[ErikGrim]

Got my iPhone X on launch day and my battery health is down to 92%

Same and mine's down to 95%

Sorry, TL;DR the thread... saw a note in the wiki about Wallet crashing... does this impact ApplePay or its use? I use ApplePay regularly, and don't want to give it up for now.

Used AP for lunch with no issue.

Most thumbnails for videos in the Photos app are grey. Anyone else?
Edit: Added screenshot.

Not happening on my iPhone X

Just installed! Sad to not see the new emojis but maybe in beta 5.

I don't believe that Apple has released the new emojis prior to the GM/GA release of the new operating systems (iOS and macOS). I do not ever recall seeing them in the beta releases.

Anyone noticed that graphics glitch in Watch App for some watchfaces like Chronograph or Utility (white blocks instead of the numbers)? Still there after force closing Watch App an restarting phone and watch...
It is only visible in the watch app to be lucky, on the watch everything is normal (running WatchOS 5.0 Beta4 on Series 3 AppleWatch and iOS 12.0 Beta 4 on iPhone 8 Plus).



Just filed a report.

Huge if true. Can anyone else confirm?

Ah i got it slightly wrong. Having just checked, it’s the same rendering as my iPhone 7 plus

New Emoji will probably be in 12.1.

On my iPhone, I can't open "Recently deleted" in Voice Memos if all recordings are deleted. Clicking "Recently deleted" does nothing so I can't restore or permanently delete them. The iPad version works though.

With this beta 4, it feels like we are regressing into iOS 11 levels of bugginess compared to first 3 betas.....and it’s just been an hr into it.

I don’t feel that at all.

Major new feature: battery usage display breaks down the battery consumption by app on an hourly basis over the past 24 hours.

Unless I’m missing something. It’s done that since definitely B3 and possibly B2.

The animation for unlocking iphone x has become slow again. Cant provide a screen recording, but if you dont swipe up and just let it recognize you so it unlocks, its clearly visible.

Hopefully this fixes 5Ghz wifi dropping.

5Ghz still dropping

 

[Craiger]

5Ghz still dropping

Came here to say this. I actually hadn’t had a problem before. Now, it’s dropped twice in the last 10 minutes.

For me beta 4 is not a good update. Feels more buggy overall and the GPS issue is back with a vengeance. Yes, some bugs of beta 3 have been fixed, but overall it is not very good.

I am considering going back to b3...

After what you have written here I don’t want to update to the new beta.

Restart your phone. It's actually charging, but the percentage isn't changing. If you restart, the percentage will show the actual value.

My iPhone went to 0% and won’t charge.

Just installed! Sad to not see the new emojis but maybe in beta 5.

If Apple follows previous practice, we won’t see these until 12.1 in October or so.

This beta feels good overall on my iPhone X but extremely smooth on my 10.5” iPad Pro.

 

[nortonandreev]

The margin between the artworks and the progress bar in the Music app is smaller now.

Haven’t had any issues whatsoever on my iPhone X but I feel ios 12 is getting less snappy with every new beta.

I felt beta 1 and 2 were impressively snappy. Now I don’t get that feeling anymore. Then again, maybe I got used to it.

 

[pinkoos]

My iPhone went to 0% and won’t charge.

Oh no! Mine seems to be charging, albeit slowly, though now it seems that the percentage does slowly increase as it's charging whereas yesterday the percentage was not changing, but after a reboot it showed the, I'm assuming, true higher percentage.

Tap to shoot on Fortnite doesn’t work for me.
Anyone else?

 

[mikejd1]

Anyone else missing their VPN setting now?

Never mind. I’m an idiot

Trying to edit/crop screenshot in iMessage crashes when you click done. Present in beta 2, fixed in beta 3, broken again.

 

[nortonandreev]

Grouped notifications expand automatically when iPhone is unlocked.

Feel the same way.
