I assume it's an sms not an iMessage. SMSs come through regardless.
But yes, I do need cash.

I mean who doesn’t?
Well that said it seems like an all-around useless feature as every spam text that comes through is an SMS.
iCloud? Photo sync? Things like that are known culprits after an update. I would sign out of iCloud and back in and see if it helps. Also mail accounts will cause it (turn them off) reboot and turn back on. Giving the issues with Mail I wouldn't be surprised if that were the culprit.
It seems so obvious, but it took me 10 betas to realize that the homescreen volume bar can be dragged up and down (just like the Control Center volume bar)
mine had a large battery drain until I looked in location services and found some apps that had always on. Turned those off and my battery is back to normal.
Any idea why there are many apps missing from the Open App automations list? For example I can’t select Outlook to open if I open Mail app because it’s just not in the list. Same with camera.
Do the apps have to be updated to support this or is Apple limiting this feature?
The list of available apps is pretty short

Hi. Quick question. I’m concerned about the stability of iOS 13b8 (public), which is the last beta out. I usually get in on public betas in the last few. If I install the iOS beta profile, but do NOT install public b8, (stay with 12.4.X) will it still let me see and download the iOS 13 Final Candidate, when released on Sep 10 or will I have to install b8 before it sees it? Or am I stuck now because 13.1b2 is out and I don’t even have the option to get 13pb8?
Thank you.
Thank you.
You are making this way too complicated. The GM will be out in 2 days, just install that and forget about this whole beta 8 vs PB2 mess.
So this is why I’m asking if I stay with iOS 12.4 and install only the Beta Profile, will I be able to see the final candidate on Tuesday, without installing the current betas?
If you install the beta profile now, you will only see 13.1 beta 2. If you don’t install it, you will start receiving prompts to install 13.1 b2 in a day or so but you won’t need to install it. On Tuesday, you will see whatever the GM is. We don’t yet know what that will be.
Not the only one. My XSMax battery has been taking a beating on this beta. PB1 was better.
On the flip side, my AW battery is doing just fine with PB2 and AW 5.3.1.
Glad to know I’m not the only one either. My battery health sits at 87% but still shows optimal performance. The battery drain has been making me paranoid thinking I need to replace my battery >.<
I’m using an iPhone X.
It’ll show the GM and not 13.1 b2? I know in the past it would show the GM but then there wasn’t another beta cycle in the works simultaneously.
You nailed it with the last sentence. We don’t know what the GM will be: 13.0 or 13.1. If the latter, it’ll work the normal way. If the former, Apple will have to work some magic to allow people using the 13.1 beta to “revert” to a 13.0 GM.
I suspect that Apple will pull the 13.1b2 from being available OTA when the release the GM on the 10th. This allows anyone not running iOS 13.1 to update to 13.0 GM. 13.1 beta IPSW’s will still be available on the dev portal for them to download.
Then when iOS 13b3 is ready, which I’m guessing will be the 17th, that’ll be available OTA via the profile.
Yes, this means that people who decided not to hop off the beta train when 13.1 came out either wipe and start from scratch or stay on the beta train until 13.1 is released, but since that will probably be October, that’s not that long to wait.
I do suspect that the reason the build number still starts with 17A, is to allow the people on 13.1 b1/2 to go onto 13.0 GM. Then the 13.1 beta changes to 17B or something with Beta 3.
Since them doing 13.1 betas before 13.0 is released was something no one expected, means that all of what I said is very plausible, just as plausible as Apple rushing a 13.1 release to be GM on the 10th, despite a lot of issues being noted in this B2 issues thread.
