My Music app never remembers which song I was listening to. When I go back in the app after having the song on Pause for a while, it just shows Not Playing. This is a little annoying.

Which device are you on?

I have seen this from the very first beta's of iOS 11: I think it's very annoying. I have a certain playlist I play in the car. Everytime I had to search again in that list where I was before, because at the end of the day it does what you describe.

This is one of the reasons I have stayed on iOS 10: it forgets where exactly in the song I was, but at least remembers where I was in the playlist. This way I can get in my car and get along with music. Otherwise:
1. no song plays
2. random song on phone starts playing.

I have an iPhone 6 btw, I blamed it on the 1 GB memory. Curious what device you have?
Edit: I see also iPhone X owners seem to have this. I presume this is absent then in 11.2.5
 
Anyone have any issues with auto-lock? My iPhone X does not auto lock. I have it set to 30 seconds and the screen remains on. Anyone else?

Anyone having issues with wireless charging on beta 2?
I use the Mophie charger and since the update the light often blinks instead of remaining solid during charging and after 3 full nights of charging, each morning I'm only at 85-95% instead of 100%, where it always was prior to beta 2 update.

I'm not running the beta, but I had the same issue with my Mophie charger. Turns our the charger was defective. After swapping it with a new one, the problem was solved.

No issue here, to redeem apps, you can just redeem it at the App Store by launching it, tap on your iCloud profile photo on the upper right, “redeem gift card or code” and enter app code

Does anyone know how to fix the bug when new audiobooks, which were synced through iTunes, do not load at all? They just display the spinning circle forever... The ones that I previously listened too still work.

Chrome is my browser of choice. Since updating to iOS 11.3b2 I consistently get “Aw, snap. Something went wrong” in certain pages after about 30 seconds of reading them.
 
Has anyone had problems with iMessages showing in the wrong order? If I am texting someone their reply to my text goes before my initial text message.

As has been mentioned. Tap to Wake is iPhone X only and is in the accessibility settings.

This seems to work here on my X, sporadically. It usually remembers the song and exact playback progress BUT seems to kill my active playlist queue. I listen to a playlist of around 20 songs at work, after a few hours (or a day later) only 10 (or less) are still queued up and I have to toggle shuffle off/on to pull the remaining songs in. This is incredibly annoying, especially when I‘m driving and I notice the queue shrinking down to a handful of songs... but my phone isn‘t in reach and hey siri doesn‘t work through cloth (carplay requires wired connection).

This is a long-shot but....ever since the first 11.3 beta my Mail app has stopped fetching emails. If I delete it and set it up again, it will work for an hour or so and fetch messages, but it then stops. I'm now using the Outlook app as well, and that's working perfectly.
My email service is BT Mail in the UK - @btinternet.com - which uses Yahoo.
I've tried setting up the account as Yahoo and as Other, but both stop working after a bit.
I've reported it on Beta Feedback but I have a feeling it may not be caused by the beta and could be some sort of Yahoo problem.
If anyone's found the same problem and has solved it, I'd love to know.

Been having a lot more safari issues with this beta (as well as the macOS beta).

Safari seems...sticky? I don’t know, a lot of actions feel a little bogged down. For example, clicking a favorites icon used to fade the screen immediately and begin loading; now, it takes a couple of seconds. Seem to be getting more failed loads too.
