[Banglazed]

Public beta is out

 

[Galza]

Will be the PB out in an hour? Don’t know what time is it in the USA. It’s 10pm here.

Just got it here in israel 11pm here but its called beta 6..hehe im on beta 6 right now funny

 

[Cu5co]

Yep, I think this was borked from about beta 3-4. Glad to have it back!

Only the last day for me!!

nothing here. NVM I had auto updates turned off. Turned back on and it works.

It says public beta 6. Guess that make sense since we never got 7 on Monday.

nothing here.

Is your phone antenna pointing towards Apple HQ? That'll get the best update signal.

iOS 12 PB6 is available

 

[Chris in DC]

Absolutely no app-opening delay or freezes (yet) on PB 6. Can't yet discern any difference from PB 5, but very fast and very slick nonetheless.

@SoN1NjA why remove the placeholders for the public beta in the Wiki post?! They make it easier to follow the format of previous posts once it does come out.

We used to never do PB info

If Apple keep releasing more iOS version like 13/14 with performance improvement I’m keeping this X for a long time

Follow the link... you have to re-login to your iCloud account following the latest update. Some iCloud data will not be available until you do.

Sometimes if iPhone hasn't backed up in more than 2 weeks, it appears like that.

A few of us made a concerted effort to start doing so. No need to remove it. Thanks.

On my iPad Air 2. From PB 4 to 6 = 2,16 GB

I saw this on both my iPad and my iPhone following the update:

Benchmark on iPhone 6s Plus. The best so far. It gets better.

I have been using the previous PB on my iPad Air 2 since a bit more than a week and I was already quite impressed by the improvements in overall fluidity (compared to iOS 11) and the stability, so I decided to upgrade my iPhone 8+ as well and wow it's amazing. I've never seen such a nice beta before.

 

[Freakonomics101]

Smooth sailing on all 3 of my devices.

iPhone 10
iPhone SE
iPad Pro 10.5 Cellular

X

He asks what device you have and you just send him a kiss.

Not helpful

It’s quicker on my X too hopefully will last

I really wish Apple would just label a beta build with one number, the same for developer and public. So what if the public stream starts on a 2 or a 3 etc.? As a public beta tester you either have an understanding of how these things work or you just don’t care. Many people join the beta program late in the day anyway, starting on a 4 or 5 or whatever. Worst case is someone joining at the start thinks they missed the very first one, but... so?

Anyway...
