Grab the window by the left edge then drag off the right side.

Thanks so much!

Anyone having scrolling/touch issues with Safari on iPad Pro? I had the issue with iOS 12 too but it seems even worse now. Sometimes I can’t scroll at all and if I tap on a hyperlink nothing happens. I don’t have any issues like this on my iPhone.

Also discovered that if you have an app installed (say google docs) and try to go into safari and work in the desktop google docs, it still kicks you back into the app. Not sure if this is how apple intended it to be, but that is what I am seeing. (The google docs app is a mess, which is why I prefer the desktop google docs)

I think I read this earlier, but I’m having a problem changing Siri’s voice. Tried changing back to American, but download status stays at 0%.

Then I tried changing it back to British. It will give the check mark, but when you back out, it still says American. Go back in and it’s still trying to download, yet still at 0%. I tried turning the phone off/on, yet the issue remains. Time to give feedback.

Exact same thing with what I’m having! Overall fun experience so far! Love dark mode. iPhone X

It’s a known bug that will be fixed in the next beta. Just try updating the trouble apps individually. Or restart the store.

Mine weren’t updating earlier today it not do fine

We are all experiencing it. Took me a hour to update 4 apps. Nothing we can do. Next beta will fix it.

***Dual Sim*** I can confirm that data can now be used while on a non-primary phone call and data is set to primary only.

Good job Apple.

And iMessage and FaceTime available on both numbers on dual-SIM devices! Happy to be back in blue bubbles for work texts. LOL

I usually charge mine at work, then let it ride till the next day.
[doublepost=1561583922][/doublepost]I'm also seeing a serious battery drain on my Apple Watch. I'm wondering if I need to re pair it with my Xs.

Same with my Apple Watch.

Is anyone having issues with WiFi? My WiFi connection is intermittent sometimes. Both on iPhone X and iPad Air 2

Quick question, how do you dismiss a slide over window in ipados? Am i supposed to slide to split view THEN slide to the side?

Bingo! This is so, so unintuitive. Fix this, Apple!

Yes. File a bug report.

 

[Sharkoneau]

Does anyone have “Optimize Battery Charging” turn on randomly after a restart or while charging? I’ll turn it off without telling it to activate later, yet it’ll enable itself.

SwiftKey will occasionally not respond, but cycling the globe button and coming back to it makes it work again.

Feedback filed.

Sidenote, I still can't give SwiftKey up for QuickPath. It's a step in the right direction, BUT there's too much customization with SwiftKey to give up.

The issues with SwiftKey are entirely theirs to fix and will be when they release a compatible version for iOS 13. I faced too many bugs with SwiftKey on iOS 13 where the keyboard would either crash to default or would become entirely unresponsive to the point that the globe key would fail to change the keyboard and ultimately resorted to using the default keyboard until the next beta or a SwiftKey update.

For me, the languages is where SwiftKey Keyboard wins now. It has a very good database of Indian words that Apple's does not.

Yeah had an issue with SwiftKey as well. Try typing in WhatsApp and hitting enter, text will enlarge and sometimes the keys i press is not registered in the text box.

And yes, reported.

I'm going to have a rare disagreement with you here! In iOS 12 I'd sometimes be trying to grab that handle and quickly throw into split view and accidentally throw it off screen instead. I really prefer now that the top handle is for dragging in out of split and slideover and the left and right edges are for resizing in split or moving in slideover. Feels much more consistent to me.

I’m on the PB so not sure about beta 1, but are we seeing thicker/bolder fonts in iOS 13? Not a fan :/

I’m ok with the gestures. It’s trying to remember what does what and how to grab the windows.

I use slideover a fair amount, in part due to a video app (BritBox) that stubbornly refuses to enable PiP, so I probably internalized that one a bit faster than I would have otherwise. Learning curve for sure, but it's eliminated accidents for me so I'm overall happy with it.

Top - change modality between slideover and split
Sides - move in slideover, resize in split
Bottom - slide up for expose, swipe right for fast switch

Has haptic feedback been removed from eg time pickers (when selecting time in an alarm for example)?
(Maybe it has been discussed before)

Finally managed to connect my bluetooth magic mouse to the iPad and i have one question. Do i really need to actually click to scroll? doesnt seem like i can just scroll with the mouse without clicking

I don't know if someone mentioned or noticed this:
On iOS 12, when playing over bluetooth to a device or car, when receiving a notification, the sound notification would echoes on the bluetooth speaker. Now on iOS 13, the sound notification echoes only on the phone. This a cool change because until now it was very annoying, so that the playing was constantly interrupted by the notifications.

I’m just going to have to keep practicing!

Restarting the store then restarting the updates seems to work most of the time.

By restarting the store I assume you mean closing by swiping up from the task list? Then launching again?

I actually managed to get the apps updated last night, I restarted the phone and then updated one by one, it was still fairly slow but each one eventually completed successfully.

The weird thing is the slow updates only happen on the iPhone, I get normal updating of the same updates on my iPad Pro.

Mac Rumors is only giving me desktop option in Safari on my iPhone Xs, then when I click forums it pops back to Mobile version. Anyone else experienced this!?
