No, not two separate issues, just two different ideas about how to solve the same issue!

You think it’s ok to test out on a daily driver? I did that last year with 13 and had no issues...at least on my iPhone.
Most of the new features, such as widgets, are still broken. What is more, many banking apps don’t work. Depends on what your usage is and what needs you have.
Oh well if widgets are broken then I won’t be installing. Or I’ll wait to see what others who are braver than I experience.
I used Beta 1 on my daily and had no real issue. Then tried and Removed beta 2 and went back to 13 because too many things broke between 1 and 2.
I have zero proof of this, but I think the Other storage section is used for moving files around during an OS upgrade. I keep a hefty amount of downloaded music on my iPhone, and I've noticed the Other storage has been close to what my downloaded music space is using. I'm just trying to reach outside of the box here, but again, have no way to prove any of this.. You know how when you upgrade a Windows OS it'll put a Windows.OLD folder on your C: Drive?
IPP 11 G2
RAM
I’ve been playing with RAM management and seeing if there has been any initial improvements over what I saw in 13.x
Have been running into issues where I will have a number fo apps in the task manager (>10) and I’ll open one of the apps and it freezes. I do not know if it is the app itself (my initial thought) but have been finding if I go into the task manager and kill a bunch of listed apps, usually the stuck app will start working.
Have seen the issue this morning with SpectrumTV, MSWord, PDF Expert, ProCamera

Running into apps working differently between IPP 11 and ProMax - both on beta 2
Latest: Citi Bank
ProMax - app claims it won’t run on a jailbroken device
IPP 11 - app runs just fine

Wow I’m surprised Apple would release a public beta if so many things are broken. Aren’t public betas supposed to be stable for the most part?
public beta is still a beta
what are you even talking about? Beta is Beta man!
Closest thing I've had in DB to a major issue was the Cellular not working once, but a restart cleared it, and it hasn't returned. Otherwise it's weird widget stuff and the other, but the other hasn't stopped me from doing anything yet. Someone said they got a low space error, but didn't say if it actually stopped them from doing anything. Two things I had in DB1 cleared in 2 were the Smart Battery Case Internet Issue and that crash on Review Large Attachments.
It's still a beta release, so not everything will be 100% working. Sometimes developers will have a public preview release that is largely feature complete and bug-free, but that is different from a beta release.
I get that it’s still a beta but I assumed they would wait on the public beta until it was more stable knowing that a lot more people are going to be installing the public beta.
I went from 5gb to over 66gb, “other” us more than double my existing data. Could be a duplicate plus the download maybe. But I doubt it.
huh?

Why not go back to beta 1?
Ok, you are lobbying against "cheap speakers". But "cheap speakers" have nothing to do with Apple limiting (or removing the limit for) max volume. Either Apple gives us a choice, or they don't. Whether the speakers are studio monitor quality or "cheap speakers" is immaterial to the discussion. Because they removed the max volume limit, does that mean that they will improve the quality of the speakers? You built a straw man argument and then tore it down. Well done. Now, can we talk about the issue of users having responsibility for controlling their environment?
Apple is making y'all choose. Thought choice was good?
Had a good backup of 13 ready and available and didn’t have readily available way to go back simply to B1.
It’s been mentioned before, the storage bug is most likely a reporting error in iOS.
Here’s my phone in my Mac
And my phone
So adding the system amount back to the total reported in the Mac , to get to approximately the 64GB of my phone results in approx 34 GB available. Subtract the 11GB iPhone says is available and the result is roughly the same as what’s listed in other on the phone
Hopefully this makes sense, ultimately the storage is there and as been reported, available if you load up several large apps. If I recall correctly, iOS 13 had the same issue and it was resolved during the beta cycle.
