iOS 14.3 RC― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[uandme72]

WiFi calling on spectrum mobile now works on this build.

Was it not working on the beta 3 On same carrier ?

I'd hate to cast doubt on the notifications bug being fixed, but the issue is still listed as "Open" within the Feedback app.

“Open” status on feedback is not correlated with sure resolution. So even if it is listed as open, it might get resolved.

Not surprised. I was told by Apple yesterday that they don't know the root cause of the issue yet.

Bizarre that something that has worked flawlessly for a while suddenly breaks. I wonder what Apple changed in iOS 14 that is causing this to be problematic.

Is the lack of Wi-fi calling issue common on beta 3? Are there many folk with no issue of this. May skip this RC as it’s my main device and Wi-fi calling is essential to me. Installing RC for iPad now.

From my understanding (unless I missed some posts, which is possible; someone correct me if I’m wrong), the issue with WiFi calling not being available was occurring for dual-SIM users, where WiFi calling was available and working on their eSIM line, but would not work on their physical SIM line.

In my case, I am using only the physical SIM (no dual SIM or eSIM setup) and have not had any issues with WiFi calling on 14.2 or 14.3 Beta 2 or 3, or the RC that was just released. I would notice any WiFi calling issues right away as my wife and I rely on WiFi calling at home for cellular connectivity. As always though, YMMV.

Has to be out by the 14th for Fitness+. My guess is a Thursday or Friday release.

This week or next week?

100% correct.people with dual sim setup may please confirm.

Can't be Thursday or Friday of next week as that would be after December 14th (when Fitness+ launches).

Doesn't seem like something like that would really be known for at least a little while, if not longer. (Seems like that's a fairly established thing across many release threads.)

The message notification bug is absolutely not fixed. Just had someone text me via SMS and no notification came on phone or watch. Also just checked iMessage and came to phone but not to watch. Guess we'll be waiting for yet another patch somewhere down the road.

Is anyone aware if support for PS5 dual sense remote actually works on this build? Hasn’t been working in last few builds. Thanks

Dumb question...Has the term "Release Candidate" now replaced "Gold Master" ?

Yup, we're not shipping things on physical media that has to be mastered anymore, so there's no point using that term.

100% correct.people with dual sim setup may please confirm.

Both my eSIM and Physical SIMs are currently using WiFi calling on this build

Thanks for confirming. I hope you had the problem in previous builds but not now .
Now I will also download for my dual sim phone.

 

[sbailey4]

So...have to wait another week for official release, right?

Not necessarily. Could be Thursday as that's a common release day and gives a few days to know if there is anything glaring to warrant postponing a release.

How’s the auto correct and swipe keyboard working? Both is a mess since iOS 13 for me

Coming from 14.2.1, I needed to disable and enable system services in location services for night mode to kick in again. It didn’t „get“ that it’s night already

Can confirm that iMessage notifications are still not coming in as they should.

Dual SIM user here. I'm on last 14.3 beta. No issues with Wifi calling on physical SIM (Verizon). I do not have it set up on eSIM (AT&T). Updating to 14.3 RC now.

 

[Maloney~888]

I did install RC 14.3 on my iPhone and Wi-fi calling is good. Don't use the dual sim function, BT is my call provider using the nano sim. iMessage notifications appear to be working OK too

WiFi calling working fine here on my 12.
