[atlchamp]

and this is revision "b"? sheesh

New splash screen when you open messages.

The last bit .... does this mean that it will finally consolidate messages from those people (*looks innocent*) who sometimes send them from their phone number and sometimes from their email address?

My App Store wonkiness (ie, no Purchase History for me since dev beta 1) is still there in this build, unbelievable

iPhone X Verizon. Things looking good. No sluggishness, apps that I use are opening good so far. More to come as I delve deeper.

I would HIGHLY recommend people not to install this beta... Rebooted my phone and the problems are still there. Let’s hope it improves as time goes by but the phone has become very unresponsive when opening apps or launching the multitask tabs. Even swiping down on Control Centre is very slow.

You know, let's give it an hour or 2. Who knows what kind of recompile this beta is bringing. Rather than getting all doom and gloom and giving out potentially bad advice, let's let the devices do what they need to do to get this beta fully installed. If its still like this after several hours, then start shouting about it.

> Messages in the Cloud
> Group FaceTime

I'm not liking this trend.

On the contrary I think it’s very good that Apple don’t stress out features that are not fully tested.

Did not expect this beta 7 to be this unresponsive on my iPhone X. It's pretty much hanging on every app. Can't even use Messages app, it keeps freezing.

Apps froze here as well. After a couple of minutes it fixed itself

I am facing the same issue. My iPhone 7 froze on restart. I was impressed by the fastness of the reboot. Merely seconds.

However the phone was in the beginning. Phone was really hot upon install and I thought it was throttling. I removed the cover and it’s become less hot. Will see overnight. Nothing can be done anything for now.

My iPhone X feels fantastic.

Very fluid, snappy, and apps open immediately.

Not sure why others are seeing issues...

Freezy apps and keyboard maybe a hour or 2 should fix this

My iphone X became totally unresponsive and sluggish after installing, never seen something like that, did a hard restart and still chugging along, WTF

Same. :-\

+1 - fortunately not seeing any of the above reported issues

 

[s2mike]

I’ve got Voice Memos, FaceTime, Maps, etc uninstalled and the Settings app no longer crashes.

 

[v3lasco]

Yeah on iPhone 8+ here and all apps are freezing up hardcore here as well as the iOS update badge is stuck.

That's fine. Announce when ready, then.

Update: seems as if the phone has calmed down now. Haven’t seen much lag or apps crashing as of yet. Early days but let’s hope it stays like this.

Do you guys feel that the animations are little slower in this beta or i am just feeling that way?

 

[mujtaba.mir]

On the contrary to everyone slating beta7, no crashes for me on beta7 on iPhone X and has been very smooth till now.

This is the issue that people are facing https://twitter.com/_inside/status/1029060213683445763

My phone (iPhone X) is extremely laggy.

Apps taking around 7-8 secs just to open, text input freezes.

I’ve tried rebooting the phone twice and I installed via ipsw on iTunes.

So far my impression is these betas are gradually regressing and not improving.

I am inclined to say yes to your question. Will test it in a while and see.

Nope, this is me as well. Gonna hold off on updating my iPad till next weeks release imo.

 

[thatJohann]

Gotta say I agree.

Looks like this beta sucks a lot
