I like the Weather widget and how it’s dynamic like the app, but I wish when It was cloudy it didn’t look so dull... cos living in the UK it’s like that a lot and it’s not a great look for the home screen 
Got a tip for us?

I saw it on the first day or so (PB1 on iPhone 11) and thought maybe it was my memory. But I guess they move around based on app usage.
Fortunately haven't had those on 3 yet, but I had a faulty messages badge, which gladly was fixed by a restart. Unclearable badges are by far my most hated nuisance bug.Welp, my "Update Payment Information" nag has returned on my 11 Pro so I'm back to having a persistent badge on my Settings app.
I just downloaded iOS 14 Beta 3 from 13.6 and Sky Go works right off the bat. Their beta doesn’t seem to be required....
I hate that. As soon as I get used to an app being in a certain spot, it changes.
On my iPhone XS Max, iOS 14 have many annoying bugs for me. Widgets are completely useless for now. After a short period of time after reboot, music and rather app simply not working anymore and sometimes, some widgets disappear from the widget section like before and had to re-add them.
Also, like I said earlier, Shortcuts automations are completely bugged for me as well. It only work the first time after a reboot and then it stops working until I reboot again and the switches to activate them or not on the shortcuts apps are also completely bugged and not accurate.
So all in all its an okay update, but I didn't expected so many irritating bugs like that when I read everyone was surprised with the beta. For me so far, it was as bugged as iOS 13 beta was. for now.

hmmm trying to figure out if its worth upgrading from beta 1 to beta 3...lol.. beta 1 has still be rock solid for the most part
Didn’t see this mentioned on the wiki but Music now remembers the last play position and play head timeline position. Before it would always forget and it would even forget the song it was on at times.
I think everyone’s problem with this is a conceptual one. This is not a Java script or HTML clock. It’s a series of images that are updated at intervals (ok, so are the orders, but not, I think, in the same way). The widgets, which are just static images, rely on timelines to update. The clock just has a very short timeline (possibly 1/10th of a second or less, so the motion of the second hand is fluid). Clearly they are having issues with the timeline, the resolution of which in different scenarios may have been the entire point of including this widget during this beta.
Wow is anyone else's beta 3 going downhill fast? b2 was very stable. I can't use spotlight, the screen blurs but there is no space for typing or even a keyboard. Widgets are all screwed up, firstly it took away all my widgets, and now I can't delete widgets from inside a smart space. Phone is freezing in weird places, earlier today adding a photo to a text message, sending email, adding a widget, etc., just freezing and even force closing the app doesn't help as when I reopen it it's still frozen. Adding widgets the +/done signs are now under the title bar and I can't press them. Long pressing for widgets is inconsistent, sometimes half a second and the edit screen pops up, sometimes it doesn't pop up at all.
Public Beta 1 (Beta 2) was pretty smooth for me. Beta 3 has this weird bug where trying to add the battery widget to my iPad sidebar causes it to crash and reboot, and the option to edit my existing widgets is still missing. Otherwise, haven't really notice anything out of the ordinary, and my apps still run fine.
iPhone 11 xs max, are you from the future.😳😂
On a serious note, no issues here PB1 & PB2 on my xs max.
This is why force closing an app on iOS is useless, cause it has no effect except maybe resource hogging applications like games.
I had a number of these issues and a restart got things back on track. No guarantees on that however for you or if its even a permanent fix for me.
Anecdotally, my clock widget has been spot on all day long. Suddenly, it's 2 hours behind. Not at all concerned about it... just sharing my experience.

No worries... but be advised that the next beta that you install will be a full download (>3GB). You only get the delta from the previous beta. Once you skip, you have to download the full beta OS.
