Still two major problems with the iPadOS dock:
  • You still cannot rearrange icons in folders that are in your dock. It puts the icon on the home screen. You have to drag the folder onto the home screen and then move the icon back into the folder.
  • Multitasking with apps that are in folders on the dock is still broken and has been since about DB4. You used to be able to tap a folder in the dock to open it and then drag and app inside that folder for multitasking. Still broken here.
 
My (very preliminary) theory: With the trade war between the US and China, Apple possibly has already built and shipped its launch batch of iPhones (normally, that would still be 2 weeks from now). Those had to have iOS 13 on them when they shipped, so they installed a build we've already seen. They will hit the shelves on Sept 20 and iOS 13.1 will be ready for them to update then or shortly after.

This may also explain some things, such as why items like automations were removed. If it wasn't ready for prime time during the beta prior to when they were removed, they were taken out. That way, if Apple did pull the trigger on early shipment, they wouldn't be caught with half-baked software.
Whew, that is a really interesting theory and I’m not going to argue against it. But what about future massive deliveries... would Apple really pull a financial stunt like this on a rather small batch of iPhones when future mass production units still might get hit by import fees? Also, remember that a great deal of iPhones are sold outside the U.S. which means those will never be hit by import fees due to the trade war between U.S. and China. The latter speaks against your theory, but I’m not saying your wrong. You could actually be correct. If so, then Apple is darn clever handling the risk for extra iPhone costs.
 
434.9 MB on iPhone 8, Qualcomm chipset.

This is really odd, before 13.0 gets launched, we have a 13.1 beta seeded to us. I am not complaining though. :) Let's see what refinements/ features they are planning.

On another note, Catalina sure does need more love at this point in time.

Apple sells several 10s of millions of iPhones in the launch window (launch +2/3 weeks post). If their margins on these are 35%, and they had to drop their internal sales price to absorb the additional tariffs, that could be a very large financial hit for them. They especially don't want to take this hit during the October-December quarter, which was bad for them last year. I think the vast majority of launch window sales are to the US, so it makes sense for them to ship a large slug early as a hedge.

Short cuts back in Safari share button. Not the shortcuts app but the appropriate short cut that will run on the page as viewed.
 
Is it me or does the App Store looks different? Like the cards are not fully covering the screen?

Announce with Siri is not back.
Hangouts crashes. Reboot did not fix.

This is one of the most credible theories I have heard.

They could actually be sending every new units straight to the U.S. to make sure they are safe from import fees. That could also mean Europe will be getting a later release date than the U.S.

Good theory you introduced!
 
so when you use the share sheet, you don't see blurred out contacts on the share sheet?
Seeing the same here but only visible in “light” mode. Dark mode looks just blank. Hoping that it just needs to index or something. If you go to share ETA from maps, it does show the contacts properly.
