[greg624]

Frequent emojis is back, but also the big emoji picker stayed. Do we know if beta 6 also switched to the big emoji picker?

Installing on 15PM is taking forever!

I just installed iOS18.1db2 and it seems that now AI is here in EU (Romania) or it's just a bug.

Now in Settings it says that i joined the waitlist and i'll be notified when it's ready!

Can't believe!!!

They aren't in 18.1 beta 2. I wouldn't expect them to be in 18.1 at all. I'd anticipate that everything AI related in 18.1 is all that will be available in 18.1.

Microsoft app icons now showing a dark mode version for me! Actually quite a few that weren’t in 18.1 b1 and 18.0 b4 are now dark.

Distracting items is in 18.1 Beta 2.

 

[greg624]

honestly right away not noticing many changes from this build other than what was already done in beta 5.

Not seeing them. Sadly.

Maybe later in the betas.

no loophole the join button just appeared

A little disappointing that "Hide Distracting Items" doesn't detect distractions automatically. Maybe it's because I already block ads super aggressively or something.

Beta 6 on my iPad Pro doesn't show icons on the home screen when they are offloaded. Hoping that is not an issue on my iPhone 15 Pro Max on 18.1b2.

ITS WORKING !!!!!!! Apple Intelligence in EU (Romania)!

Just got it after 10mins on waitlist.

Interesting development…… or bug.

Seems smoother so far. 18.1 b1 was pretty buggy for me.

Can anyone test Waze in CarPlay ? if you can report and use the screen?, I had to go back to 18.0 because Waze was not working in CarPlay, I will like to go back to 18.1, thank you

It’s cos it doesn’t know what you’d consider distracting.

It’s for user to decide, like some sites have auto play videos that someone might not want in the page, etc.

Frequently used emojis now are being retained.

Finally! Now I may install. Yes, I'm being serious. This has held me back.

Btw, I turned off the iPhone and the music stopped playing with a fade out. First time I am noticing this.

 

[dannyyankou]

This is new...

 

[nortonandreev]

So jealous of those who managed to get the Apple Intelligence in Europe…

 

[s2mike]

This fixes my biggest issues…

• Now Playing platter no longer sits too high on the Lock Screen and covers part of the album art

• Recent emoji section is updating properly

You do have English (United States) set to language. This might be one of the reasons you've got it.
