!
 
Anyone that has tested 11.3 beta. Does this release fix the bug of the music player widget always on the lock screen??
 
Not sure if this is 11.3 specific but WHY does the phone take me to this menu when I tap the “Enable Notifications” button within Instagram?

Also happens with the LetGo app. There’s no available setting under the Notifications menu for either of these apps so how do I turn them on?

This happened to me all throughout iOS 11 betas. You’ll need to delete the apps with the issue, then reinstall. Once you’ve done that, open the app and follow the prompts to enable notifications. The proper settings should show up at that point.
I am still experiencing it on 11.2.5 on an iPhone 7. It’s annoying. Thanks for replying.
Ah shoot, I thought that was fixed for everyone. When specifically are you seeing the music player?

The widget is constantly on the lock screen. The only exception is that it will very temporarily go away after a soft reset but reappears quickly.
 
Good day to all!

I was wondering if the BUG (SAME USAGE AND STANDBY TIMES) under battery settings has been resolved in this BETA 1 of iOS 11.3?

Thank you very much

I had it the day after installing. Just like every other time, a reboot resolved it.
