Anyone here having issues not receiving text notifications via screen light up and sounds? This has been re-occuring for me since beta 7. Now with 8, if I unlock the phone, the notification is present but if I send a test text, the phone won't make noise or light up. Reported again.

Use only the 5w adapter, charge only when needed, kept it between 15-90%, very few overnight charge (only time it reaches 100% charge), no wireless/fast charging, don’t use optimized charging, rarely let it die at 0%, kept it cool as I am

Vitamins everyday, protein shakes on workout days.

Meh I don’t care tbh. I get the new phone every year

That seems like a lot of effort. I used to obsess over battery life, now I just charge it whenever I get the chance. I did stop the overnight charges though.

Had this issue for a few texts in the previous beta and it just happened in this beta

Not so much but I don’t stress on it, just charge it whenever low or whenever need a top up if I’ll be out without a charge and use a shortcut automation to notify me whenever it reach 90 and 100% to unplug the charger. Main takeaway is just avoid fast/wireless that produce too much heat

It’s much easier to just pay the $79 or less for the battery replacement after 2 years instead of constantly having to pamper a phone. One less thing to worry about.
 
B8 bugs I’ve seen so far on my 12 Pro Max -
  • Storage bug (system data shows zero kb, photos storage is fine)
  • Siri can’t toggle noise cancellation settings (transparency + turning off anc included).
  • Some photos file names are misaligned in the info panel in the photos app (does not affect all photos, but still a considerable amount).
  • News widget disappears after updating the phone.
  • Contacts widget set in the today view resets to family members on Apple account after updating the phone (as opposed to remembering the set contacts).
  • Siri does not report battery level on Apple Watch or AirPods Pro.
  • App Store update page jumpy when you check for updates.
  • (Minor bug) in the music app, if you press the button to select the output source (Airplay button), and then tap anywhere to close it, the status bar blinks for a second.
  • (Minor bug) the click sound that happens when you press the torch or camera button on the Lock Screen stops working if you activate a live wallpaper (it only happens if a live wallpaper is activated, until it is activated, the sound works). The sound starts working again once you unlock and lock the phone

    Reported all of the above on the feedback app.
 
Signing out and back into the App Store fixed the stutter for me. 👌
Doesn‘t work here, still jitters around.

Memory management for Safari seems to be all over the place. Tabbed out of Safari into the App Store app to try the sign out suggestion, once I returned it reloaded this page…

No jitters since signing out and in this morning, haven’t had a issue yet with ram management, safari is definitely a lot quicker when scrolling, or maybe I’m seeing things. 🤔🧐📱😂

I have been using wireless charging almost exclusively since i11 and now i12, my battery life is still 100%. I only charge through cable when I'm using carplay.
 
It actually started working on the app update prior to the app update that came out 5 days ago. We had about 10 days or so of a HSBC app version that worked.

HSBC don’t have to officially do anything until iOS 15 RC is released.

't is the sad truth😢
 
To anyone circlejerking it over battery life:

No, your iPhone does not still have 100% health after a year of use. The health percentage is a mere estimate with unpredictable and sporadic calibrations (that are literally estimates too, you can‘t just look at a battery and check the health like that). It‘s perfectly normal to lose 10% or more in a year of use because these batteries are organic material that degrades with every charging and use cycle.

I wish Apple would just kill the percentage all together and add only keep a plaintext label „Good, Bad“ etc based on natural degradation.

You must have missed @Banglazed Coconut Battery screenshot post showing his battery is in fact at 100% capacity of it’s original with regards to mah.

I know it’s going over an old topic but my storage has been right until Beta 8, I’ve got 89.06gb of photos stored on my phone but I have optimise them I can save 93.32gb?!

He works out!

Oh ok, no over night charging, I’m very guilty of that one. Thanks buddy, interesting. 👍🏼
 
Is YouTube still lagging or stuttering in 60fps videos on iPhone 12s on iOS15?
