Ah, nope you are right. I've only looked at it while charging.
Also I've hard rebooted my phone and it's still just battery percentage when off the charger.
Only Apple wouldn't consider people might actually want a choice... or shocker... both.
I got an error while attempting to check for an update, that's a new one.
Then it became available after a couple minutes.

Would someone please do me a favor...
I’ve reported this twice already, but I really want to make sure that the issue isn’t solely on my end.
Open the Messages app and record a 5-minute audio message, then attempt to send it and see if it goes through. You don’t have to actually speak or anything, and you can just send it to yourself to avoid sending a blank audio message to a friend, but I’d really like to know whether a 5-minute message actually gets delivered for anyone else here.
Beginning with the first 12.2 beta, the quality of incoming audio messages didn’t change at all, but the quality of my outgoing messages sounds significantly louder, more clear, and with a bit more treble and less bass. And, for whatever reason, only messages shorter than 4 minutes will send. Anything longer than 4 minutes fails to send.
Thank you in advance. I really need to get to the bottom of this.

Right. I’ve just recorded a 5m08s message to myself and it seems to get stuck sending when the blue send bar goes about 80% of the way. Does that help?

Thanks so much! Yes, that’s what happens to me, too. Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t the only one!
I'm just confused as to why you'd want to send a 5-minute voice message of you talking rather than call that person haha
I just tease, but I'm sure as a workaround you could just record a voice memo and send that. I wouldn't know the purpose of using that to send a 5-minute message, because usually those voice messages are meant for small sentences. I'm sure someone will school me though and let me know why it's helpful, but in the meantime like I said voice memos will help if you do need to send a long voice message. I actually haven't tried that myself sending a voice memo over 4-5 minutes while I'm trying to say something about it. If it doesn't work, I take it all back.[doublepost=1549393106][/doublepost]Plus, at least with a voice memo, you can rewind to hear something that you may have missed. A voice message in iMessage would have to be replayed from the start.

I know that it’s not for most people, but my friends and I can’t stand talking on the phone...but will send 10-minute audio messages back and forth all day. It’s just easier than calling because, with audio messages, you have the freedom to listen/respond whenever it’s convenient for you.
With this new glitch, I just make sure that I break my messages into smaller chunks, so I’ll just send three 3-minute messages instead of one 9-minute message. Not a huge deal, but still annoying because I send voice recordings constantly. I can’t remember the last time I even used the Phone app.
App Store won’t refresh updates beyond January 31st. I can manually update an app by going to it’s specific page..
Updating to beta 2 did not fix.

It was on my 2nd gen 12.9 iPad. I was also charging it using the smart connector instead of the lightning which may make a difference.
I’ve been having that since b1. It’s so annoying!!! Sometimes it’s so bad, I have to forget network, turn off WiFi, reboot, turn on WiFi, select network and cross fingers the login page opens.
In Settings>Display & Brightness>Text Size when you drag the slider it only moves one spot, but continues to give haptic feedback as if it was still moving. You have to lift your finger and swipe again to move another spot.
It was there in the first beta too, so I added it to the remaining issues section on the first post. Reporting it now.
