MS Edge and Firebox seem to be better than Safari at this stage.
In what way? Any specific sites or functionality? They both just use the same rendering engine as Safari on iOS.
Nope. It wouldn't let me upgrade to iOS 13 on my iPhone XS Max, so I performed a clean install. However, my iPad Pro was able to upgrade and can install profiles just fine, so maybe clean install wasn't the way to go in this case...
Also this isn't specific to just the iOS Beta configuration profiles. I'm on a few app betas which are done through buddybuild and not TestFlight, and they require profiles specific to the device. I can't install those profiles either from my iPhone but can from my iPad.
When I am using Siri through the apple watch, Siri doesnt recognize me nor does she reply to my questions. Its like she doesnt hear me. She also doesnt seem to recognize my contacts or me. She says she doesnt know who I am. All this through the watch. If I use iphone's siri everything works fine.
Then there is the airpods things. If I invoke siri through airpods I can barely hear her responses. Volume adjustment doesnt work.
I have restarted everything but nothing changes.
same on iPadOS beta:
when you talk to siri, she just keeps listening;
happening with me, but it takes like 1 minute or so for Siri to respond, but she will.
@ the bottom, where Siri has the little vocal color thingy, it still moves when i am quiet,
so Siri's sensitivity needs adjusting by Apple.

i had 1 app update today that updated normally
1 thing I am noticing is battery details is more refined, ie for example now battery reports background usage of vpn apps such as Adguard . VPN connection time is counted as background usage and also for Twitter notifications.
before it will just say app name and usage but now background usage is displayed too. Good to see.

Just to be sure, you face the same issues I described on top of what you said in your quote? Because you say "same on iPad" but then proceed to describe a different issue than the one I mentioned. Thanks.
Issues that I have with Safari do mot show up in those two browsers. Personally, for this beta, I prefer to use Edge on iPad with this beta.
It depends on your personal tolerance towards small bugs/glitches and annoyances and the possibilities of apps that you use in your specific workflows not working the way you'd expect which no one can really answer this for you because everyone's situation is slightly different.
Eyeseeyou, I was wondering in addition to the next email not loading can you:
Print emails?
Does the email that is displayed slip down a few or one, of the already read, and display?
Is the email on the iOS 13 device slow in syncing or not syncing at all with you other devices?
Damn. You forget your anniversary or something? You must have done something to upset her. Maybe get her roses?
In all seriousness, there seems to be quite a few Siri bugs right now.
My email is slow to sync. Often I see an error message at the bottom showing one of my accounts can’t connect. It eventually connects in its own.
My email app doesn’t open the email when I clicked from notifications. When I click a notif, it will open the app and land to the email or part Or positioned it was on and not the notification itself
I have been. Seems fine enough for what I do. Hopefully the next beta will be out by the weekend if we’re lucky. That’ll hopefully clear more things up than what it breaks. Still, been pretty good for me.
It might not be faster for you, but that doesn’t mean it’s the same for the millions trying it.
While his cautionary statement should be taken into consideration, it is rare for there to be a bug that makes a daily device unusable while running a public beta. There will be bugs and annoyances, but to run it on your everyday device typically only requires a high degree of patience. I for one LOVE testing the latest and greatest and have always put the Public Betas on my “daily driver”.
That said, beta testing isn’t for everyone. If you decide to install just be sure you create an archived backup and remember, you are running a beta. Good luck and have fun with it.
My Bluetooth turns completely off now when going into airplane mode as opposed to before where it was unaffected by airplane mode. Anyone else?
Edit: some people have been wanting it to behave like this, but I actually liked it the other way.
