So maybe a noob thing but I am in Canada and after updating to this beta I went into Apple AI switched to English United States on that screen and then joined the waitlist. I just got Apple AI and went through the setup. My Language and Region is still English Canada. I thought the articles I read said I had to change that?

Maybe beta 3 added Canada. I’m in Canada and with beta 1 and 2 I had to set US English in region settings.
 
Now seeing a badge number for the summarized Mail messages. Was that there before?

Also, in the "not sure if it was there before" department, if I'm in Messages and select the Emoji button, then tap into the Search Emoji text box, I get a single row of emoji (that looks like it is the recently used emoji). Is that new?

It's not new. I've been seen it since the early stages of beta.
 
New Music app top tab bar on iPad when you close the sidebar. Customisable.

Animations when opening playlists and albums on both iOS and iPadOS. Slick.

Just updated to 18.1 b3 on my 15 Pro. The Messages app is still freezing when I open it, just like it did on b2. It freezes until it crashes. Eventually after maybe 5-10 minutes it sometimes starts working, at which point it works normally until the next time the app does a fresh start, at which point it becomes totally frozen again. Can't even scroll.

I believe it was extended to any form of English during beta 2.

Reader is there, not here in the forum that I could see. Went to an article and tried, and it was there

Sounds like they've got it set so that Reader mode appears only on pages where it is mostly text.
 
I’m surprised that apps like Podcasts, TV and Health don’t have the top tab?, I also find it odd that Podcasts doesn’t rename Browse to New like Music does considering that they usually mirror the changes.

New. It was there last beta though. It’s the AI summaries showing you how many notifications it’s summarized.

Does anybody else think the lock screen widgets are larger font in beta 3? It may be my eyes only..
 
It seems that Siri doesn't work offline, just like other Apple intelligence features such as email summaries. Is it the same for you?
