iOS 11 Beta 2: Changes, Bug Fixes, Enhancements, etc.

A reset fixed it, but I had a problem with the app switcher. I kept swiping apps closed, but they kept reappearing.

I remember the good ol days when I used to get 8+ hours on my 7 plus when it first came out. Miss those days ☹️

The battery life on my 7+ has never been as good as my old 6+.

It’s a dp2 issue. Multiple people have reported it in the thread.

With my Smart Invert on, on my iPad Pro 9.7, everything just lags too much and hangs. Works smooth on the normal mode though.

Anyone lose their Apple Pay? Mine missing, no option to add card details under Wallet.app

Potential workaround for those experiencing issues closing apps: Try returning to the home screen first, before opening the app switcher to close said app(s). Takes some getting used to but it’s worked for me most of the time.

Huge improvement over beta 1. Everything is much smoother.

Today after I updated I docked my iPad Pro gen 1 on my Logi Dock and I got a notification to update the dock through the smart connector.

Pretty neat.

My cards are still there and I deleted one and added it back in and looks like it’s fine. I haven’t used it yet though so not sure if it’s working.

I had a glitch in the message app where new message even when read still showed unread.

So I have just updated my iPhone 6+ to ios11 beta 2 and for some reason a number of my apps are showing up as grey icons with a little cloud icon next to the name. Only issue is I am unable to download the apps because for some reason its not connecting to the app store.

Seems to be ok now. Just need to click on the apps. After sometime they will download.

Is it me or did the speed of this build double from the first. Beta 1 wasn’t bad but as soon as my phone restarted things open super fast.

It seems all the "Personal Hotspot style" blue colored bar that appears at anytime where third party apps attempt location service is all gone for good (was a bit of a problem during Beta 1)

Anyone still sees it?

Animations are much faster/smoother compared to beta 1.

Beta 2 much more buggy than beta 1 for me

Name apps in dock don´t show in this beta still.

The DND while driving feature is pretty handy. Just tried it out earlier with the setting to Automatic.

When started to drive it turned on and when waiting at the traffic lights, I saw the DND icon at the status bar. Once I reached home, left the phone on the table and when came back few minutes later to check, the icon was gone. Pretty Cool!

It’s not suppose to.

Hello,

I am unable to download titles, other family members downloaded with family sharing. There seems to be no option

Is the GPS icon supposed to be always on? I noticed that there's the hollow icon on the status bar every time I turned on my phone.

Also, is anyone using the Apple smart battery case or any other 3rd party batter cases? Is the phone charging correctly? The phone is supposed to be charged until 95% then switch to charging the case until full, then switch back to charge the phone until full. Noticed that once the case is full charged, then the charging stops and the phone starts draining its battery.

The control centre widget doesn’t just say IPHONE music, it displays whatever you last listened too

Sorry if it was already answered but can somebody tell me how I can open an app directly from a notification? In iOS 10 and before you could swipe it to the right, but that doesn’t work anymore.

Unlock the device while staying on the Cover Sheet and tap the notification. Or, 3D touch on the notification and then tap its body again. Authenticate and it will send you in.
