Planned obsolescence? lol Have you tried force close all apps from the app switcher and soft reset to clear RAM then relaunch apps or reboot device?

Yes, and while the phone is faster the freeze eventually happens. I haven’t been able to pin down the reason. Sometimes it’s just opening and app and closing it because the app didn’t open appropriately.

I’m not a fan of the planned obsolescence party, but honestly this is making me wonder if they are doing this on purpose. Can’t imagine why this happens besides a ram not powerful enough and they don’t optimizing iOS for less than 2gb. Anyway hope this is sort out by gm time.
 
I have a nasty UI desync issue. The, for example, lock screen music controls + CC portions stop working. They show up with no album art and the play button doesn‘t work either even though I am currently listening to music.

Also, the volume controls in the CC desync a lot. I change the volume in the music app but the CC slider remains the same. This is pretty annoying and was not present in the last few betas.

Other than that performance is pretty good. I do encounter hard locks quite a bit though (every hard button stops responding and the touch screen is incredibly delayed or non functional until it executes all button presses at once).

I don't know if its a new bug or not, but if you record a voice memo and you send it to a friend via MMS. the voice message will be the same as the prior message if the file have the same name but you only notice this on the message app, not voice memo app.

I don't know if its clear, but its the best I can describe this,
 
I cannot get Handoff to work between my iphone 7 plus and iPad pro 10.5 both of which are running the latest PB11. The option shows up on y iPad to do handoff and when you select it its it says opening webpage from handoff but never does. Anyone know a fix for this?
 
Isn’t there supposed to be a dark bar at the top of the screen when you scroll on the widget screen. Mine is clear and makes the scroll look sloppy.

Mine blurs the entire top and look nice imo. I’ve had issues though with the blur effect elsewhere, so it’s probably just a bug.

I had to restore from the public beta 5 to iOS 10 due to crashes every 5 minutes. First the app froze for a couple of minutes, then it turns black with a spinning dashed circle, eventually I can unlock and start using it again. Then the cycle begins again.

iPhone 6s 64GB.

I guess I'll just wait for the GM or 11.1.
I didn't like the new App Store though. It's way harder to explore and find something useful.
 
Anyone here using any playstation apps? I can't log in on two of them, the capcha screen is broken. Also can't use facebook to log in to play zynga poker.
 
Most annoying bug in iMessage still exists from all the way back to iOS 9.?

When i select multiple photos from a conversation and delete them, go back into it, there r still some left even tho i deleted them. Random number of pics i have to delete at least twice in each convo.

I don’t think this is a beta 6 thing, but I’m so glad they changed the echo iMessage effect back to blue. That orange was UGLY

Anyone else with same usage and standby times? Phone (iPhone 7) has been on the table for two hours at least. Didn’t occur in previous beta. Don’t know but I fancy this isn’t quite affecting battery life in that way.

Also, it shows Hike background activity when I haven’t even opened the app in days and background app refresh is off for it. Same with WhatsApp. :)

Anyone having issues with photos taken on phone and not being uploaded to photo stream (i.e. other macs, iCloud.com and shared photos)?

Scary, Same device here and no issues. I finally decided to update it to 11 since iPad was working well. Have you tried a reset all settings? That may well solve things for you.
