Yes!!!! Let’s hope safari is fixed!!

 

[uandme72]

Can this contain a fix which is not included in 13.3 beta 1?

 

[Am3r1ca16]

13.3 beta 1 release notes? People rushing to be first to post I see.

It can.

 

[SVTmaniac]

There wasn’t even a 13.2.1?

 

[Lobwedgephil]

 

[uandme72]

It can.

Then how will that fix get included in 13.3 betas?

 

[C DM]

Then how will that fix get included in 13.3 betas?

In a future beta.

 

[dan9700]

wonder what 13.3 has changed now we have a fix

 

[C DM]

There wasn’t even a 13.2.1?

Seems like that was used for the HomePod update that came out recently.

 

[uandme72]

Is notification centre also considered an App?

 

[imagineadam]

How long till it usually goes live in iTunes? I keep mashing the check update button but nothing yet?

How long till it usually goes live in iTunes? I keep mashing the check update button but nothing yet?

Like one hour for me usually since they released iOS 13

 

[C DM]

Not really, just a feature of iOS. Why?

 

[macintoshmac]

Being on 13.3 beta 1 since it came out and on iPhone 8 it works really well for the major issues I was facing: background refresh and data. Instead of refreshing every single time, I have had only one refresh and my data speeds have received a very good boost.

So 13.2.2 should be good for users.

 

[deep1]

Possible to downgrade to 13.2.2 form 13.3 beta 1 without losing data? Shift update still works with ipsw?

 

[yeahtyeaht]

There wasn’t even a 13.2.1?

There was but just for the Homepod

I tried that with 13.2 to 13.1.3 and it worked but.... All of my messages disappeared!!! YMMV! Ended up just hanging with 13.2.

 

[uandme72]

This release says it fixes unexpected background quitting of apps. I face mail notifications vanishing from notification centre. So if notification centre is an app, then I can expect the resolution of vanishing mail notifications from notification centre.

Oh thats so long to wait! Jk. I just don't take the chances with OTA anymore. Plus the iTunes install process is just way faster.

I do have back up on 13.2.1 on can restore to that but not worth hassle, will stay on beta, thanks

Seems like those are fairly different and separate things.

Ok.
That means I will have to wait more.
Nevertheless is the vanishing mail notifications issue not faced by others?

I mean there could be a fix for something like that as well, just that the particular multitasking fix doesn't really say much about something like that.
