Is Excel instantly crashing for anyone else? (10.5 iPad). Word is fine, but I’m in the TestFlight for that. However PowerPoint is also fine and I’m on the App Store version, same as Excel there.

Edit: never mind. Reinstall did the trick.

It looks like it was just rearranged and sent to the bottom

Not for me! For me, they are plain gone! :p

Anyone else got the red 1 badge on their Settings icon, but can't find anything in settings that needs attention? Got this on my 8 Plus.

Had it on my 10.5 iPad Pro, but when I went into settings it had a badge saying I needed to sign into some services again. When I did that it went away. Nothing similar on my phone :(

Go into About, possibly there is a carrier settings update?

WTF huge bugs on this beta, go to setting then safari and the phone locks up and goes crazy also load of major crashes using setting plz can others check go to setting and safari and let me know

Do you have content blockers installed? Things can go haywire depending on apps installed as well. Try to remove content blockers and then see. I wholeheartedly recommend Wipr - it just works. Also, reset settings. Try a full DFU restore and see if that helps.

Welcome, once again, to the joys, unreliability, hair-pulling madness moments of beta software. No need to panic and get exasperated. :p

Reinstalling Instagram and Voice Memos completely changed my opinion on this build, fixing my main gripes.

How are your geofence issues with this beta? Did things improve?

I‘m not really sure what I would have done when I would be not in this forum. lol

Tip: Google the problem. Most likely, you will get a Reddit link or an MR link. :p

Why is the Public Beta always behind the developers? Today Beta 6 was released, I was prompted to download Beta 5. Why is that ? Thanks

Apple's Mind Games.

Though, truth is, they are the same at this point.

3D Touching a Siri shortcut suggestion immediately crashes my iPhone X every time.

My first response to this is - where exactly are you touching the shortcut, perhaps it is not liking it.
 
HUGE BUG

Already reported..

When accessing Settings App, whole screen goes black. Accessing it via Siri opens the Settings app, also completely black.

Unusable. Anyone else?

If you have any of the "default" apps uninstalled.. reload them and try.
 
Running iOS 12 Public Beta 5 on my iPhone 8, so far so good.

Only disappointing aspect is the mass culling of wallpapers from the Settings menu, I don’t even have the default iOS 12 wallpaper anymore!
 
iOS 12 Public Beta 5 on my iPhone 8+ made Bluetooth unusable.

This morning I was happily using PB4 with my Jabra Sport Elite headphones. Now I can't connect them to my iPhone - when they connect, iOS immediately goes into a loop of turning Bluetooth off and then on again.

PB5 on my iPad Pro works fine with my headphones but they now can't connect reliably with my iPhone.

Forgetting the device then re-pairing it solved the problem.
Annoying, but forgivable.
 
What is happening with the 6s+? It can't check for updates. I'm on public beta and I get "an unknown error occurred".
 
I have the same problem like you. Reported it to apple. I want to go back to the previous beta. Seriously.

You can, just download the IPSW for beta 5 and Option+Update in iTunes.

All iOS 12 betas are still being signed by Apple.
 
Not sure if this is new for this build but mobile data is now sorted by data used versus previously sorted in alphabetical order

Same here. Have tried Calendar and Safari, screen goes black. Closing App and reopening doesn‘t work immediately. It takes some time before it loads again.

Edit: Siri & Search, Mail, Contacts, Maps, Photos, Books, Podcasts and any 3rd Party App as well.

Edit 2: as @CamiMR pointed out:

  • Settings might unexpectedly quit when attempting to open Siri & Search settings if FaceTime, Mail, Maps, or Voice Memos have been uninstalled. If this is happening, Apple suggests installing the missing apps.
Black screen (considered crashing) every time I open Safari in Setting.

Following the last advice here, i’d install Maps ... still crashing.

Next to install, Voice Memos... Boom crashing gone.

All is well now to my oldie but goodie IPhone 6Plus.

Btw, I did full reset before, no luck either. Just re-install the missing “required” apps.

Thanks mates!

AirDrop seems to be broken between my Mac and iPhone. They just don't see each other. I tried restarting, attempting to send one or multiple pictures.
It's actually the first time when AirDrop is not working for me.
 
Is there a way to fix the “Can’t Connect to the store” error in App Store? It’s simply refusing to load for me on a Wi-Fi network.
 
I’m still having iMessage activation problem since beta 5. Help me please
 
I’ve had four resprings so far. All within iMessage.

Also if I type out a message in iMessage but don’t send and open another app, say to check a phone number or copy some text. When I go back into iMessage the typed out message has disappeared.

Do the following

1. Settings - Messages - turn off iMessage (if the button is on)
2. Settings - FaceTime - turn off FaceTime
3. Restart phone.
4. Settings - Messages - turn iMessage on and it should activate.

I constantly get endless pop ups saying I’ve won a $10000 amazon gift card bc I’m an iPhone X user
Have you tried clearing out your Safari History and Website data? Worked for me the last time I had that issue.

Will it load on cellular? If so, load up the available updates then flip on wifi before hitting update.
