Seemingly absolutely sweet FA. The big features that were touted have all been removed pending further releases so what does this give us? Revised Safari and more bugs than ever.
Well done Apple, you have surpassed yourself.
I’ve given up reporting bugs this round because every single one that I have reported has not been fixed, so I ask myself now what is the point.
I would but I updated my watch already 🙄
Ouch, you need to take it in to an apple store to roll it back too, huh? That sucks.
Exactly, focus that energy on ordering the new iPhone instead 😁
Nah ill just wait for 15.1 beta 1 or 15.0.1 which is only a week or so away
Wondering what has changed with RC.
I now have a handful of apps that will no longer work with my VPN turned on where in beta 8 I only had one.

Hopefully they just need to be updated but I would still not hold my luck. It seems that a 15.1 or 15.0.1 is right around the corner, just like last year with iOS 14. UGH.
Code was finalised for release. This is why Devs need the Xcode RC before they can submit app updates, so they can check there’s no issues.
you should see app updates for those apps shortly.
An RC 2 would only be for the Pegasus fix, and since that hasn’t come today, it lends more credence to my theory, I’m leaning towards Monday’s release will be a new build, that’s got the Pegasus fix.
Aby other fixes will come with 15.1 and onwards.
Apple needs to be considerably financially punished before they learn the importance of quality software instead of just cramming features after each release.
This issue has been present since iOS 12 iirc. iOS 13 and iOS 14 has no improvements. I regularly need to nuke that folder to restore syncing functionality. And yet Apple does nothing to improve it.
I rolled back to 14.8 on my 12Max. I run the beta program on my iPhone SE and iPad Pro all the time to make sure everything works before installing on my daily use phone. I installed the RC directly from 14.8 and it was a buggy mess. The music settings thing was an issue for me but the bigger issue was with Safari. It completely froze up every time there was a login dialog box. Some sites would eventually start responding, some wouldn't. My SE doesn't have these issues (my iPad pro hasn't either) but they both get every update. Seems like there is a big issue with a direct upgrade from 14.8 that is causing problems.
I'm seeing a major bug right now with the RC. If you don't have iCloud enabled for iMessages, you import a photo from a message to photos/iCloud, you delete the image from iMesssage/the conversation with the photo, after 24 hours the photo will be DELETED from iCloud and also removed from your local device photos.
I haven't tried to see what happens with iMessage iCloud enabled, but this is a critical bug. The interesting part is that iMessage will no longer save the photo once imported locally within itself anymore (improvement), however, the fact that the photo is deleted if you delete the conversation and/or photo within the conversation is just insanity. I deal with new phone numbers sending me photos constantly, and so I save the photo to my device, and delete the conversation. If this is intended behavior within iOS15 I don't know i'll be able to stick with iOS/iPhone.

Live Text not working on all four supported devices I updated to iOS iPadOS.
I think some people at Apple should be working in the weekend.

Friday releases happen, but they are quite rare. Not sure it’s happened with an RC (previously GM), though.
Basically, don’t expect it, but nice if it happens.
I’m testing this one out to see if I can replicate.
Trying it from both an iMessage and a standard MMS.
