iOS 11 Beta 1: Changes, Bug Fixes, Enhancements, etc.

The new unlock animation is boring.

Yeah, hope they change it.

The only consistent issue that I’m really having is 3D touching an icon is very laggy. It’s not a complaint, just an observation. Aside from that it’s been pretty smooth on my 7 plus, at least for a first beta,

New volume overlay.

Can someone test the audio message feature in the iMessage app and see if the quality is still super terrible?

Confirm: Super terrible since YEARS.

I read that the home screen has gone from the app switcher on iPhone. Is this true?

I've got myself into the habit of 3D Touching on the left of the screen to get into the app switcher and then going to the home screen to get out of an app. Can you not do this anymore?

SUPPORT FOR GIF!!!!!!!!!!!

In Settings > General > down in the bottom there is a shut down button which invokes the Slide to power off screen

Hope someone in apple finds that adding a PIN or fingerprint confirmation for shutdown is a major advance in security when your iphone is stolen and needs Find my iphone

Scrolling has changed in Safari to match the rest of iOS and...

CONTROL CENTER IS CUSTOMIZABLE!!!!

It’s also ugly AF!

Yes, here too.
But Voice Memos are so clear!

Not sure if this has been posted yet but the background behind passes in Wallet is now white with the word "Wallet" in the iOS10 music style at the top.

Completely useless, because you can still shut a phone off with home(or volume down) and the power button

New option to uninstall an app while preserving documents and settings instead of deleting everything at once.
Saw this on Weibo so not sure about the English naming of this option.

I am 100% sure that Control Center is going to be redesigned. Right now it looks like something from 2007.

Worst part is that this idiotic volume and brightness bar is right where i would swipe to pull down the control center so i keep pulling on those bars by mistake

I thought so watching the keynote, but in real life usage I actually like how it looks.

It’s called “offloading”.

 

[robertkarlsen]

couldn't we at least get the new dock-look?

Cheap bastards

 

[sbailey4]

Wondering when public beta will be released?

when its ready

Or at the end of June like they said in the keynote.

Turning off iMessage apps does not work. Every time you toggle them off, they just toggle themselves back on.

Apple should make antivirus solutions. No way a virus/ hacker can switch anything off because it will just switch back on automagically.

I imagine with the new photos features etc that some of the lag we're seeing may also be the result of re-indexing and photo/spotlight analysis.

On the iPad it's going to take some getting used to. I'm having to swipe up for a long swipe or do this twice to simple play with brightness etc. Switching between apps seems less intuitive now. I've yet to update my iPhone though. Probably works better there.

 

[adham7897]

Adjusting the flashlight brightness is now possible on devices without 3D Touch.

 

[jon8214]

Let me know how you get on.

didn't go well I've had to restore to ios10 as it kept crashing doing the restore

I have iOS 11 loaded on my iPP now and that's where I think it's good. Updating my 6S soon but looking forward to the change their too now, given how I like it on the iPP.
