Feels good to finally be able to download OTA updates without WiFi. 5G for the win.
 
I had an issue which cropped up a few days ago where all my shortcuts which do language translations failed. The “Microsoft Cognitive Services” thing lost the ability to select any languages, so it did nothing.

This is now fixed, although I don't know whether the beta fixed it or simply reinstalling (parts of?) the OS did. Either way, they all now work.
 
Quite a big modem firmware jump for the 12 models from 14.2.1. I am hoping this improves the data speeds on Verizon, on top of the carrier profile, because my 5G/LTE speeds are garbage here in Houston most of the time. Didn't have these issues on my X when these 12 models were first released. I was switched from a grandfathered unlimited plan that I got years ago with my iPhone 5 to a newer unlimited plan with access to 5G ultra wide and hotspot access. This is a corporate plan.View attachment 1685282

Good gravy... I got waaaaay faster than that when I was on T-Mobile's normal old LTE.

I am also currently very displeased with Verizon's LTE. I regret switching and I'll be heading right back to T-Mobile when this contract is over.
 
What about the syncing of iCloud tabs across devices ? They had stopped syncing. Is it now fixed in this beta ?
Appears completely broken now. I’m not even getting old safari tabs, nothing is shown between my iPhone and iPad.

Guess that’s good that tabs from long ago are no longer displayed but now it’s just nothing.

I have nothing showing as well on both my iPad and iPhone.

Not down playing your slow speeds but I got 371 down on Verizon LTE yesterday. 🤣 12 Pro

With that said, I do seem to be locked at 25 up on LTE which wasn’t the case with my X or my wife’s 11 Pro. Not sure what that’s about.

I'm using a 12 Pro Max on Verizon. Compared to my 11 Pro with Intel modem, the 12PM's LTE download speeds are better but upload speeds are significantly worse. Hoping this will be fixed with a modem firmware update. (Verizon doesn't yet offer 5G in my area, but I'd read that the Qualcomm modem in the 12's was faster on LTE than the Intel modem in the 11 & X models.)

Siri suggestions widget is still broken. I see the "settings" app, long press to "don't show" and it is still there. Then in settings - Siri, it is set to not suggest.

Removed and added widget, no luck

Same here, glad it’s not just me. I just posted the same experience a few posts up. The conspiracy theorist in me thinks they are capping LTE uploads to make the 5G look better. Ha!

I was wondering if going to the e-sim might help..

I would imagine this Beta has the updates and fixes for the iPhone 12’s that came out in 14.2.1?
Thanks!
 
iCloud Clipboard is not working between iPhone and other devices.

Just tried and works both ways between iPad and iPhone using iCloud clipboard. Handoff works on all three devices and safari on iPad and iPhone are still showing nothing for synced tabs
