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

[H3LL5P4WN]

iOS:
When I attempt to share anything via the Share Sheet to Twitter, it says:

No Twitter Account
There are no Twitter accounts configured. You can add or create a Twitter account in Settings.

Yet as we know, Facebook and Twitter etc. were removed from settings in that capacity. And yes, I have the official Twitter app installed, configured, and am able to use it fine. Sharing to Facebook works fine.

Camera app:
The phone still gets fairly warm when attempting to take pictures, still.

Maps:
Maps only crashed once today. And while it did give me travel times to work this morning, it listed the only business that's listed on Maps in my building, instead of the brown Work icon (that I setup in Maps originally). The Home icon shows fine.

I can't seem to dismiss notifications from the lock screen, such as an iMessage. If I open the message it will go away, otherwise it seems to stay there. Has anyone experienced the same thing?

Another way is by hard pressing it (or a long press if you're on a device without 3D Touch), then you can simply touch the X button to dismiss it. Not the best thing in the world, but it's a good workaround for now. Hope Apple fixes it soon.

I'm only running it on a 6s at the moment and it's running very nicely- better than b1. Waiting for the public beta before reinstalling on my iPP.

Once thing I've noticed which might be new- when you search for a contact using spotlight, it now shows if the contact has whatsapp video chat with the camera icon. I've only ever seen this with FaceTime in the past. I'm assuming FT would still trump anything else, though.

Just noticed that the iPad Keyboard now also have this cursor drag feature, like the iPhone with 3D Touch(hard press), just with 2 finger long press.

This was introduced in iOS 9 or 10 I believe.

Works for me.

No it doesn’t the apps are old compare to someone’s else iPhone the new games haven’t been updated on iOS App Store might say today’s date but same old apps from 2 weeeks ago

Can anyone confirm if they are having this problem with YouTube / Airplay. If you try to AirPlay a video to your AppleTV and then hit the home button and go to another app, does your video that was being Airplayed to the AppleTV stop? Btw, I have YouTube Red so this is a working feature in iOS 10.

Side note, really dislike the new standard video player in Safari etc. Controls are way too small.

I’m sure it’s been mentioned, but I like that people are pulling into the AM search.

Do Not Disturb while Driving wouldn’t even let me into my phone unless I tap “I’m not driving” after pressing Home.

The new App Store hasn’t been updated since WWDC, I think Apple doesn’t want to update it yet until they’ve got the bugs sorted out.

Apparently you can turn off recently used apps in the dock on iPad.

Anyone else having an issue with Apple Maps. I can search for an address and it will give me the directions but I am unable to select GO on any of the routes that come up.

Works for me

Using SwiftKey keyboard in regular messages app is very laggy and jittery. Not sure if it applies to Apple keyboard as well. It works fine in all my other apps from what I can tell.

iphone 7+

Anyone else having issues??

Using Gboard, google’s keyboard iMessage is also laggy when swiping. I went back to using the stock keyboard for the time being

I had the same issue with the Word Flow keyboard (which I think is brilliant, by the way) but so far it's been fine since a restore, which I had to do to fix a different problem.

Edit: A day later and ... it's laggy again.

Can you please share your wallpaper?

Does this mean you can have 8+ apps in the iPad dock?

iMessages in iCloud requires two factor authentication to be enabled.

Yeah, I have it on...odd

Can anyone comment on battery life. How is battery life compared to previous beta.

I'm actually finding it worse so far. Beta 1 was surprisingly good/solid for me in terms of battery life. SE here.

So it's a lot more like the macOS Dock? Do you mind posting a screenshot of what it looks like? Please?
