Not as bad IMHO. But, there's a new issue I'm experiencing with the App Switcher, noted in the Wiki - some dismissed apps are not dismissed, they persist, and I've seen them jump upward or to the left. iPhone only (I'm using iP6S and iP6S+), iPads seem to not have this persistence issue. Restarts and resets don't "fix" this - only has affected Apple apps only and not 3rd-party apps so far.
I might have this wrong here and if someone is on beta 1 perhaps they can check but the behavior of the "dominant app" in split view seems to have changed.
If you put an app into split view the app on the right is always the one with the drag down handle at the top, unless it's resized into 3/4 size. In 50/50 and 1/4 that app always becomes the secondary app. If I'm not wrong (and I might be!) then the handle stayed on whatever app you brought in as the secondary, regardless of sizing.
Like I said, might be off mark on this one.

Mine caused my phone to lockup a quick reset later and it came up with the install now button and its just come back on from the update.
Alright, let’s see what apps are broken and how battery life has further tanked. Beta 2 is fun.

I had that too, until I discovered that 5GHz wifi not working, had to switch to 2.4GHz. Anyone else having wifi issues?
It was working for me before in b1 but now says "Synced: never" and if I try to switch it off and on again I get a repeating notification saying "Message failed to send. 501 days ago". After 5 minutes of it I decided just to disable sync for now.
On the upside, and entirely related, Feedback Assistant looks like it's working
Here in the uk if I go to the currys website and select an item then go to the voucher box safari will not let me open those boxes to enter a discount code on iOS 11
This beta is way faster than Beta 1. I can actually use it now. I had Beta 1 for a few days and couldn’t deal with how unstable it was. I could see this being PB1 next week. Or maybe tomorrow?

Is your watch running WatchOS4 beta 1? Try reinstalling the autoconfig profile
It is new. It was never there before. However it still exists in Phone.app's settings as well.
