am I being delusional or does it seem like the closing/swiping app away gesture on iPhones with Face ID is longer/takes more finger "movement" in B2?

It does to me. Mind you, I like that, as I would easily accidentally swipe out of apps a lot.

You actually had a failed attempt? Yikes. Glad to say I haven't had that! But with another 2020 SE user on here...I'd definitely lean towards device specific issue. I just sent Feedback about it. I mentioned in it that I did NOT end up losing any data in the process.

And for what it's worth...when I got my SE and had to update to the latest public release...I didn't have this issue with it.

Haha it's this kind of stuff that's keeping me from putting the beta on my Mac! My SE is my daily use phone, but if something goes wrong, I can deal with that. I'm willing to take the risk on my daily use phone. The amount of important stuff on it is so small that the risk is pretty much a non-issue for me. My MacBook, however, is also my daily use...but I use it at work. Can't risk anything going wrong there! Like my phone, the important stuff I need is in iCloud. But for the MacBook, I need the stability that you can't be guaranteed to have on the beta.
Yeah, that failed attempt the first time freaked me out and I thought my SE was toast. Was much relieved after a hard reset and another attempt worked and everything was back to normal. Same exact thing today. I do have a back up phone so I wasn’t overly concerned but I didn’t wanna ruin the SE either
 

So is there like a widget store or something

It's an actually app from a developer, and not an Apple 'widget'. Been using it for a couple of years...
 
Is this new(buttons lower than before)?

My large Weather Widget is borked (FB7863412).

Thys *may* have happened in B1 but I noticed my phone got thrown off my WiFi network soon after rebooting with B2 and I had to click to rejoin it. No problems rejoining except ... the "private address" option had enabled itself and hence my router didn't give me the IP address I usually get, as it didn't recognise the MAC address.

Yeah. I don't touch my primary Mac with betas, particularly early betas. I do things that matter on it. The same goes with my one and only Apple Watch (at least for early betas).

The new SE recovered and booted into iOS 14 DB2. I then successfully reset it, and it's currently on the last stages of a data transfer from another iPhone.

How can you use the public beta, it’s not even out...?

Did they fix the Smart Battery Case issue with no websites loading? Weird thing is it doesn't happen on my wife's, and the only difference is color.
