Two factor authentication enabled on your account?

Yup. That fixed it, thank you!

Actually that wasn't it. Hmm weird. When I went into messages first after the install it took me through setting up messages in iCloud. But when I go into settings, it's simply not there.

A few others have reported this on here. Other than turning your phone off and on again or sign out of iCloud, turn the phone off, turn the phone on again and sign back in and see what that does. Might be worth reporting it to Apple.

Tried turning it off then on. I'll trying signing in then out and if that doesn't work I'll report it. Thanks so much!

Good morning.

Updated to 11.3 beta 3 yesterday on my iPhone X & the one thing I notice is that iMessage Sync in iCloud keeps switching itself back on.

Once updated I noticed was switched on by default. I turned this off.

I noticed yesterday on a couple of occasions that this was switched back on when I checked in iCloud settings with regards to something else.

I switched phone off & then back on again this morning & noticed iMessage in iCloud had switched back on again. So seems to do this whether phone booted off/on or not.

Am I missing something or is this a bug ?

Cheers

There isn’t a switch in Messages settings. It’s under iCloud settings.

According to all documentation I can find, the toggle should be in settings > messages. I checked my iCloud storage, there are no messages stored there.

That documentation is not representative of this beta. There is no switch there. If you simply go to iCloud (not iCloud storage), there should be a toggle for Messages. It may take time for the Messages to show up in your iCloud storage.

Sorry my mistake....I assumed you meant you were looking in the iCloud section in Settings. @Chazzle is right...that’s where the switch should be once TFA is enabled on your account.

Has anyone else been having issues with the touchscreen sporadically becoming unresponsive? On my iPad 12.9 2nd gen the touchscreen will randomly stop working, and it can take several seconds for it to start registering input again. This has persisted over all 3 betas and a complete restore, and I haven't seen anyone else report this.

I’m getting that more and more on my 12.9 2017, beta 11.3. Also some intermittent keyboard and random touch/press harder situations. I get it to stop by closing the iPad and opening again. I do resets but problem returns soon.

Now on beta 4 still no indication that messages in iCloud is working. My iCloud space still does not indicate any space being used for messages.

Something is disabling the Limit ad tracking option in preferences?

You are not alone, please reoprt the bug as this will help fix it.
