I had had no issues with this updated beta, or the previous one, using wireless CarPlay via CarPlay2Air in an Audi.
Is this worded incorrectly? Should the word NOT be in there when talking about the notifications “will not appear”
Uh... the notifications WILL go to your Notification Center, so, it's correct.Is this worded incorrectly? Should the word NOT be in there when talking about the notifications “will not appear”
It's worded correctly. Notifications will be in the Notification Center and not shown on the Lock Screen.
This is too funny to be not sarcastic
Ok so I'm late on the game (I'm a regular user, not a developer) but just updated my iPhone and my Watch to the latest betas and the Watch-assisted unlocking works smoooooth !
As a Swiss French user, I just regret that the feature in both iOS menus and Watch screen notification is not fully translated to French, but it's a beta... that's ok.

I have downloaded the latest public beta into my iPad air and it is using battery so far. I have never had this happen on my iPad before. The beta has only been on my iPad for four hours and all I have been doing is reading CNN NZ Herald and a couple of European newspapers. And looking at my email. I have checked and there is nothing running in the background.
It has gone from 98% to 52% in that 4 hour period....
Am I being a tad over anxious and should give it a day or so to calm down?

I fully understand that. But saying it’s a mistake makes it even more ridiculous. Who would NOT notice these things during a proper QA process. I notice this stuff within a day or even less. Also the point of public betas was to have LESS of these kinds of issues overall, not more.
I noticed I now have 5G options with my FirstNet line. It wasn’t like this on previous versions (even when only using one sim). It doesn’t actually change anything though because FirstNet doesn’t have 5G.
My cell service keeps disconnecting so I’m going back to 14.4. It seems like it drops both sim’s every couple hours.

I faced couple of problems
Came from outside into my house and no wifi, phone was just searching, and had to restart the phone.
2nd issue is with youtube as some weird screen noise(small square) appears randomly on the explorer page and it just disappears when scrolling, cannot reproduce or screen capture it.

In Settings, the multiple line items offering Apple Services that appear under your name at the top have been consolidated into one item named “More for Your iPhone”
Although it’s new to you, it’s not new to this beta 😅
Not a new feature. It’s always done this for a long time now. It’s a setting.
It’s unlikely that Apple would drop support for a device in a minor 14.X update. For several years now, they’ve dropped support during major releases. At most, they continue supporting older devices but make newer features exclusive.
That’s been out since the very first Apple Watch!
Overall impressions: The revised release is better in almost everything for me on my 11Pro Max. Safari http/3 fixed, and general responsiveness is better.
The only issue that I have encountered so far is this: You know how CarPlay is supposed to pop up your garage door on the dashboard screen when you get very close to home? Well, for me it never worked reliably at all (beta or release versions) until the first 14.5 beta. It was then working perfectly, every time. I thought to myself "wow, they finally fixed it!" Then I installed the revised build, and now the feature has not popped up once, it seems to be missing altogether.
