Woohoo! Public Beta out too.

 

[TheSkywalker77]

We’re back in business!!

Hoping this’ll fix the random frame drops I’ve been having, those have been annoying.

 

[christian.terra]

wow surprised by the d build after a month without a beta.

 

[DimaVR]

Finally lol.... Installing now! lets see what else they broke today

 

[devesh9]

It downloaded so fast. But preparing update is too slow. Anyways let’s find if all the glitches have been ironed out

Also it says you can download the beta on mobile network, but doesn’t allow it. Need to be connected to WiFi

 

[WaruiKoohii]

What were you expecting? It's beta 2.

yes im hoping for that also

Was only like 300 mb or so on my iPhone 10 xs max

 

[CLS7]

Can someone confirm if the audio issue that sound level will increase and decrease during game play on iPhone 12 Pro Max?

 

[mngdew]

Well, I hope they debugged the hell out of it since they had a month to play with.

 

[roncron]

Woohoo! Public Beta out too.

Can anyone verify this? I didn't install PB1, I just now installed the public beta profile, and the update I'm showing in settings > general > software update looks like beta 1. Plus, neither Macrumors or 9to5mac is saying that the public beta has released yet - both are normally on top of it.

 

[Donga120]

OLED black level not fixed still

 

[TheSkywalker77]

Can confirm the frame drops are fixed!!

 

[uandme72]

Anyone update about fixing of iCloud tab sync issue.

 

[gank41]

Anyone update about fixing of iCloud tab sync issue.

I'm curious about this as well. And if that would also require the new macOS beta update released today, too.

 

[Nixle]

If anybody can check if the lock sound issue when connecting a MagSafe accessory is fixed?

Only dev is out

Tiniest possible spec bump to modem firmware on Qualcomm iPhone 8.

Modem firmware updated from 6.41.00 on beta 1 to 6.41.01 with beta 2.

 

[LK265]

I wish people wouldn’t ‘confirm’ something is fixed...It isn’t confirmed until I see no one complaining about it or I see it written in the release notes of the public release 😅

 

[dannyyankou]

Well, I hope they debugged the hell out of it since they had a month to play with.

It’s been a month because people were off for the holidays, so it’s not like they’ve been working the entire time.

Would someone please confirm the build for the PB? I show 18D5030e on my iPhone & software update says I am up to date. I didn't download/install anything. Also the date in the OP says January 13, 2020.

 

[dk001]

For all those asking to “confirm” a function or something, give those of us who are installing and usually test to some depth a chance.
Like maybe ask tomorrow?

Thx 😎

Are the notifications for incoming iMessages coming through as phone numbers instead of the sender’s name for anyone else?
