T-Mobile WiFi calling stopped working for me, just this morning, before I even updated to 11.3. After the update, it's still broken.

its like that for a while on my 6s+ now. Being able to have multi apps or safari tabs open was one of the main reason I bough my 6s+ back on the day, and now, apps keeps reloading the moment I use another app for more than 5 minutes.

New bug iOS 11.3:

Step 1 open any app..

Step 2: go back to the home screen and open a folder ( not being the one which has the app in step 1)

Step 3: via multitasking open the app running from step 1

Step 4: kill the app after it runs.
(do not kill directly from the multitasker. First let the app run again, and then kill it with multitasking again)

You will notice a glitch, and a bug, where the folder opened in step 2 is not there and you’re returned to the home screen, but the animations have an effect of a bug/glitch.

Note: no other app should be running in the background when you follow the steps..


Note 2: will also work if in step 4 you return back to the home screen and don’t kill the app. However, the animation is normal in this case, and there’s no bug or glitch effect.

Note 3: why doesn’t macrumors allow me to upload a screen recording video from my iPhone.
 
But have they fixed the iPad Pro issue where the keyboard connector on the side stopped working?
 
So messages in iCloud seems to be live. It’s just not a toggle anymore. Check your iCloud settings and check manage storage. It’s on by default.

Maybe, but earlier I deleted a conversation on my iphone with the official 11.3 release, and it didn't delete on my ipad who are still on ios 11.3 beta 6...

I really wonder if it's more iOS or Facebook's app.

Don't seem to have that in my iCloud storage settings.
 
Bug?
iPad Pro 12.0 G2 with attached Apple Smart Keyboard.
The keyboard left / right arrows work fine.
The up down arrows take you to the bottom of the page.
That is for this site and another forum I belong to when making an entry.
 
First off.. my iPhone X feels like a different phone. Everything is noticeably smoother!
Second. How is apps auto update suppose to work? For me it seems like it never works even though I have it turned on.

11.3 changed WiFi calling to cellular preferred, so it won’t work unless you have a weak signal now (similar to how VZW and AT&T have always worked). This is definitely a welcome change for me, no more dropped calls when connected to overloaded WiFi AP’s at work while full cellular signal is displayed on the phone.

And for users who don’t have 2FA, it just disappears? Does that mean I don’t have any option to enable or disable, and it comes along with the enable of 2FA?
 
iMessages in the cloud does seem to partially be there. I installed and did a restore all settings, launched messages and it prompted me to repair my messages in the cloud account at the very bottom. Signed in and ultimately failed and just hung
 
Hi, did a DFU restore yesterday using iTunes on my iphone 7 to get a fresh 11.3. Visual voicemail does not work on EE in the UK. Anyone else have this issue? Yesterday I turned the visual voicemail off and then on (received text from EE it is on), and today, not working...
 
Got some iMessages this morning. One did not appear on my lockscreen. And with the last one I received, my notification sound hang, again. I had this on 11.2.6 also. Before 11.2.6? Not sure.

My watch Series 0 is still shown with watchOS 4.2.3 in the Apple ID section. How can I fix that, without canceling my watch from my Apple ID? Thank you! Edit: It shows watch OS 4.3 now!

Probably leftover data from your beta period.

But I‘m sure it‘s there, just hidden. I‘ve heard Apple employees have it so it‘s probably like Apple Pay Cash, requires a server switch to be pushed live once they feel comfortable with it.

Never had the beta and installed the update on all devices. iCloud now shows about 4,7GB of data in "Messages". No switch, no options. Something is going on in the background.

Not a leftover. I see the same and never use betas.
 
Should i switch from beta 6 to the final version? Battery life on beta 6 is really really good,
but I am scared to update :eek:
iPhone 7
 
I still have a random issue with Safari launching a blank web page, instead of the last web page visited. Seems to happen when I close Safari in App Switcher and relaunch at a later time. iPad Pro 10.5

I just saw it on my mom‘s iPad and she never used any betas. I guess either it‘s fully automated in the background or it‘s part of the default iCloud backup (makes sense, your messages are restored with iCloud backups).

I can‘t find any mention of Messages on my iPhone though so maybe it is iMessage in iCloud (I check tomorrow when my phone backed up via iCloud).
