Bluetooth issue not fixed. But it’s not as frequent as before.
Signal issue didn’t appear today.
Battery life and performance is definitely improved on this beta.
Running 13.1 PB4 on IPP 12.9 G2
Running 12.4.1 on IPP 11.
Same Mail setup on each.
The badge count on the PB4 does not always match the badge count on the 12.4.1
Reading messages on 12.4.1 will not update Messages on PB4. (Reported)
Battery life so far on PB4 appears to be unchanged.

Doubtful. There typically is no "GM" for x.1 releases. Plus tomorrow being Friday, the release coming Tuesday, and the fact that they moved it up by a week its unlikely there will be another release until Tuesdays final. Also the 'a' at the end doesnt really affect anything. It is simply a notifier of a compile version of a build revision. They will drop the 5 and the end letter on a final as a matter of naming convention. So if beta 4 is the release build for example, then 17A5844a will become 17A844 as the final release version.
That's double secret code for "when Apple releases it".
Seriously, all I've seen posted anywhere online is "soon". I agree, it's not particularly helpful.
Based on the history, it can be between tomorrow and the next release/beta build possibly Tuesday.

iOS 13.1 will be released to all on Tuesday, 24 Sep, so you can remove the beta profile any time before then. You can count the latest beta 4 as a GM equivalent. 😉

With iOS 13.1 going public on 24 Sep, another build before then is unlikely.
A lot missing and late and borked and just odd throughout the whole iOS 13 and Catalina beta and release cycle.
Expect in time that we will learn why Apple has had so many issues this year. For such a well-resourced company, it all seems rather iffy, as if there have been major tech or management hurdles that have been difficult to cross.
Mail app is still buggy. For example sometimes when replying to an email the buttons above the keyboard for adding attachments etc are missing.
They will remove all beta resources and hence probably change build number. Most likely nothing else, but one can only speculate.
Stupid question:
Can I download the iOS 13 developer beta profile from the same place that I got it from originally and have it work with my new iPhone 11 Pro, or do I need to install an iPhone 11-specific new profile?
I want to install the latest iOS 13.1 developer beta on my iPhone 11 Pro and am totally blanking on whether that’ll work or not.

Yes - thats how I did it, just load the profile on the 11 Pro, update to 13.1b4 - then delete all content/settings and restore directly or via iCloud backup
So, when I install the “generic” iOS 13 Developer Beta Profile (that I got months ago) onto a fresh iOS 11 Pro...it’ll automatically show that iOS 13.1 Beta 4 will be available to install?
The MacRumors forum theme is borked when you select the dark one (while on light mode in iOS), back out and back into Safari. It turns into a mix of light/dark. Only way to fix is reload the page.
This is, by all means, the build that gets released next tuesday.

You’ve probably found out by now; no, not via iCloud. It came with 13.0
I had to set up as a new phone. Re-register for beta program, update to beta 13.1, reset and restore from iCloud backup.

Yup
Happy to assist! I wasn’t sure if you were aware (I wasn’t at first) and didn’t want to leave it unsaid.
I updated from iOS 13.0 beta 8 to this new 13.1 beta 4 and i wouldn't say it's as smooth as it was before.
On 13.08 b8 i only had two bugs - photos app was crashing and keyboard in the instagram app was invisible and both of them are fixed in this beta.
But still, it's def not as smooth. Scrolling in apps, scrolling on the home screen, accessing control center, 3D/haptic touching on the volume slider (or any other) in control center and closing it stutters. I wouldn't say it's annoying but it's visible.
Apps open as fast as on 13.0 b8. I don't see any major difference.
The only thing i hate is that annoying lag with touch input. For example, when i 3D Touch on the volume slider in the control center and i want to close it, i have to double tap anywhere to close it because the first tap is not registered. It for sure wasn't like that in 13.0 b8.
If this is the "GM" version that they are releasing next week then i'm not satisfied. I wish they released another beta that would make it a little bit smoother.
I use an iPhone X.
