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

[TimFL1]

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

This has to be the smallest iOS numbered update of all time right?

Lool first time I won't even bother updating when it launches...

Not sure if sarcastic or sincere opinions.

I‘m floored by the SharePlay functionality and Universal Control.
Maps is meh, Messages is as far away from „major upgrades“ status as possible and more in line with a due quality of life update, still no Big Sur style icons and we probably STILL CAN‘T like / dislike movies / TV shows in the TV app to tune recommendations (this drives me insane)!!!

Does it go away if it’s already been saved? Like to keep track on what is already in your photo library

Yes it does.

Apple Music

update: It seems to be working with all songs as well.

Do you have the new settings in Settings > Music regarding lossless?

And this is on my backup phone 6s

I didn’t think iOS 15 would be compatible with the A9 or A8X devices… quite impressive!

Because it’s not a new version it’s a minor update, it’s all based on iOS 14

Collected from reddit: New location status bar icon.

As I go through these comments, I now see why. Nothing impressive by any means. I was really hoping for some nice changes with CarPlay too.

First signs of dark sky being implemented. Weather can now send a notification when it will rain/snow.

There is one change I like. Apps get downloaded to first screen itself.

Yeah a lot of leaks where quite wrong about this iOS update. More of a iOS 14.X update imo. But will see how it will run on the 6s.

No

Can confirm with Airpods Pro, Apple Music is outputting Spatial Audio, can be toggled on/off by playing a song, opening control centre, long press the audio and enable spatial stereo

 

[mujtaba.mir]

Creating a new shortcut has a new UI. Very impressive.

 

[SpaceGrayAlways]

Enabled by default? I definitely haven't changed that setting

I just installed, and have the Magnifier app also enabled by default. I then went into Accessibility and no longer see where to disable it. It's possible they just enabled it as an app rather than a hidden setting. Alternatively, it could be a bug to have it set as default to being on and not have the setting.

The keynote was very bad. Only Home Screen widgets on the iPad where interesting for me. But iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 seem like a very small update. Well. I hope you find more new features and there will be many bugfixes as well.

Lowkey disappointed that the Big Sur icons didn't come to iOS 15

 

[mujtaba.mir]

Settings have a new UI design, very neat.

Thank you...wasn't hearing it when I tried various songs.

Mine was on...still not getting it on iOS14 latest beta...

Apple TV remote has a new interface design.

That would have been nice! I had a lot of hope for this update… I didn’t think it would be as bland as it came out to be.

 

[Donga120]

Please tell me there is a „delete all“ button for iMessage attachments now. Been asking for this for like 5+ iOS generations. Are people not deleting attachments like … I don’t understand how this doesn’t bother people

Unfortunately not.

 

[ZeChild]

Oooh new magnifier app😃

 

[rctneil]

Please can someone check if it's possible to map the Spam or Junk folder to a remote mailbox folder in Mail > Mailbox Behaviors?

 

[MozMan68]

The detail on maps is absolutely absurd. Even the tree icons are mostly accurate to reality.

Pics please!!

I have never felt older (32) than during this keynote because I cannot relate to those app improvements at all. Like why would I ever listen to music with someone over facetime together? That’s just weird to me. Generally I am not much of the „sharing“ type unless it is news articles #old

Dark Sky. Great for the USA, desaster for Europe. Even The Weather Channel is not usable in Germany. They should add more sources like DWD at least.
