[uandme72]

Hopefully this fixes the message notification issues..

What issues?

I though a build was the number, i.e they went from 5339e to 5345f. I guess not

A build number can mean a few different things depending on the company.

5345 is the build number here, while the letter at the end is the build revision. They had to make tweaks before compiling to stabilize it.

Someone may know/understand better but I’d assume yes the number goes up when they do a build, but then one gets submitted to testing. Any issues found in that testing get small fixes that increment the letter instead. Could be wrong and would like to see other replies!

Thats the build number. So the build itself changed 6 "major" points. But then the current version, 345, was changed 6 times before seeding to developers.

Once the beta ends in "a" or "b" you know its more stable from a QC point of view.

Well yeah but what they meant was THAT build was worked on 6 times.
so 5345a through 5345f

Hi

I’m wondering if anyone else is having this issue, This happened in Beta 4 & 5. When reduced motion is on & you make a call the screen flickers. I made a video to show what I mean https://1drv.ms/v/s!AoEFzbYthk1BhzPDj_33Kb96FRCK Does this happen in Beta 6?

Very fast install as well. What gives!

Modem firmware 2.06.00 instead of 05 on the previous beta.

Am I the only one who get's this setting app bug? When in the settings app & you click on certain things, the screen would just go black.

There must be some underlying thing that is breaking some apps, it seems. For me, most of my banking apps work, but there is one specific banking app that has not worked since about beta 4 if I remember it right.

So, I believe these apps would most likely be those apps that are using some old code.

The 'Sparkasse' App for example.

Edit
Still broken in the last Beta.

I had that too but after I rebooted, works fine

452.8 mb. These delta updates are so big but the differences are so subtle, haha

The visible differences may be subtle, but I'm sure there's a lot going on under the hood.

Still no Shortcuts for Siri app except through TestFlight invite like when is everyone else going to get to play with it I mean it’s Beta 6 now????

My commerzbank photoTAN is broken since b5. So, I actually needed to go back to 11.4.1. took me about 3 hours - but that’s the price for using a beta.

When final is released you‘ll be able to download the Shortcuts App through the App Store and start playing with it.

You can also request request access on Testflight on the developer portal.
