So how are people finding this then after a day of use?

beta 4 works better .. except for some problems in the photo app regarding cropping while taking a screenshot. other than that its very close to IOS 10.3.3 performance and battery life. I will say suitable for daily driver...

I just wanted to start sending some bug reports through the Feedback app, but it seems I can’t choose the build I’m currently running (DB 4) in the app?

Anyone else have the same problem?

Yes. The feedback app should include the new build when PB3 is released. The feedback app is primarily for public beta users.

I have tried betas 1, 2 and now 4 and they all have the same issue in Messages. When writing or receiving long texts, the last line or two is often cut off. I just installed beta 4 30 minutes ago and already have this issue again. This time it was my own text, that got cut off. If I turn my 7+ in landscape mode I can see 1-2 more words, but still not all.

For some reason I haven't seen anyone else mention this. Wonder what is going on?

Are you using bold text? This used to happen to me when I had bold text enabled.

All the PBs resulted in soft resprings/restarts for me. How is PB4?

encountered it in beta 3.. so far in beta 4 nope.

 

[ddublu]

I’m so ready for the PB release, especially after the updates I’ve been reading. PB2 has been pretty rough, in my opinion.

I've had the same issue (but still waiting for public beta today). It does seem as thought the full text does go through though. The bubble just custs the message off after 4 or 5 lines of text.

Volume limit finally works with the AirPods!

 

[macintoshmac]

Anyone have the issue in messages when you are typing to send a message and hit send, then swipe right to go back to the main thread, the contact you were messaging at the top line grays out and you can not click on it again? Have to open another contact thread before you can go back in?

Existed in beta 3 as well, most likely beta 2 as well, and maybe, just maybe, also in 1.

Did beta 4 fix the unable to downloading App from the App store issues?

I filed a bug on this and it was closed as a duplicate. So they know....

I swear the contacts app icon change was solely made to add a female silhouette as well as the male one.

How do I download the regular non-public beta? Is it potentially bad to do so?

That's right

 

[jhall8]

You would need to have a developer account. But PB3 may be released today or tomorrow. Only you can decide which program is best for you. Dev account costs 99.00 USD per year.

Also, I am so annoyed they removed the ability to long press notifications on non-3D Touch devices.

The long press to open notifications was one of my favourite iOS 11 features, and I always was always kind of paranoid that Apple was going to realise how stupid it was to put one of the best 3D-Touch features onto non 3D Touch devices. It was honestly the first thing I checked every beta and now it’s gone

Seems to work rather well so far... It's hard to say about the battery, but it has improved billion times in Beta 2, and then a little more in Beta 3.
The real test will be if it hangs or crashes as much as in Beta 3.

Landscape keyboard still has a lot of padding on the left and right on my iPhone 6s. It's not much larger than portrait keyboard since Beta 1... At least I reported it and someone reported it faster than me.

 

[malikkamran]

is anyone else finding incredible battery life I played youtube for 1 hour and it lost like 5 percent iPhone 6S

 

[Smurphy Gherkin]

After 12 hours... Started on public beta 2 and went to beta 4 and it has been a big improvement, much more than I was expecting. Still the odd glitch but much snappier and resolved at least 3/4 of the stuff I had problems with.

Happy to use as daily driver on iPhone 7+
