So you will never update iOS again?
I haven’t seen these horrible battery issues people complain about, so I don’t really have a good frame of reference I guess.
Fair enough.
I’ve upgraded every release that’s come out (and will occasionally run beta versions) and haven’t regretted it yet.
Waiting until at least the next beta of 11.3, though before jumping into the 11.3 cycle.
I doubt it... But I reallyyy hope that all of this news about iOS 12 having less features to focus on stability/quality means X.3 version level of stability on the X.0 version. Or at least a lot better than we usually get.
I have 6 WiFi devices. 4 Apple devices on 5GHz and 2 TVs on 2.4GHz.
If I change 5GHz WiFi channel, all devices reconnect automatically after the change. I’ve noticed my iPad Pro 10.5 sometimes sometimes doesn’t. I’ll get a popup that says “unable to join/network incorrect password”. If I try to manually enter the password, it says “incorrect password”. If I wait a minute or two, and head over to WiFi setting it then reconnects. This doesn’t happen with the 7 Plus, 6 Plus, iPad Air 2 and the 2 TVs. I reported it.

Stop the photo scanning.
I have 1700+ photos on iPhone 8 and every time I install a new beta it has to scan all the photos and places the same 8 people I don't want in the "People Album". I remove them and use the ones I want.
Next beta install, the same thing happens.
After I set the ones I want in the album, they stay until I plug my phone in to charge. After charging, the phone has scanned all the pictures again and the same 8 photos I don't want are back in the people album. Photos I set in the album are gone.
Just stop the scanning and do it manually. Maybe like IOS 10?

Wifi keeps on dying on my old iPhone 6 yet it works without an issue on my iPhone 7 Plus, iPad Air 2 and iPad Pro 10.5 like it shows connected to wifi but every few minutes it stops loading anything so i have to disable wifi for a second from the control center and then it works again for a few minutes before the same thing happens all over again. Seems like it is losing the IP or something
Have you tried a static IP? Maybe there’s another device that interferes and eventually causes IP problems. I don’t have WiFi issues on my 6+.
So your have your iphone 6 in the 11.3 beta 2? How's it run otherwise? Faster and better than 11.2.5?
So many phone call related issues where phone just rings forever and nothing shows on even till like R rings.
Super slow os
Can't wait to get all these bug fixes

Bigger issue on macOS, but pages not loading or crashing/reloading has been more pronounced on these betas.
i'm having the exact same problem since beta 1 I've reported it on the last 2 betas. hopefully its fixed on beta 3
Is anyone else having an issue with the gps while on LTE? Ever since updating to beta 2, my iPhone X cannot find my location when using any GPS app. It shows a big blue circle surround 15-20 blocks where it estimates where I am and is completely off. This only happens when on LTE. When I connect to a WiFi network it finds my location instantly.
I didn’t have this issue with beta 1.

Sorry I didn’t take a second screenshot. But there was about an hour or so of music in that one. I’m mainly using safari, YouTube and Facebook
[doublepost=1519026345][/doublepost]To give an idea this is over the last 7 days usage. As you can see the music usage averages about an hour a day over 7 days. Just during the drive to work and back.
[doublepost=1519026484][/doublepost]The one concern I have and I hope it’s just the inaccuracy of the beta, but since installing this beta I’ve gone from 99% to 97% battery health. That’s a bit scary for less than 2 weeks

I miss it on my SE, which I kept specifically to retain access to my 32bit apps.
So I'm a some people.
