Try to find a place where it’s raining right now. The heavier the better. See if you can see the animation when you try to add the city in the Weather app.

I have made a number of same feedback to apple via the app in our beta… seriously hope they will have an answer in beta 2
I have tried a thunderstorm weather conditions still the same … no droplets animation effects, the rainwater just fall behind the chart
Don’t give up hope, though. The OS should become more optimized by release and right now there are many logging and other diagnostics running, which would tax an older phone.
My 6S (which I re-installed as it only has 16 GB of RAM and I took the nuclear option to remove all the "other" storage) is working well. No crashes, performance same as iOS 14 (which was better than iOS 13) and battery life ... well, that's not so good but that doesn't bother me this early in a beta cycle.

I may have missed that post ahh! Thanks for lettting me know
Small correction/nitpick, it has 16GB of flash storage, not RAM.
Damn…now I can’t stop looking at the weather app. Not only do they have sunise/sunset colors when applicable, the sun actually changes position across the top of the app depending on what time of day it is.
- Do the old widgets still work? Yes
- Are the iOS 13 Widgets still „dumb“ and not live? Yes
- Why die the Apple weather app never show the dew point? No idea
16gb ram 😱 where can I get one of these bad boys? Looks like Tim Cook is up to his old tricks again, next he’ll give it the M1 chip as well. 😂
strange. I have a 6S, 11 and 12 Pro Max and I think the 6S is handling it actually pretty awesome
It has the M2, and runs MacOS. It's difficult to use on a 4.7" screen, but it drives four external 4K monitors so I'm good.
I hope they add a way to turn the home bar visuals off one day. Not because it bothers me, but because I‘m pretty tired of seeing your posts about the home bar 24/7. At least the blank Messages bar user has a legit concern. I hope you flood them with requests for this at least once every beta cycle though.
Don‘t forget the obligatory „first time reboot“ after your phone did all the heavy lifting on day 1. My test iPhone 7 was slow as heck with loads of apps not launching until I did a reboot. Has been smoothish ever since.
Can you place the today view widgets that haven’t been updated with the new user interface like ESPN anywhere on the iPad home screen?
Disappointing how these big companies
still haven’t updated the design of their widgets. 🤦♂️
Can’t unlock my phone with my Apple Watch today. Turned on and off unlock with Apple Watch and rebooted both devices and didn’t fix, waiting for beta 2 on both devices.
Pertaining to the raindrops bouncing animation effects in weather app in ios 15 beta 1. I finally found out that under setting , accessibility , display n text size , larger text. At the bottom scroll must be set at default - meaning in the Center in order to activate the rain droplets to appear. And of course iPhone with A12 chip above. Please comments
Yep, that did it. Good find. Also correct a couple of display issues with single words that split to two lines.
