Social accounts have been removed from Settings in iOS 11. Third-party apps no longer have access to those signed-in accounts.

Any workaround for this?
This would be the only reason I wouldn't install yet since I need to test some apps with FB sign in...
 
Question: If I scan a document with Notes, can I choose to export it to iCloud Drive as a PDF? If so, do I get to choose the paper size?

Just dragged a scanned Letter sized document from Notes to the Files app and it dropped as a PDF at the scanned size. So it can be dropped. Haven’t got the spring-loading folders to work yet. I thought they mentioned ithey'd work, but I could be wrong.

Anyone yet use a boarding pass from Wallet on the lock screen? Now that you can't swipe on a notification on the lock screen, I wonder if this also affects Wallet notifications on the lock screen?

Very interesting! This makes me wonder (and sorry if this has already been asked)...since Notes now has handwriting recognition, does it have the same for typed documents that you scan (i.e. OCR?) I'd use that all the time if it does...

Just tested. Doesn’t appear to do OCR on scans yet. Boo. I’m adding a enhancement request right now for it.

Thanks very much for checking! Funny that it'll do handwriting but not typed text. :rolleyes: Go figure. I'll submit a feedback request on this too.

Do you think it may be using ARKit to detect the plane surface on which the sheet is ? It looked like they were able to take the picture from far away in the Keynote, when it was inclined at nearly 45 degrees, and very rapidly too. Scanner Pro isn't as good.

Haven’t done extensive testing yet. Once at work, where there is a lot of light, it took a second to get the scan and detect the page. (You can also adjust the page borders after scan as well).

I live in a converted church that doesn’t have overhead lighting, it asked me to move closer (The page took up three quarters of the image) to do the scan then it took about 2 seconds to verify. However, Scanner Pro asked me to move a lot closer so the page nearly filled the image, before it would scan, but scanned in less than a second. Further study is required.

I believe the Feedback app has to be manually updated on their end for iOS 11 and Apple hasn't done it for whatever reason. Maybe they're waiting for the public beta? I assume they expect you to use the web portal until then.
My best guess is that iOS 11 only appears to registered developers who used their own profiles to install iOS 11, but if any developer can clarify that'd be great.
 
I'm a registered dev and I can't even sign into the feedback app. I log in using the same ID as I use for my dev account and it just keeps saying I need to register.

Yup it’s working. The photos look the same and they go from JPEGSs that are about 9 MB down in size to about 6 MB for the new format.

Problem is compatibility which is spotty since no one else is using the format and you can’t be sure if you end up sharing the new format or a compatible version.
For example Google Photos can't synchronize photos and video and live photos taken with the new format. I think Google will update the app in September with ios11

I've been using Beta 1 since Monday night and can now report on battery life. Getting an average of 4.5-5hours everyday. This was after draining the battery completely each night on an iPhone 7. I did the OTA update.
Wow, that's pretty bad. I knew it was bad but I didn't think it was that bad!

This is the buggiest beta I have ever used. Just wow.

1. The new keyboard settings option in the keyboard switcher. When I drag up to change a keyboard I often select the keyboard settings by mistake which presents a new settings window.

2. Night Shift used to be toggable from the shortcuts menu. Now only the brightness is adjustable.

3. How is it that major APIs like audio for Skype calls get broken?

4. Or returning to Home from within all apps causes a crash-like UI transition to the Home screen. All apps including system apps have a long delay in opening. This is not something that should require code updates from devs. These are OS issues.

You'd think that a beta would have at least normal functional transitions to the home page and perform normally when opening even system apps.

Time for an iTunes restore to iOS 10. Will this automatically restore my watch to WatchOS 3? I don't mind keeping WatchOS 4 because it's stable.

If four general non-critical bugs is the "worst beta you've ever used", you mustn't have used many! Lol. The iOS7 one was leaps and bounds worse.

You cannot downgrade watchOS.
 
Ok good. I thought maybe that if you downgrade iOS that somehow WatchOS would follow. So if a developer wants to downgrade WatchOS from a beta they are SOL? Isn't that a bit odd?
Pretty much. Realistically a developer doesn’t want to downgrade unless the Watch stops turning on properly. They want to keep testing and then ultimately can upgrade to the public release in fall.

I wouldn't call not being able to open system apps without a crash or a two second delay "general". At the minimum system apps i.e. the settings app should open smoothly. I remember system apps in iOS7 and above opened fine. No Home screen crashes.

Anyway I hope there is a significant beta update this week.
