I had to logout and log back in to iCloud to get my reminders syncing again (turning off/on alone wasn’t enough)
Yes the Mac syncs to iCloud but not to other devices. If you turn off Reminders sync in iCloud settings on iOS or iPadOS however, you lose you Reminders on that device and all you get is a little spinning loading icon next to the My List text and that's all it will keep doing. Nothing loads. It's a known and reported issue already. Reminders is totally broken in beta 3 on both macOS & iOS/iPadOS, just in different ways....
Just noticed some new things in the Podcasts app.
Mine syncs to my phone, running this (15.4 b3) beta, and also from the phone back to my Mac. So it's a common, but not universal, issue.
Yeah I saw this yesterday too. Took a screenshot but forgot to post about it.
Yes as I stated in a previous comment. In the Appleseed and Dev Forums for Apple, some people are not affected but the majority are.
Are you running the beta on all your devices or just some? That's the other thing people are trying to figure out because maybe Apple made an iCloud change again, because a lot of us only run a some devices, not all.That could be a reason why also if you're running on all devices and it's working? But people gotta be aware that Reminders is likely gonna break for now. Should be fixed though in next beta as I've seen the amount of reports in the Feedback Assistant. Right now it says More Than 10 on my report.

Oops typed too many zeros, meant more than 10. Fixed now… That’s what happens when you’re typing as soon as you wake up, lol…More than 100? Wow. I've seen "more than 10" before but never "more than 100". I guess I never log common bugs

Thanks! Not yet. I was thinking to do a restore to factory settings - is that the same thing or is a “clean install” doing more/better?
To me the Feedback app is wasting of time because all my reported bugs are staying at „No similar reports“ after years or a few years later with „Fixed with iOS 15“ even if it’s not fixed. I am also writing bugs everyone else has. It’s like I’m on their blacklist or they don’t care. It worked much better with iOS 12 and before.More than 100? Wow.

I’m actually surprised to see the Reminders issue displayed as a reported issue in the Feebback Assistant. Something that doesn’t universally affect everyone frequently never shows as being reported by anyone else. I’ve manually gone back in and cleared my reports of issues that were actually fixed but were never acknowledged, some are years old as you mention.
My experience with Feedback Assistant is sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. But Apple has usually always responded to most of my reports. My Homepod ones hugely during the beginning on the beta cycle last June/July. I think it’s also about how much information you give them also. I usually file from each device if it affects them all and also send screenshots if I can. And I detail explain everything.
It actually got much better for me with the first release of 15.0, but has regressed since then. Hopefully ios 16 will correct most of this.
This is the first time I was ever able to update my phone using the mobile data. The phone has always made me update over WiFi so if this is a permanent feature then I like it.
I wouldn’t hold your breath. We see the same thing every year and with every upcoming version. There’s always been bugs and there will always be bugs.
Follow this mindset and you’ll be disappointed far less often.
I can't say from last beta to this one ... I came from 15.3.1.

Shots taken at 3x zoom are coming in very overexposed compared to 15.3.1 and compared to Halide.
More noticeable with indoor and mid to lower lighting levels.
1x is also overexposed however not as bad.
Update:
Was also testing lens selection: going from 1x to 3x, was is selecting the correct lens or just digital zoom.
When I focus at 1x then switch to 3x, the frame will do a weird jumpy focus. Like it is swapping back and forth between lenses.
Will see if I can get a screen recording of it.
Update 2:
Added screen recording.

Read Messages don’t seem to sync being read across devices. I’ll go to my iPad or Mac and still see the Notification bubble.
