Yes I’ve been getting it on my lock screen but also as a temporary banner if I’m using the phone as well
Thanks for the reply. If you don’t need WatchOS 7, this must be a bug I am seeing.
This indicator when I connect my AirPods (or even to my car via Bluetooth) is new (I think)
Yes... I sadly have discovered it too! Too bad, I've hoped for a moment that it could be possible (as it was possible on iTunes once) to rearrange the various home screens... but not... it is only for adding screens to App Library and have apps "disappear" from you phone and be available only in app library ... pity!
I don't have WatchOS7 and I am not seeing it either.
Most (all?) of the widgets don't update properly. It probably doesn't bother working out your "current location" for 15-30 minutes. The stocks widget is the easiest to identify, as the values in each widget, and the Stocks app itself, are all different!
It took most of my widgets around 15 minutes to realise a schedule change to dark mode had taken place. If I toggle dark mode manually they work fine, but the automatic toggle didn't get picked up.
If I create a calendar event on my laptop, it gets synced immediately to icloud.com (as expected) but my calendar widgets don't pick it up. Creating an event on the phone itself is fine.
I'm hoping the next beta improves this. MacOS 11 has the same problem.
I'm happy with the fact you can now add multiple schedules for different days. Never understood why "bed time" didn't have that in iOS 13, seems the feature is maturing in iOS 14.
I changed it from Current Location to my actual location and it's been fine since Monday. I know that Current Location its broken in the Weather Widget on both MacOS & iOS. It took a little bit to update though.
GPS and location related things always seem to break in early betas. In iOS 12, my GPS was very badly affected up until about beta 5 and then the problem (if it was a problem) was fixed. Until then, my CarPlay maps were useless as it showed me driving way off the road I knew I was on. It was an awful experience.
I say “if it was a problem” because users tend to forget that the betas are a test bed. Apple may intentionally disrupt a feature in order to work out issues elsewhere, or for any number of other reasons, as they test the software.
Yea fooled with it again, and enter is definitely better if it is the first app. Now if the one you actually want isn't first but still showing on the list, it's a tossup if it is faster to type more of the name then enter or to just tap the app on the list. For me I type fast so I'm probably better just typing the rest and enter.

I wonder if the next time it reminds you of a holiday, it will prompt to skip the alarm? Even cooler would be a way to add days to skip since I know what days we will have off well in advance.

The Met office app has flashed up some for Thunderstorms in the UK (due to the back end of a heatwave @ 33 degrees Celsius where I am!), but the Stock one didn't flag it up.
Are you thinking bug? Or just not active yet? There's no active weather alerts for my area right now, so I don't have the opportunity to find out if it works. That opportunity will come later today. Tornadoes are a possibility!
Maybe I'll get a feedback report going now and keep it as a draft until later. If there's any weather alerts that the stock app doesn't show, I'll send the report. If it works...I won't bother. I must say, it's one of the features that I would rather NOT have the opportunity to learn if it works or not 😂 What I HAVE been able to test out so far is the graph for rain over the next hour. It's been spot on!
Is this a little thing? It probably is for many people. For me it's a big thing, as it even writes to EXIF fields.

iOS 14 Lets You Add Captions to Photos
Apple's iOS 14 update adds several new features to the Photos app, including an option to add captions to images right from the iPhone, which is something that Photos users have been wanting for quite some time. The Photos app for Mac previously supported captions through the Description...

Does the new iPadOS offer the ability to check battery health status like you can with the iPhone? I don’t recall Apple mentioning that.
No. You just get the usage and the option to turn off/on the numerical percentage.
That is disappointing. Maybe Apple will add that feature at some point.

I haven’t seen any notification. Oh, well. Maybe that will change as we go through the betas.
The weather app now has a color coded slider looking graph for air quality.
I believe the thinking at Apple is that the battery on the iPad is so large and the device is not potentially life-critical that is not necessary to do this.
