gps still broken.. unable to connect

Previews on AppStore are fixed on beta 2, I had my feedback resolved. It was showing images and videos from different apps.

iPhone X doesn't give the "Call Ended" message after being hung up on or hitting the end call button. Just goes right back to the screen you were on. Not sure how long that's been that way but I like it.

The animation when you 3d-touch a notification on the lock screen is a bit faster I think

I can’t tell if it’s “faster” or just broken. 3D Touch works the same everywhere else (like pressing an app on home screen).

Not sure if I like it lol

I like that the closing an app doesn’t require you to hold first then swipe up, but is anyone else accidentally closing apps if you try to swipe through the carousel?

Forgive me if this is posted, as I have not yet read through the 14+ pages yet but has anyone else noticed that in messages the colors are darker. For example, imessages the blue is much darker and when communicating with Android devices the green is not the light lime green, but a much darker, forest type of green? Iphone 6.
I am really surprised that no one has posted about this yet, as it really stood out for me.

No buzz here on 8+

An allergic haptic feedback comes on iPhone 7 plus when using touch id. Have currently turned it off from vibration settings in accessibility. And it turns off all 3d touch haptic feedback and phone becomes mute.. Must be a bug where they overdid the haptic feedback strength

Memoji camera is now finally working in Messages on iPhone X!

It was working on beta 1

Weather widget works fine on my 6s. Airpods pausing playback too.

For anyone with the Update Apple ID Phone Number prompt: a restart should unbug the endless spinner. After I restarted I was able to click the prompt and select „No keep my number“ as an option, which removed the prompt.

Weather widget is working on my iPhone X as well.

Working automatically for me. I have it always off but can still connect to it from my MBP on both iOS 12 Beta 2 and Mojave Beta 2

GPS works in Google Maps but not Waze.

GPS work fine for me in Waze on both beta 1 and now beta 2. iPhone X on T-Mobile.

iPhone X and Waze work perfectly on beta 1 and now beta 2. T-Mobile service by the way.

FaceTime for me is a dumpster fire on this beta. Constant audio dropouts, no video/sound from the other party, etc.

It’s a beta if you don’t want bugs go back to iOS 11.4 or stop complaining like a kid since you can’t use your phone properly it’s a beta what does it say when you update? DEVELOPER Beta not a public release are you even a developer to have the beta running on your phone? I’m a Apple developer and I’m running it on a second device not on my personal device since it’s a beta

 

[Miallo]

Maybe I'm crazy but something looks a bit different with the colors. Nothing bad mind you, but I feel maybe the colors are darker everywhere, like on weather app, settings icons, imessage, etc.

I might have activated it long ago myself and forgotten about it but under Settings -> General Accessibility -> Display Accomodations the "Reduce White Point" was turned on. Maybe it is that?

Screentime breakdown of different devices isn’t working.

When I’m on the iPhone X, all devices time and iPhone X time shown correctly. But time spent on iPad Pro not shown.

When on iPad Pro, time on iPad Pro shown but iPhone X time not shown.

I've been testing betas since iOS 7.0, you can get off your high horse now.. I know what I got into when I installed the beta. This is a beta thread for discussing beta things such as beta issues, did it seem like I was complaining or just reporting observations?

Is it just me or is FaceID blazing fast since beta 2?

Seems extremely fast for me too.

Updated to iOS 12 beta 2 this morning and now my number won’t connect to my iMessage account. Anyone else having this issue?

This made mine work - delete the email addresses leaving only the number. Send a test text and it should be ok.
Then add back the email addresses next. Send test text to check it.
For me, rebooting did not work.

I don't want to clutter the thread with anything too off-topic but holy crap the feeling of fluidity, solidity and continuity on a 7+ in this beta is amazing. iOS hasn't felt this solid since iOS 6 imo. I'd almost forgotten how it should be.

It's nowhere close to iOS 6. Heck its not yet close to iOS 10 yet. It's better than iOS 11 but that's it. It should beat iOS 10 by the time we reach 12.3.
