iOS 13 Speculation Thread [Merged]

iOS 12 finally brought grouped notifications back so that was nice. - change default apps (maps for example) - Messages hub (1 app for you to respond to all your messaging platforms: iMessage, text, fb messenger, whatsapp and whatever else is out there these days, rather than going into each...

Not to that extent! :oops:

As screwed up as the Mail app is, things like this are not a real surprise. :confused:

I wasn’t sure where to ask this but is anyone else having this screen stretching issue? I’m running iPadOS 13.2 and this usually occurs when swiping between apps. If I go to the home screen then open it back up it seems to fix the problem until the next time I try and swipe through apps. This happens with most of my apps not just Messages.

Just with Safari on some pages. It stretches the display well beyond the screen edge for me.
 
Well, now I’m getting constant freezes in You-Tube. I’m running SafarI, Mail, and iMessage in the background. Memory use issues?

As a note on where we are with 13, iOS 12.2 was released on March 25, 2019. In other words, it took Apple six months to get to the point release that they have reached in six weeks with iOS 13.

To be fair, iOS 12 was more of a maintenance release to clean up the iOS 11 mess. It was good right out of the gate (even betas) and continued to improve its whole reign.

I've had 13.2 for one week now after coming from 12.4.1 on my 7. Yes the constant app/safari reloading has been driving me insane! Talk about a kick in the gut coming from the rock solid multitasking experience that 12.4.1 was! Sheesh. Anyways once they get that BIG problem back under control 13.2 (for me) has been otherwise great in the parts that matter. Performance. Wow my 7 is faster than ever! I've really been noticing it because my apps have to reload so often!! lol both funny and not! But seriously everything loads faster than before. I can literally count that Pokemon go loads up a solid 4-5 seconds faster than compared to iOS 12. Youtube, tweetbot, Instagram, weather, everything is noticeably faster. It's very refreshing that my launch 2016 phone is still blazing fast 3 years later. There is literally no speed difference in day to day tasks between it and the 11 pro. I tested mine side by side with one. Nuts! And battery. Its been roughly the same but I think I'm actually getting a little bit better standby time which is truly shocking to me. I use the smart battery case and it usually kills the case battery with about 3hrs screen on time like clockwork at the same time each day when I have the same usage. So thats cool. Yeah and dark mode is very nice. That is the feature that lured me in and made me pull the trigger. I really thought 13.2 would be fine but dang I should have kept waiting a little bit longer. I really hope they fix the multitasking issues and we'll all be in great shape!

Fair, but that is sort of a two-edged sword. It highlights the mess that Apple is calling iOS 13, which is far worse than 11 was. For what it's worth (who knows), with iOS 11 Apple didn't get to the .2 release until December 3rd. :-\

Messages - New Issue
In Messages, main list, Select Messages, sometime the bottom 2-3 threads will show up misaligned.
See photo below: bottom 2 entries.
Doesn't happen every time and is more likely to occur with a longer list and you scroll down.

And were equally true. Well, 13 is worse than I remember any prior version. But the fact that other odd number versions caused a lot of negative user experiences does't negate or excuse this train wreck.

It doesn't negate anything. The observation was just to show that things like that have been said for all kinds of releases over the years and one way or another we still got through those and onto the next ones and so on.

I hadn't thought about this as a tick-tock exercise on Apple's behalf. 11 was very bad. Further back than that I don't really remember - there's no reason to. But you ticked off the odd numbers, and that may be true. You would think a company with Apple's resources could avoid that sort of cycle.

There were complaints pretty much for every/any version, including 8 and 10 and some had issues with 12 even, just the overall level of complaints and issues seems to be different when it came to those more "recent" odd versions.

and we did not have the "expansive" public beta testing either ....
you would think that this would generate an observable improvement on public release versions ...

Has anyone else noticed that the 50% reduction in App size is no longer working in 13.2? It was working fine in 13.1.3 and prior. But since 13.2, all the apps i've updated have returned to their original full size.

Do you mean app download (and update) size?

My iPad Air 2 was relatively fine under iOS 13.1.3, now under 13.2 it slows to a crawl after about 24 hours of uptime and I have to restart it. I’m pretty sure it’s related to the RAM management issue as it appears to be out of memory.

So you are saying that since iOS 13.3 beta 1 the you need to download more than before to update apps? That could certainly depend on what’s in the update, right?

No, not 13.3 beta 1. This is 13.2
