Some people simply can't resist, and others enjoy the testing process. Either way, you should be grateful that there are many of us who do beta test. We enable people who wait for official release to have a smoother experience.

You must have missed the earlier conversations from dan9700. This response was in jest regarding all those posts from his urging folks to stay away from iOS 11.

Has the clock at the top of the widgets page to the left of the home screen disappeared for anyone else?

Yep on iPad it has, unless you open notifications first then swipe over.

How could this possibly a negative? Or are you guys just uncomfortable with your masculinity?

I think you misunderstood. My statement wasn't meant to be negative. Was simply stating that political correctness was likely the reason, as we all know Apple is very concerned about equal rights.

Personally, it's an icon. I really don't care what the picture looks like, or whether it's a guy, a girl, a hermaphrodite or a llama in the picture. It's called Contacts. I know what it is used for.

Other than music everything works and syncs okay?

Yes and no. There are quite some times when notifications will show up on both phone and watch. Sometimes it takes long for activity data to show up.

It’s ok but not perfect (yet).
I’m running Pb 2, mind you.

Ps: and quite often the Watch doesn’t have connection to the phone, resulting in Siri-queries not being processed.

Anyone else seeing massive battery drain by Photos background activity? Not just in this beta but also the last one. It’s using up more than half my battery, with something like 7 hours in the background by the end of the day. I’ve restored from a backup, turned iCloud off and back on, and updated to the new beta but nothing will stop it

I don't know that I'll be upgrading to iOS 11 even when the GM version is released. The speed and stability of 10.3.3 is worth more to me than the new features of iOS 11.

I did have massive battery drain last beta but it seems to be resolved in Beta 4

Anyone having any problems using Apple Watch OS 3.2.3 with iOS 11 betas?

The only problem I am having is that the Music app does not work properly. Now not display "Now Playing" and controls do nothing. I just use Now Playing instead.

For me, until now, I finally get notifications for mails redirected to a sub folder in inbox folder. Before that, all the time from iOS 9 to iOS 10, I did not receive any.

Was the sub folder configured as a favorite folder or did the notifications appeared even when it was not a favorited folder.
Did this behaviour start from beta 4 or beta 3?

Also can you check for any other folder configured as favorited folder?
Thanks.

Those folders are not configured as favorite folders. This behavior starts from beta 3 in my case. Does not receive a bunch of emails recently so cannot test much.
I don’t have any folder configured as favorite. I just allow all accounts to send push notifications.
 
So now that it has been a day, battery life is good? Does the phone act like a fireball on the top right corner? Should I go to beta 4 from 10.3.3?

Not so hot anymore but performance is still a bit worse than it should be.

On the iPhone 7 plus?
