iOS 15 Beta 1 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

The radar in the weather app is weird. I don’t know where the blue color scheme came from, but I’m used to green, yellow, orange, red for the radar.

Is there a way to edit the contacts on the contacts widget? It seems to pull and suggest which contacts to put in the widget for me. But I want to edit it. To put specific contacts on the widget.

Edit the widget, kind of like the Weather widget

Has anyone checked to see if there is a way now to toggle off shortcut notifications so that annoying banner doesn’t pop up at the top if you are using custom icons?

Nice little effect in the wallet app when passes are selected, it turns off "True Tone" and makes the card much brighter

I also noticed when turning off the “Shortcuts” notifications in Screen Time, you don’t have to wait the 45 seconds or whatever you used to have to before.

Did you change the radar to precipitation instead of temperature radar

According to the release page on Apple's website, the selected cities will get the real rendered updates on environmental items, but the road details should be available everywhere.

Detailed new city experience - Explore cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, and London with unprecedented detail for elevation, roads, trees, buildings, landmarks, and more.3

New driving features - An all-new driving map helps you see traffic, incidents, and other details that affect your drive at a glance. See incredible road details like turn lanes, bike, bus, and taxi lanes, medians, crosswalks, and much more. When approaching a complex interchange, Maps switches to a 3D road-level perspective to help you find your way.

I checked St. Louis, the maps do not show those details.

I wish there was a way to have this default to precipitation, rather than temperature.

Wait… so I have to pay 0.99/mo for Private Relay even though I’m already paying for Apple One Premier? Am I missing something?

Seems to be a glitch. Force restart and it’d show up.

I suspect that if there's rain in the area, it will default to precip....

We have a chance of rain tomorrow, so I should be able to check.

You know what we want to know!

(And I’m just catching up now)

Hey mate, if you wouldn’t mind keeping me updated on how battery life is going, since I don’t have a developer account. 😃👍

Have to install it first!

No, I’m saying it shows up fine… it’s just saying I have to pay 0.99/mo for it. The Hide My Email is active. AOP is the highest tier of anything they offer - I shouldn’t have to pay for Private Relay (I thought)… may sit that part out until there’s clarification or a fix.

Same here. After a hard reset the option is active.

This is more like a point release of iOS 14, I haven’t been this disappointed in years, apple didn’t even try this year

Agreed, nothing I’m really looking forward to.

some okay features, and even that is US exclusive

Hi. I’m sorry to ask as I’m willing to test it. Does Outlook, Teams working ok? Thank you

Safari update. Something that may end up being hotly debated, the address bar has moved to the bottom of the page.
It's nice having a clean look up there, but it's weird having the address float at the bottom of your page. And it does an annoying switcheroo to the top of the screen when you tap it.
Hmmmmmm.

This is a feature I see multiple changes being made to. Cool idea, rushed implementation.

I have the 200GB iCloud on my account and a restart fixed it. Yours is probably a server side bug if a hard reset doesn’t fix it. File a bug report.

I have the 200GB iCloud on my account and a restart fixed it. Yours is probably a server side bug from the looks of it. File a bug report.

Yeah, it’s something weird. Shows as “On” on my iPad Pro; says “Upgrade” on my phone. After full reboot. 🤣

This sounds good… didn’t get a mention in the WWDC. Built in password Authenticator. Be gone google. This will auto paste a code in. Boom

iOS 15 Includes Built-In Password Authenticator With Autofill, Replacing Google Authenticator and Authy — MacRumors

There are a slew of new features in iOS 15, so many in fact that Apple did not have time to cover all of them during today’s keynote event.

apple.news

What you are noting is something people need to remember with these early betas: probably only about 20 to 30% of the features that iOS 15 is introducing were actually presented during the keynote. In addition other features will probably appear in the first 3 to 4 betas.

Prepare for New iPhone is a great addition for the older folks out there! This will save my parents and grandma much time.

Tbf, now iPhones can direct transfer between each other using p2p connection, wouldn’t that be even better than iCloud?

CarPlay still takes over the whole page when someone calls, they could of at least changed it like iOS to make a banner, there’s zero CarPlay improvements, it’s annoying when someone calls maps goes

Anyone able to find true Dolby Atmos tracks on Apple Music?

In Safari, you can pinch and all your open tabs will display. If this is old, I did not know. If it’s new, then cool! Like the iPad now.
