This is the same for me and really annoying as flying today and not showing up at all, Flightradar is actually notifying me but flighty isnt
I reported this issue on the feedback app. Apple have acknowledged the issue and has a potential fix in a future OS update (maybe Beta 4)

did you double check your flight had live activities on in the app? only other thing to try is reintall app.
I believe this is what "collections" is---
"Apple updated the Photos app, merging the Library and For You tabs into a simplified view that focuses on surfacing your best photos and memories. With Collections, it's easy to find photos organized by themes like recent days, trips, and people and pets. Collections can be pinned for quick access to your most used content".

Am I alone in having general swipe hickups in B3? Somehow feels like it's missing a lot more of my swipes. Don't know...might be me. 
It would seem from all the hands on demos yesterday that there is a Beta much further along - and if they are hoping to launch 18.1 in October we must be moving to weekly cycles from now on - holding thumbs for today too as my battery life also not great.
I’ve been traveling so have not been able to follow as closely as normal: what are you seeing in the hands on demos that makes you believe that?
We almost certainly are going to one week betas though.
Yeah I still get a ton of swipe hiccupsAm I alone in having general swipe hickups in B3? Somehow feels like it's missing a lot more of my swipes. Don't know...might be me.
Ha...glad it's not me then. Hoping for B4 soon...in a few hours maybe?
Most of my hiccups occur when trying to swipe up to close an app, and I often have issues tapping target in the upper right corner of the screen…the screen just doesn’t work for several seconds.
Expecting B4 in less than 2 hours…
Is it only me who finds the new home bar interaction to trigger text to Siri quite bad? Activating it is a hit-and-miss, also overloading the home bar with so many behaviours doesn’t seem like a great UX to me.
No, this is cuz I have 2 sims.
The “now playing” sheet of the Music app stopped updating. The widget on the Home Screen shows the actual song and the progress correctly.
I have a question for those who are trying to use Apple intelligence in the EU.
I have tried to change my App Store&iTunes account to a United Kingdom one (when I lived there I had one separate one) and now I have AI working in Hungary.
My question is that if I change it back to my original (where I currently have my Music subscription and other purchases) will it still work, or it will revert back to original Siri?
Has anyone tried it yet?
Thank you so much!

I agree it’s not the greatest experience. But it does usually activate Siri for me without any issues.
I must say that the "new Siri" is not that smart!
Me: (spoken...) "Siri, How much is one hundred times five percent divided by twelve?"
Siri: (shows me...) "How much is 100x5% divided by 12" , with no answer, and then lists a bunch of websites for Fraction Calculator, Long Division Calculator, and a Search Google button!
Me: (spoken...) "Siri, How much is a five percent discount on one hundred dollars?"
Siri: (shows me...) "How much is a 5% discount on $100", with no answer, and then lists a bunch of sites that I can go to for the answer along with a Google Search button.
Ask Siri "What is the fastest way to get to Mexico City from San Diego", and it will give you driving directions in Apple Maps. Ask ChatGPT the same question, and it will give you the "fly" option, and the "fly and drive" option!
Ask Siri "What is the fastest way to get from New York to Rio de Janeiro?", and it says "I didn't find any matching places". Ask ChatGPT the same question, and it tells me to take a direct flight, tells me which airlines offer direct flights, and throws in that I should factor in airport checkin and arrival formalities etc.
I am a huge Apple fan, but they have a long way to go with Siri to meet the AI hype. That said, AI summaries for messages, notifications, and mail are not that bad for beta versions. Hoping that Siri improves soon.

I get this when I ask How much is a five percent discount on one hundred dollars
Exactly what I mean. Kind of embarrassing, if you ask me. Hoping for rapid improvements in upcoming betas.
This is not the new Siri, despite the new appearance. About the only thing they’ve addressed so far is the ability to correct yourself if you misstate something. The other improvements are likely coming in 18.4.
i’ve heard some podcasters state that Apple probably shouldn’t have changed the UI until the major changes were implemented. I tend to agree with them. The UI changes give people the false sense that Siri has been completely improved when clearly it has not been.
Just Changed it back
AI still there
But no warranty. That is seconds ago.
Keep you updated.
