iOS 14 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

Do you then restore from a backup or not?

No, i set up as new. Always have done. I realise it’s not necessary but i like to do it for my own peace of mind, I do the same with windows, Mac OS, whatever software I’m using 🙂

Gotta love a new public release with a bunch of broken widgets. Weather is off, Clock is waaaaay off, Apple Music doesn’t update and Reminders sometimes doesn’t even load at all.

It just works.

and Alarm sound is so low doesn't wake you up... but its ready for the world to have LOL

 

[LK265]

I believe they are referring to a post about removing dev profile or keeping it.

Oh, i didn’t read their post in that way, my bad if you’re correct!

 

[kucyk]

yeah because widgets is going to prevent the iphone from really working at all!

It's a full release, should be free from obvious bugs and glitches like that. Don't try to make us to lower our expectations, it's Apple and they charge us premium prices for their products and we have a right to expect better than that.

I do the same! It just feels good to start totally fresh sometimes.

No OS is free of bugs. It should be the best that it can be, but unfortunately more often than not as reality goes pretty much with any business a whole lot of other things come into play beyond just pure quality.

You cannot restore from the ISPW if you want to start fresh. At least not on Catalina. It seems that the OS needs an update first that isn't available from Apple yet. I assume it's possible to restore from the GM version of Xcode 12.

Public beta out too? I had to leave for work right after the event so I didn’t have time to check

 

[Shawzborne]

I’m thinking about doing a clean install, not sure wether it’ll be worthwhile or not but I like starting fresh sometimes.

14.0.1 would probably arrive day after tomorrow 😂

The GM seems to have been released to public beta testers as well as developers.

Just installed GM on my iPhone 11 and iPad pro 10.5.
The Beta app still present on the iPad.

So GM is essentially the same as PB8?

Awesome! I’ll install it when I’m home. Thank you.

Sorry? What do you mean?

If you remove dev profile you won’t get iOS 14.1 14.2 early beta releases

I realise that, thanks.

I don’t get why my download is so effing slow on my wifi today? Gigabit fiber and good router never had this issue before lol. Timer jumps between 1-2 hours for downloading.

sucks I guess I’ll just read the comments and reviews for now

Probably Apple's servers getting hammered by Devs and Public Beta testers, 4GB file for the devices.....

Hahaha. Show me a software release that is bug free. iOS major releases always have some bugs we have to deal with.

So GM is essentially the same as PB8?

Yes, but with all the beta logging, etc removed.

 

[DimaVR]

I’m on gigabit 1000-1000 and it’s still slow says 2-3 hours remaining I never had this issues always 5-7 min to install usually

Splash screen for App Store

Can't you just install the update and then reset the phone as another way of "starting fresh"?

 

[DimaVR]

People that start fresh are just ocd for sure! Only time I start fresh is 3-4 years after getting a new iPhone and that’s it

 

[ghostface147]

Didn't think about that and don't see why that wouldn't work. I guess a restore is just a placebo peace of mind.

 

[theeaglesfan005]

Pokémon GO still crashes at launch 😑

smh at people that told me it would just start working on the GM 🙄

 

[LFC2020]

Installing now 😊 then deleting profile, been a fun beta to test out with you guys.

Anything new in the gm?

I will update the current beta 8 with this IPSW and wait for the next beta cycle to begin. iOS 14 is a good release (at least in the beta cycle).
