How about them misspelling "optimize"? That's sloppy.

US of A spelling

Also widgets using location such as Weather and Maps now provide a prompt to allow location tracking which I think is also new?

wonder what this looks like if you don’t use AM or PM in your language

Calendar widget has gone from black background to grey

Yes. Bummer. I wish they all would be black. Improves readability, and lets the edges fade into the black of my wallpaper.

Don’t know if this is iOS 14 specific, but TestFlight has a new icon

The Tesflight App Icon changed with the last update from yesterday for all users.

Woot so time picker back, and alarm going to current time fixed, and no more recovery on SE2020!

Now what about messaging and settings badge bugs?

Minor bug on the XS Max, but when 3D touching app icons and links, there’s a delay in the haptic feedback.

oh my

I’ve been having an issue where a pinned text group goes missing on one iDevice, and then when I add it back (and not until I do so), it disappears from my other iDevice. Back and forth.. reported it under beta 4, but seems to still be an issue for me.

Never had an issue with the badge on Messages, but the "1" I had on Settings is gone!

It seems as if there’s bigger spacing before the Recently Added section.

To address the "new issue" on the Wiki post about the sun in the Weather widget being dark orange...that is NOT something I can confirm. For me, it's the same color it's always been.

Clock widget bug looks to be fixed, they're all in sync now.

Contact photos on the Share Sheet now also appear where before they were missing.

Probably tomorrow

Beta 5 has broken my streak of my 2020 SE entering recovery mode while updating! Hallelujah!

Such a relief! Also noticed the phantom settings badge is no longer a pita

 

[itsmilo]

Minor but has the font of „Time“ (Zeit) always been so small? It’s just randomly floating there in yet another font size. My UX heart just wants to cry.

also this seems new? Hence the missing localization

Calendar widget has gone from black background to grey

Didn’t notice till I read this now I can’t unsee it. 😂
Rather it was as before

That is how we spell it in the UK.

Man the animated artwork isn’t working for me in music even though I have it on and currently connected to wifi.
