Hopefully they’ll restore Facebook also. I haven’t had that battery draining app installed in years.

Yes, that's part of it! (Thanks, Apple.). The other thing I'm interested in is if you can disable Control Center when the device is locked rather than disabling access from the lock screen.
There’s a new default setting in iOS 11 for all notification previews to be hidden until you unlock your phone. That’s how most of my apps are set now.
Clearly you do not understand what a "bug" is. A bug is an error, flaw, failure or fault in a computer program or system that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result, or to behave in unintended ways, caused by an error in coding or logic.
This is NOT a bug. It's a design choice... it may not be a good design choice, but the NO VOLUME icon instead of a ZERO is NOT a bug...
Clearly you do not understand what a "bug" is. It is a bug, because the brightness slider goes all the way to the bottom and disappears when it's at minimum. This is a design inconsistency, and therefore can be classified as a bug if it's not intended. If you implement 2 sliders that go to 0 and one doesn't, that's a bug, isn't it?
[doublepost=1496893281][/doublepost]Anyone noticing that Hey Siri makes the device heat up significantly?
This is what I’m getting. It looks like Twitter may have to update to post from the app rather than the settings? Idk.

Actually yes. A few seconds after I used it, I could feel it heating up. Strange.
Both sliders go down to 0. The bug is that the mute icon is shown before the slider goes all the way down to zero.
[doublepost=1496896725][/doublepost]Has anyone found a way to disable the persistent blue bar blinking to inform me which applications are using my location in the background? Thanks for looking out for me Apple, but I already know they do because I gave them permission to do so in the first place. An icon is sufficient please.
The icon isn’t the problem - the problem is that the icon is showing no volume when the slider isn’t all the way down. So yes, it’s a bug.
Just to make this clear for everyone: the problem is that the icon is showing MUTE, when the volume is still not muted.
I truncate your reply so it looks better and more logical.
And that IS a bug because no one expects that happen, and it was never designed in that way. Also, even though the icon shows "muted", I still can listen to music. This will confuse people, and "produce an incorrect or unexpected result".
Bug is not an IT-only word, although it is used most frequently in IT industry.
I have an iPhone 5s. I remember when i installed iOS 10 beta 1 on my 5S its almost the same to the stable iOS 9.3.5. But iOS 11 beta 1 is horrible and makes my iPhone 5s slow like a turtle! My iPhone 5s really suffers, overheats a lot, and even some light apps and games crashes more often, even iOS 10 is not for 5S though. I cant imagine even the official release of iOS 11 this fall would react on my iPhone since they will still add more and more features to make oldest phone like 5s slow
My advice, just stay at iOS 10.3.2.
Yeah the Twitter option there is still trying to get the non-existent Twitter account from Settings.
[doublepost=1496899098][/doublepost]
Exactly my point. It is a bug.
[doublepost=1496899177][/doublepost]Noticed that in some games, audio stops working completely after the games are put in the background. Definitely not intended behavior as it worked correctly in iOS 10.3.3.
I know, I was just clarifying for the people who misread what you were originally saying.
You can share using Facebook if the app is installed.

If you tap OK it will let you share anyway.
Like most dev beta 1's this is rough around the edges. I installed it on my iPhone 7 Plus and my iPad Pro 9,7-inch (will get replaced by the new 12,9-inch next week) and there are a lot of small glitches everywhere.
The one most major one for me thus far is that my bus ticketing app is not able to download it's verification image, so I can't access the commute I use everyday. I have temporarily solved this by having a secondary phone with the ticketing app for the time being.
I've had 2-3 spring load crashes/reboots the first day of use, and one occasion where the phone did a forced reboot. Everything do seem to work decently when using the phone. The loss of ad-blocking in Safari is rather irritating, I haven't missed those ads to say the least and I have been custom to a ad-free browsing experience on my phone for a long time so it feels awkward to have them back.
Other than that and some inconsistent display brightness the biggest issue I have is Apple Music. Apple Music seems to completely demolish my battery. After 1 hour of listening to music on my commute yesterday my phone to really hot and the battery almost as fast as I could see the battery percentage go down by the minute.
I haven't used the iPad all that much. But I noticed that the standard playback option in ProTube doesn't seem to work. So you are forced into the "alternative" mode. And trying to use the official YouTube-app is a no-go as the search bar is missing.
The App Store on both devices is acting really awkward. You have to smash those "Update" buttons a thousand times and prey to the heavens for the apps to actually start updating.

When you set it to "Automatic" it fetches new emails "in the background only when on power and WiFi". It's not related to Push as far as I can tell, only Fetch. If your email provider supports Push then it should be listed when you go into that account.
For example, when I go into Accounts, I've set the default "Fetch New Data" to "Push". I really wish they didn't use the word Fetch there, but they did
. When I drill down into those settings, Push is enabled and my email accounts are listed below. For iCloud, which supports Push, the options are Push, Fetch, Manual. For my other account, which doesn't, I only get the options "Fetch" and Manual". I'm not sure how it knows that Push isn't available, especially as in iCloud under Push it says that Fetch will be used if Push isn't available.I think this area could do with tidying up!
If you ask siri something and she presents a link. Example: ask about pics of giraffes, touch one of the giraffes that she shows and voila
Add twitter account credentials under Accounts & Passwords > App & website passwords. That worked for me.

I'm having some 'issue' with my Smart Battery Case too. It's actually a strange thing: at some point both the phone AND case start dropping (so not immediately). Only the case should be dropping first hand, then the phone should follow.
It's nothing too bad fortunately. And obviously, it was too be expected with a beta of a major iOS release. Same thing happened too the iPhone 6s smart battery case when using iOS 10 beta, although it was a little different in how it drained compared to now. I remember them taking at least a few betas before it got fully fixed.
As long as everything in general works I'm fine. I've been on the beta trail long enough to know what to expect, and what any possible consequences are. I think it runs fairly well for a first beta. It's a tad slower, battery life has decreased and there's some springboard crashes here and there. But nothing I can't handle.
