Any beta 4 users starting to have some serious hiccups suddenly? Freeze ups and re springs constantly, even after a hard reset.
I know it’s a beta, but I’m curious if anyone else was running smooth at first, and now the freezes.
iPhone X on beta 4.

Beta 4 is pretty much a disaster for my iPhone X.
It hasn’t been great on my iPhone X either. I’ve filed several bugs.
Not that I’m happy about this, but I am glad I’m not the only one. Beta 3 was fantastic. Beta 1 was fantastic. 2 and 4 seem to be a f**king nightmare.
Hello,
I updated my WhatsApp to version 2.18.80 and went to test it on the locked screen using Siri, and I saw that there is a security hole, where on the screen blocked using Siri, you can send message via WhatsApp to anyone. needs to be corrected as soon as possible.

In all seriousness: don’t tell us, tell Apple and Facebook.
Yeah it has been a real pain for my X as well. I don't think I've been this annoyed with a beta ever.
iPhone 7 suffering too. Especially battery. Beta 2 was awesome, three was more or less but 4 is - uffa
Yep... for me it’s the worst So far. Performance issues, battery drain, stuttering.
Running smooth on my X. No major problems. Battery life is 1 or 2 hours less than normal, but still reliably enough to get me through the day.
Yes. Crashes, missing notifications, freeze ups sometimes requiring hard reset. Messages app all screwed up. Last Beta almost felt production ready, this one not so much at all.
iPhone X
I bought my iPhone X right when it first came out, and received it early November. Now running iOS 12 Beta 4. According to Apple’s Battery Health feature, my battery’s health has dropped steadily, and is now at 94%. That seems like a substantial drop for less than a year. Any thoughts on if it’s an issue with the battery, my care of the battery, or just the Beta status of the Battery Heath feature? Thanks
Mine is at 92%, it could be the beta, but I think it's either a bad battery or simply just the way I've used it (temperature/charge cycles). I bought mine on launch day as well. Not too worried about it since I upgrade every year.
Ok so I’m getting a replacement X tomorrow due to a damaged screen. My current device is registered against a Dev account so I’m currently on the latest iOS 12 Beta.
I plan to get the new decided added to the Dev account but I want to restore my current backup (made on iOS 12) onto the new phone which will be iOS 11 out of the box.
What’s the best at to go about this?
Thanks

Setup the new phone as new so it can activate on your carrier. Then, update the phone to iOS12. After the update, restore your backup.
Just use the 'Restore from Backup' option in iTunes. Don't use the 'Restore iPhone' as that will re-install the latest released iOS.
I wouldn’t be too concerned until we get the official iOS 12 in September. Some of the power management tweaks being tested in these betas might be affecting the accuracy of the battery health figure. My X dropped from 100 to 96 since installing iOS 12 public beta 1. It doesn’t seem plausible to me that that’s accurate. So I’ll reserve judgment until September.
