Anyone else notice the icons within a new safari tab are black and white with iOS 14.3 beta 1...

Anyone having problem with Chrome after updating to iPadOS 14.3 Beta?

App crashes and closes itself. Tried force closing, reinstalling, deleting, restarted then reinstalled. All failed. iPad Air 2

I've noticed if you turn Sleep Mode off before your alarm is due to go off, a popup now shows saying "It appears that you are awake, would you like to turn off the alarm", which is a nice QoL addition.

Does it worth installing over 14.2?

If you want to install betas, yes. If not, no.

Does this resolve lock screen issues on the iPhone 12 Mini?

Anyone experienced this bug? My smart widget enlarges and won’t go back to normal unless I restart the phone. Happens when I move widgets around or edit them.

Seems this doesn’t happen on my iPad running iOS 14.3 Beta 1.

Those pics are gonna eat up some memory and upload data.

Luckily turning it on in settings merely gives you the option to take pictures with ProRaw. It doesn't automatically force the camera to start taking them in that format because a ProRaw image is about 25MB, just like the typical RAW images taken by a DSLR.

Mine is fine on iPad

Still going through things and here are a couple of new items I have not seen in a while:

11 ProMax
- Photos that were deleted are showing back up. Not all - just a few. I noticed when I was cleaning out some shots and noticed that some have been “reappearing” over the last couple of days.

11 ProMax and IPP 11
Game apps (FF9, MotherOfAllBattles, Heckfire, FiledRunners) would randomly freeze. Poping out and back in usually fixes the issue. How full TaskManager is seems to have no noticeable effect.

Both items reported via Feedback.

Microphone and camera issues on iPhone 7 (see here) still there 🙄

Wow, my SMS issues keep on rollin' out. Now getting phantom badge counts, no new message anywhere.
I saw a message in my news feed that the SMS problem was pretty wide spread especially among iPhone 12 models. People getting new iPhone 12's right out of the box having SMS issues, nice. Hopefully a fix this week would be also nice.

Fix the lock sound and keyboard sound fluctuation. When writing key sound is low and gradually gets louder (I think to point where it should be). Lock sound gets louder is keep unlocking and locking phone. I have iPhone 12 Pro

Sounds (keyboard clicks, alerts) changing volume inconsistently

but if this was a software glitch then wouldn’t be more common on iPhones using the same software?? Thanks

Does your MagSafe Case change the Lock Sound?

I'm having this exact same bug after MagSafe charging a 12 Pro Max.

PLEASE REPORT THIS!

It seems that the HomeKit switches bug/glitch is fixed. In control center it doesn’t show a full empty row if you don’t have more than two devices.

Does this resolve lock screen issues on the iPhone 12 Mini?

If you explain it a little I can check. Running pretty nicely on my Mini. I did have some issues with my AirPods Pro cutting out when I opened Messages but since that I haven’t seen anything else out of the ordinary.

Anyone else’s CarPlay not working?

IF IT IS HAPPENING TO YOU.
Otherwise don’t report it.

Does it worth installing over 14.2?

If you use the Apple or 3rd party keyboards it may be. 14.2 disabled various keys while in certain apps. Apparently 14.3 resolves that.

Is the iMessage video bug fixed?

When sending a video it gets compressed too much. If I send a 6 second video to my friend the file size is around 1.5MB. If my friend sends the same quality and length video to me, it’s 15MB and looks so much better.

11Pro and 12Pro. Same settings and iOS versions. WiFi or cellular doesn’t matter. Both on Verizon Wireless.

You don’t have “low quality image mode” turned on, do you?

11 ProMax
Mail - Still having to manually refresh the app at times to get it to display correct counts.

Did email on IPP 11. Looked at 11PM later and noticed the Mail count on the IPP <> Mail count on the PM.
I opened Mail and on the bottom is states “Updated Just Now”. Manually refreshed and NOW I have the correct count.
Same ol’ Mail issues. Only correct account was my Exchange account.

Is anyone else's photos app crashing? When I open the Photos app it only shows a super low resolution photo when I open up any photos, and any actions (share/copy/screenshot/force quit) results in the Photos app becoming unresponsible. Camera app is affected too.

On iPhone X

Anyone with this? When locking the phone, the sound is wierd. A reboot will fix it.
