Yea, I'm not clear on what they are on about, as no explanation provided.
Messages, Mail, and Photos makes sense:
Messages: so you can see people's names instead of just phone numbers and Apple IDs.
Mail: So you can see people's names instead of just E-mail addresses.
Photos: So you can see people's names in photos saved from the Messages app.
However, I'm not sure why App Store is using them.
Decided to put this new beta on my IPP 11.
After a few minutes this was the screen. Can’t say I have seen this one before….

For everyone telling me that Hide my Email is in the mail app already in iOS 15.0 and 15.1, it isnt. The screenshots you guys are posting are from the settings app, not the Mail app. Heres an actual screenshot from my Mail app in 15.1, notice it only allows me to send from one of my personal addresses, not a Hide my Email address.
And for comparison, here's how Apple showed it off at WWDC. Notice the mail app on the left while the settings app is on the right. Looks different from my mail app huh?
There you go, the Mail app does not have Hide my Email yet. And to further prove my point, here's Apples page for iOS 15, where in part 4 of the fine print, it says Hide my Email is comping to the Mail app late 2021. https://www.apple.com/ca/ios/ios-15/
My father-in-law got in trouble for calling his phlebotomist dear earlier this evening. I realize you're probably not from the US but I always cringe a little when I see you use it because it sounds very condescending.
You mean to the one person who told you that and posted a screen shot and the others who tried to get you elaborate so we can try and answer your question.
Ahh congratualations. Glad it all went well. I’m still in that first year and I’ve loved every minute of it. Baby boy due Jan - he’s gonna be a creative/developer ???
Wrong! ?
Wish you’d said that in the first place instead of being, well, a bit of ?. People are only trying to help on here, given the limited information in this case, we had to play with buddy. Take it easier next time.
I havent started using it yet as I’m waiting for all the bugs to be ironed out, clearly. I’m sure someone will jump in though and offer a deeper dive. ??
They are probably in there 80s, so we might have to let them off ??

Our older folk in the UK still say it a lot and I think it’s lovely. No one would ever think it’s condescending being called dear by them (well, there will always be some ******** that’s offended by anything and everything of course). Jesus, some people need to get a grip.
Anyway, back on topic, does anybody know if hand washing reminders work yet please and thanks?

Not sure if anyone is aware of this, but if you want to downgrade from 15.2 to 15.1 and use an iCloud backup made on 15.2, it forces you back onto the beta program and doesn't let you restore that backup to 15.1
Thank you for the explanation. It’s well done and explains what you are concerned about. You probably would have saved yourself a lot of grief if you had included some of these details in your first post.
Probably a way around that manually selecting the IPSW instead. ??
Oh dear lord, here we go … ??
I love it. I’m definitely noticing a slight difference to 15.1. Everything feels more polished.
Not noticing any battery drain, if anything it’s better than 15.1 from how I’m seeing it go down. But I’ve had no drain issues at all since iOS 15 beta 1.
I’m on a IP12. I’d give it the green light buddy. ??
At 15.1 betas it was ok with the battery. Somehow it falls faster on the official one. Overnight I can drop 4-10%. My battery condition is still 88%. On 15.0.2 it was great. I'll throw a 15.2 Beta. My fiance have 12 pro max and she hasn't any problem with battery. Thanks.
You know how usually you can't restore from iCloud between major versions. Looks like they're now doing that with minor versions also.
For context, I 'shift+restored' back to 15.1 and then when phone came on and I logged into iCloud, I selected the latest backup and it then said 'in order to restore from this backup you must remain on the developer beta program' so it then updated me back to 15.2 and restored from iCloud.
Hopefully there is a workaround as i'm sure someone will need to take their phone in for service at some point and won't be able to without being on a 'release' version.
