iOS 14 Beta 2 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

Great!

... for you. At least leave it as an option.

I'm sure it's just temporary for them to work out the bugs though.

Yes it should always be there, like it was pre-ios 14. You shouldn't have to learn an extra step to find it, that's not Apple's style

I think you mean it wasn't Apple's style.

The icon for the Library tab at the bottom of the screen is now properly aligned.

For the german members:

„COVID-19 Kontaktprotokoll“ still not available

Fair point

Wallpaper preview now shows widgets properly instead of giant app icons

I’m seeing issues downloading tracks offline in the Music app. Some tracks start downloading and then they just seem to spin and spin and never continue or finish downloading. I know it’s early Still, but this seems like something that should work. Reporting this now, too...

Storage fixed for me

Was this after it settled in or did you see the difference right away? How much was the “other “ at before the update?

Home widget is back in Control Center + slightly updated fonts for home interactions through CC

Better spacing between "+ Add"/"Downloaded" and "..." buttons in the Music app.

iPhone 7 is much more fluid in terms of opening apps. It used to lag a bit earlier. Now it’s all smooth so far.

The release notes have added issues rather than reducing them.
It seems none of the issues being discussed in this forum for beta 1 have been addressed in this beta 2.

How you figure that? Not even posted yet. 🤔

Re App Library: If you long press in a space between the "buckets" of apps, you enter wiggle mode and can delete apps from buckets. Not sure if new for this beta.

“other” issue doesn’t appear to be fixed, at least not after first boot. let’s see how that pans out, if a reset settings or restore is necessary its worth it

You can now delete or add to Home Screen from the App Library!

May just be my eyes but the black lightning bolt on the battery icon while charging looks darker to me.

Home control icons have changed in site in control center. In beta one the "Home Favorites" icon on the left was as big as the right icon is now while the other ones were small.

You can now delete or add to Home Screen from the App Library now!

This was present in beta 1, although it was buggy (sometimes it would come up with those options, sometimes it wouldn't).

 

[internet rabbit]

double post, but... was this in b1? are they referring to Music.app’s animated backgrounds using the art colors or to introducing new, animated cover art??

I never got it to work without going into jiggle mode. Glad it’s working properly...at least for now.

It was already the case on beta 1.

 

[batting1000]

Wallpapers don’t appear to be as washed out as they were on iOS 12, 13, and beta 1, but still not quite there yet. The Lock Screen preview screen on beta 1 had the proper contrast.

So I have been running Beta one for two weeks. Had a problem, as I’m a low vision user, I use voiceover. If you tried to use voiceover with anything that used the Safari browser, or the Safari web viewer, it wouldn’t load. Every single website would crash. It didn’t matter what website it was. Apple‘s website crashed, every single website crashed. I did a clean install of beta one, and it fixed the problem for about 10 minutes, then it happened again. So basically, I haven’t been able to use the web browser for two weeks on my beta test device. Beta two so far seems to have fixed the issue, but I’m still skeptical seeing as it was fixed for 10 minutes on my clean install
