iOS 14.5 Beta 7 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[MauiPa]

Hope @Banglazed is alright...

Anyway, as mentioned in the Speculation thread, the blank bar bug in the Messages app is still here. Shocking, I know.

I’m not having any such thing

 

[MauiPa]

Has anyone had the issue of reminders always having an "Overdue reminders" notification upon every restart? Had this for a couple of betas and even deleting & recreating reminder hasn't fixed the issue.

Hope it'll fix itself for good when all my devices are on 14.5

Nope

How’s the battery life 😆😂

It’s fine

It’s fine

Seems to be better on my 12 pro max so far, 90% left 1h30m usage. I’ll keep a eye on it throughout the day. 👀📱

Really? On what planet? In the auto industry (where I suspect this phrase originated), it means an auto manufacturer.

Re OEM

No it doesn't. It usually indicates a replacement part made by an original 3rd party manufacturer to original specs, generally independent from the auto manufacturer. "Genuine" parts are usually those available from the auto company service department that are identical to the parts from the production line. NOS or "New Old Stock" are usually unsold discontinued "genuine" parts, no longer carried in the current inventory.

Not sure about that. OTA I have updated my iPad, my iPhone and my watch without updating any profiles.

Last week the profile were pulled by apple and new once’s were given out. Look into, you might need to remove the profile and install new ones. Everyone did it last week it was needed cause apple pulled previous profiles so you might have an old one installed

 

[DimaVR]

LOL ... don't say such things! iOS 13 brought me tons of nightmares for one entire year.

Who didn’t have issues it was the worst release ever! Lol 😂

This person is right

No new modem version since a couple of builds?

Is this new in the App Store there are these headers never seen them before

Not seeing this…weird!

save people time watching this, nothing new or nothing changed

The wallpaper is really cool though 😂

I never updated mine and I got the new beta OTA just fine

I had a new profile downloaded a few days ago, but the new beta 7 was not showing up for me. What solved it for me was to redownload the new profile, install it and reboot, as normal. I am now in the long, preparing update stage right now.

Then iOS 14 came to de-throne iOS 13 as worst release. Lol

Experienced this in the last beta, but I'm curious if it's carried over for others: I reported very poor incoming video quality, while received via iMessage within Messages. The thumbnail was absurdly small, and the expanded video was very grainy during playback (almost hyper compressed). Has anyone encountered this?

I have noticed that before as well but I don’t get a whole lot of videos sent to me.

I didn’t realize mine was unverified and my beta 7 downloaded just fine as well. Hopefully it’s okay? Lol

No iOS 13 was way way worse

 

[dk001]

How about the camera issue where photos looks blurred in low light? Have Apple fixed this in beta 7?

Will do some testing over the next few days.
I can say that if you are 1x and switch to 2.5x the lens used doesn’t change in bright or low light.
Still.
Reported.

 

[iOSBry]

No iOS 13 was way way worse

Agree. For my iPhone and iPad the last two betas have been wonderful.

Both devices feel great to use and while I experience a few minor bugs (aren’t showstoppers for me personally), the OS feels more refined, confident/stable and a joy.

 

[marzfreerider]

Well I still get a purplish hue on my 12 PM in settings, mail, phone and other black screens. If I go to phone app and switch between favourites, keypad I get a purplish hue still, same with settings choose a different category and go back purple happens. 3 betas and still dealing with it, even got a little worse. Have reported it 4 times now.

Whacky.
Beta 4 - 100%
Beta 6. 98%
Beta 7 - 99%

12PM
Basically don’t trust it at this point.

Technically yeah I guess you’re right especially in the beginning. But they ironed out a lot by spring. Which is what I’m hoping 14.5 will do.

No, it does not mean that. I worked for an automotive manufacturer for over 20 years.

Yep, gone back to crap, 73% left, 3h10m usage.

Normally have 4h40m usage with 65% battery left.

Yeh idk that’s strange

No, it does not mean that. I worked for an automotive manufacturer for over 20 years.

This isn’t the forum to argue about, it the statement made about OeM and nos parts and what they mean is 100 percent correct. This is coming from some who played with 1975-1992 VW GTI cars and Golfs and Rabbits cars my entire life. That’s exactly what OeM and nos terminology means.

men’s if story lets move on

Right. My working at a literal OEM counts for nothing. Sorry to have disturbed your playing with toy cars.

Moving right along.
