Well, just realize I've been bitten all along by the "Javascript disabled by default" decision. My website provider (Squarespace) serves many site images/assets over JS, so this default setting being off means my main header images are absent - and my menu cannot open. This is a big deal for 2 reasons:

1) The average iUser will have no clue how to enable Javascript as it's buried in Safari's settings
2) People will assume I coded a broken site, as they will for the millions of other SS sites that are now broken (among others)

Pretty pissed about this right now, as someone who is trying to maintain a portfolio and professional web presence.

There must be a way to test for JS disabled. If your test shows its disabled, put up an alert telling users "JS is Disabled on your browser, This site requires JS, click HERE for more info."

In your "more info" screen you might have links telling users how to enable JS for a wide variety of browsers and devices

That thought did cross my mind (I appreciate it), but still seems a bit hokey. In general, telling your users that a function needs to be enabled in their settings - requiring leaving the app and then refreshing the page - is still kind of poor. In that way, the problem still isn’t solved.

has anyone had the issue where you check a new text or snap chat text really fast and back out of the app and it doesnt register it as read so the badge is still there like you never read it?

Yup. It’s always been that way for me. Normal intended behavior. Gotta let the app fully load then the badge will go away.

Why does this keep happening to the icons?

I have similar issues. Don't use snap chat but happens with text. It's random too.
 
Just tested iMessage to see if the ordering had gotten any better under 11.3 ...

These were A > A. B > B. C > C. D > D etc....
Looks like it is as messed up as ever if not more so.

Some people are still experiencing this issue even now. Some others aren't, and never really had. Something tricky must be going on there.

another issue that I have seen with 11.3 is that when I read and reply to a message on my Mac for a person my iPhone will show that the message was unread even though my Mac shows that I read and replied...10 min will pass and I have to manually open the message on my iPhone to clear the badge and notification from my main screen. Anyone else seeing this?

I see this on my IPP .... It is not 100% though.

If I get a text and answer on my rMB or my 7+ the iMessage on my IPP usually shows as unread. It does not do it all the time. Why? No idea. If I answer on my IPP, it shows as read on all devices.

Same behavior for me too. It’s always the iPhone that is lagging if I answer it on my Mac

I’ve been having to reboot my iphone 7 pretty much nightly in order to get the usage and standby to reset because when I plug it in it doesn’t reset the stats. It shows the lightning bolt by the battery and charges but it doesn’t chime/vibrate and reset the stats unless I reboot. Pretty annoying new bug with iOS 11.3. Hopefully they fix this soon.

The battery timers would get reset once you are actually charged up.

I know this. But you know the message “this iPhone has been plugged in since last full charge” that usually shows up when you plug in and you aren’t up to 90% yet? That doesn’t show up and the counters don’t reset at all unless I reboot.
 
Have you tried a different charger and or cable? I wonder if there is something funky about how your charger is being sensed.

I'm on 11.4b1 now and the run time counters ALWAYS reset (and the phone chimes and vibrates) as soon as my iPhone 7 or the SE it replaced are plugged into anything including a USB port. Ditto for 11.3 and below, plus the various betas.

You say it shows the lightning bolt and it charges.... do you know approximately how fast it charges? Does that seem normal?

Yeah tried different cables and chargers. I believe it’s a software issue since it didn’t start until iOS 11.3. It charges fine. Like I said. I reboot and then all is fine till the end of the day when I go to plug in before bed. I do also have a smart battery case so I’m not sure if that might have something to do with it. But I’ve tried with and without and same behavior.
