Anyone know how to search for text in photos?

Cannot reproduce this on my 11 Pro Max with b5. Tried YouTube and DailyMotion.
There's really not much to it. Take a photo and then select the little icon I point to below:

Some bugs which seemed to be fixed on beta 3, are now again showing up in beta 5.
Is it expected that these bugs fixed earlier, will again get fixed in a later beta like beta 6 or 7?

If you are referring to bugs that have reoccurred in beta 5 that was quashed in beta 3, I would file a report in the feedback app advising what you are seeing. No way to promise anything will be fixed but given that we are still in a beta period, this is the best time to report the issues as they arise.

Apps closing on the slide out multi-tasking all the time, still isn’t fixed. What a bummer lol. Everything else seems to be working for me though (iPad).
Darn,

That was my biggest issue with the last Beta. I’ll have to skip this one until this is fixed.
 
Firefox content blocker needs an update. Makes the back of my phone hot when on and goes away when off. Tried turning back on and it got hot again in about 5 mins on this forum.
Similar experience with my iPad… it gets hot as well. Have you tried a different content blocker? Firefox seems to be the best at the moment.
 
I can’t believe they’re actually going through with the new Safari. I’m just not going to upgrade my iPhone and iPad for as long as possible. I’ve never done this before.
I sympathasise with you. Problem is that as soon as we buy the next gen. watch, AirPods, iPhone or iPad we are stuffed.

I’m leaning more towards it’s the forum. Played around a bit earlier with it off, did the update and thought it was helping, but on or off phones getting hot being on here.

Will probably get flamed for this... but I´ll take my chances.

I usually jump on a beta at the end... late august or so, just before the public release. Is it worth it on PB5 or should I wait? Gonna use it as a daily driver but not a heavy user... just music, texts and calls.

I don’t think you’ll get flamed, at least I hope not, but what I would say is if you have to ask the question you should probably not be on the beta.

Other than that, back up your phone and give it a go, take your chances.

I think you should be fine. Just make sure to make a backup before jumping to the beta

I’m no stranger to the betas, but I often jump on the train late in the program. Small bugs that are acceptable during a late beta… fine.

Have read the thread since the beginning. Is it me or has there been a much more wide spectrum of bugs in 15? Some has this bug and some don’t… some bug for one guy and 100 others don’t. Do I make sense?

Yes but most have done a hard reset or installed and reset all settings and have fixed a lot of the one off issues.. there are a handful of bugs that we are all having that didn’t get fixed with a reset.. you read through the post you know what they are. I’m enjoying this iOS personally

The “nickname notification” bug has caused me to delete all nicknames from my contacts. I think I only had about five contacts with assigned nicknames, solely for the purpose of tagging them in iMessage threads, but still. Blah.

Two things I’ve noticed since the beginning of iOS 15, so if you don’t have ether, I’d jump in as it’s been really stable for a beta on my 12 main device, is…

1. Pro Max ‘seem’ to have more problematic bugs than other models

2. HSBC or FIRST DIRECT banking apps don’t work, yet, on ios15.

Back up to your computer, then your safe and can always restore back to this no matter what, and go for your life.

so it’s the content blocker, not forum. @LFC2020
So looking forward to all these adds 😆😂

EDIT: Firefox update just come out. 👍🤞🏼
Update Didn’t work
Was going to tell you a update is available for focus 🤦‍♂️😂 Looks like it's the forum that's the problem again. 😡
