Anybody with X (or any iPhone) getting 8+ hrs on screen usage without low power mode in a 24 hour rolling period? What’s the on screen usage you’re getting in a single charge?
This is the average I am getting without turning of most features. No low power mode.
Wednesday ( first on list) was 7 hr 4 min screen and 2 hr 22 screen off. Not bad for first beta.

I just looked on the wiki and it didn’t make any mention of beta 1 having random lock-ups. I’ve got an 8+ and I end up having to do a hard reboot on my phone a half dozen times a day because it just locks up out of nowhere.
Also, I can’t figure out what causes it but at least once a day my phone will stop being able to make or accept phone calls. It will still use cellular data but the phone won’t work. The only fix for this is a hard reboot.

Anyone experiencing either of these issues?

I had this Tuesday. Tried calling clicking a number in visual voicemail. No go. Rebooted and call finally went through. Then after that was at the hardware store and data wasn't working. Tried toggling airplane mode. Had to do another reboot. Was like WTH. I was getting so pissed. I know it's beta but this is the same ****. Common sense stuff, day to day features. The GPS one just gets me. Shouldn't have to do as new and restore from backup. Well, I did that yeah back to 11.4. gonna Hold out a few more betas. iOS 12 other than all that does feel nice.
 
Since iOS 10 Apple removed big artist pictures from local library Artist views.

I came across a picture that makes me think that Apple might be bringing back huge artist pictures for local library as well as for Apple Music service.

Could anybody post a few screens from Library->Artist-> 'whatever artist'

If it looks like this it would be confirmed that Apple has given Library music the same UI that for Apple streaming service. Which is great news in my book.

All but 3 of my artists pages looks like this. (Of those three, none have a ‘profile’ picture for some reason. Just the generic microphone.) It’s gorgeous!!

I have experienced the phone issue. Same solution for me (reboot). I did do a fresh, iTunes install yesterday to see if I could fix the gps issue. I’ll see if that resolved the phone issue.

For a first beta, 12 is surprisingly good. Definite improvement in overall responsiveness. I’ve gone back and forth, just to get a feel and there is a difference. No major bugs that I’ve experienced on my iPad Pro 10.5 and iP7 Plus. Google Voice on iPad doesn’t launch correctly, but issues with app compatibility are to be expected.

I like where the development of 12 is starting from. Very encouraged.
 
Do you have show Apple Music turned on in Music Settings?

All artists page are not like that (photo on top). It’s a hit and miss thing. Looks great with the photo.

All but 3 of my artists pages looks like this. (Of those three, none have a ‘profile’ picture for some reason. Just the generic microphone.) It’s gorgeous!!

Indeed it does mate!

Are you an Apple Music suscriber?

I turned on Show Apple Music in Settings and looked again. I checked four different artists that show photos in the thumbnails and I'm still getting what I showed in my post above which is the artist's name in bold and a list of their albums. No artist photo.

It is still early but I did a Reset Network Settings and that seems to have fixed the cellular issues as well as the phone locking up. Will report back later.
 
Anyone having issues with their Up Next Queue and Keychain Passwords disappearing?

I replaced my phone and when i restored from my ios12 backup my passwords and queue were gone...
 
Apple said:
The Apple Books app has been completely redesigned to make it easier for you to discover, read, and listen to your favorite books.
So “listen” refers to Audiobooks only. Siri won’t read me my favorite eBooks, right?
 
If you go into the restrictions under general settings it states that all restrictions have moved to ScreenTime, which is fine. However, no matter what you set the restriction settings to for internet content - unrestricted, limited adult, only allow specific websites - it will block every website except for Apple related sites. Crazy frustrating - church websites, google, facebook, etc. - anything but Apple in safari is blocked. Anyone else run into this?

I think it is a known issue, someone posted the workaround few pages back!

Yep, sure am!

Hmm that’s strange! Have you gone directly to their Apple Music artist page with all of their music (not just the music you own) yet? That could be why.
[doublepost=1529093134][/doublepost]I haven’t had any alarm issues (yet) aside from that annoying alarm symbol bug. It likes to stick around even after my alarm has gone off for the day. I have to turn the alarm back on then off to get it to go away. :rolleyes:

Is it a repeating alarm? I have mine set to go off on all weekdays and that symbol is constantly there for me. Is it not supposed to be like that?
 
On iPhone X, how is performance? iOS 11 has been stuttering for me, especially when scrolling through apps, home screen and opening Control Central. Dropped frames etc...
 
I really dislike the method for displaying battery stats; I miss when we were able to see screen on time relative to a full charge. I went from a full charge to dead in about 13 hours with roughly 10 hours of screen on time today. Of course, I had low power mode on and didn’t use much besides music, YouTube, tumblr, safari, and twitter. This is the best battery life I’ve had on an 8 plus.

I just noticed that force pressing the space bar no longer allows you to move the cursor within your text. Instead it seems the return key exhibits this functionality now.

I noticed this also but I didn’t realize the return key does it now. All this time I’ve been force pressing the letter area of the keyboard to do it. Lol

It’s not a repeating alarm, that’s what’s weird about it. I set it every night (a different time depending on which day it is) but I don’t have it set to repeat. Haven’t noticed it sticking lately either, kind of a toss up when it’s gonna do it.

That should really be pretty much anywhere on the keyboard when it comes to 3D Touch.
