iOS 12 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[gwhizkids]

Pretty much confirmed that workflow will become shortcuts app on release day. Siri now has a page: https://www.apple.com/siri and if you click on the shortcuts app link, it opens workflow: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id915249334?mt=8

It opens Workflow, even if you have Shortcuts installed, in fact.

HSBC worldwide still crashes upon launch.

Can anyone confirm if this pushes a HomePod update as well?

I can confirm that it doesn’t. Curious why you thought it would?

Obviously it will. The link is public and points to workflow only. What is interesting is on the https://www.apple.com/siri, the link to download Shortcuts is actually a link that opens workflow.

I wasn't sure if it was tied to an OS update or just comes when ready specific to the HomePod. I couldn't remember. I had issues connecting to my HomePod when I tried the first iOS 12 beta (reverted and haven't tried since) so I was hoping to see an update alongside. We'll see how it goes I guess.

Went from 2 hours to 4 minutes while browsing MR. The key is to look away...

A watch pot never boils!

I imagine it’ll go live on Monday with the rest of the public releases as there is currently no way to install beta software on the HomePod.

Makes sense. Thanks for the help.

Nah, that is available Monday.

So it doesn't even have new wallpapers? My iPhone has been trying to update for a while now but waiting time is off the charts.

My guess is because in the app store, Workflow will basically get an update that changes it to Shortcuts, instead of Shortcuts and Workflow both being in the App Store at the same time

It does not push a homepod update.

Surprised they let this go live with the activity app bugs, it's showing incorrect data, e.g. saying my last 200% movement badge was the 7th, when I've gotten it every day, including today.

Yes, I think Workflow the App's days are numbered. Long live Shortcuts!

Maybe it’ll work fine with the updated watch OS?

New wallpapers??

During upgrade from beta 12 to GM on my 6S, itunes showed me the unknown error (-1).

Is there anyone who got the same error?

I got that error too so I unplug it and it will reboot and continue to install.

Too late, it's already downloading 11.4. I hope it will restore.

Please look out for this issues

• Printing for normal webpages is missing in Safari
• Videos no longer can be seen via Imports tab in Photos
• Issue with images failing to load in messages.
• Turning on/off personal hotspot from settings is not possible sometimes.

What does printing from normal webpages mean? It works perfectly fine with MR in Safari.

I was just going to ask if anybody did this with no issues so thanks for posting.

It does not, unfortunately I was hoping it would but it does not include it, or for the possible AirPods update
