Slow WiFi Speeds!

Hey, everyone! Do you all have slower-than-normal WiFi speeds? I’m on the ios18.1.2 betas on both my iPad (4th Gen) and iP15PM, and the speeds are just not like they were with ios17.

I’ve tried resetting network settings and everything. Not sure what the issue is. My speeds on non-beta devices are just fine, super fast.

Thoughts?

TY!

Not great, but not terrible. My download did take something like three hours, though that was on both wifi and cellular.

Edit: went out for a smoke and did much better on my patio.

pissed off the recent call log menu got rid of the requiring you to hit the arrow to view the profile to intentionally call the contact. ive misdialed so many times accidentally tapping a recent call in the list. that was a great improvement they took out for beta 2.
 
Is this more or less as with the beta 1?

Yes.

It’s obvious that the “old” LLM model that came with beta 1 wasn’t removed right away when beta 2 was installed, but only after the second LLM model was downloaded, post-install.

They probably did this so there would be no loss of service of the Apple Intelligence tools prior to the second LLM being installed.
 
Is there anyone else experiencing light sensitivity issues with swiping up from the bottom? I’m not sure if it has anything to do with the tap to open type to Siri for Apple Intelligence. But more than half my swipe ups or swipe left/right don’t register.

Yes, same issue. Light sensitivity across the whole OS seems a bit off.

What do you mean by “light sensitivity”? Do you mean sensitivity to photons? Or do you mean it’s registering with a light (i.e., unheavy) touch?
 
True Tone seems to be bugged. Not sure if this has been mentioned before and I'm not going to check.

I noticed my screen looked awfully blue/bright and I had to disable then re enable True Tone. This was also present on the previous public beta. Persists on the current beta.

Also happening on macOS beta with M3 Air for me too.
 
What would be the reason that a new iPad's entire contents are being backed up to iCloud when other backups are "normal" size?

Edit: I deleted the backup, turned iCloud back up off, force restarted, and backed up again and everything is normal. 5.3 GB.

Yep. I also think it’s related to the Type to Siri feature.
 
Be aware of a new issue I’m seeing with Wi-Fi. We use Meraki APs here at the office, and for our guest Wi-Fi, we provide a username and password. On beta 2 when entering my saved credentials in iCloud, it crashes and does not connect. I did not see this on beta 1.

I use Comp Portal in my job, but since upgrading, I haven't been able to connect to their Wifi.
