None. But folks reported there is a new Create Emoji button (that's inactive). So even if they arern't working on that important health feature, you gotta love that they are working on emoji's. 🙄 I'm glad there is an "eye roll" emoji so that I correctly show my lack of love for emoji. LOL
Perhaps it’s just new to my carrier (Metro [TMO MVNO] v59.5.1) but I just noticed this toggle for RCS Business Messages in the new 18.1 beta.
I still have another hour for 11.1 b2 on my series 10, I'll post here once I update though
HUGE Safari Favorite miniatures and HUGE Emoji keyboard are still there 🤡
Edit: But I see they fixed Polish Translation for Case of having 3+ reminders in Calendar in the same time.
Previously “2 inne osoby” now it’s “2 inne” which is correct as it’s not 2 other people but 2 other (reminders).
Nice.

I just jumped on the 18.1 train on my 15 Pro Max. I can't click the "Join Waitlist" for Apple Intelligence. It won't register. Anyone else?
Going to jump on it now. Feel like we are close enough I can give it a whirl on the 16 Pro.
On my 16 Pro Max, Apple Intelligence and is 2.6GB and on my M4 iPad Pro it’s 2.54GB. I wonder if the visual intelligence feature is added but not enabled?
still not seeing sleep apnea support
Edit: Crossing my fingers watchOS 11.1 beta 2 will add it 🤞
Nope. Incredibly annoying to be on the latest beta and not have the latest features, particularly considering the distinct lack of those this year in general.
No intelligence on my phone (just the usual dumb iPhone-11 Siri) but this beta's running very well.
Nice to get the shortcut icons back in the control centre.

Yep, I am definitely noticing a significant increase in speed and smoothness. From the moment I began using my 15 PM after the update it felt incredibly snappy, it’s almost as if they ramped up the touch rate or something.
Just a little informational tidbit, but you can make perfect shapes by drawing the figure you want, making sure to join the end of your drawing to the beginning.

That has swung it for me - not going to renew Fantastical next month. £59.99 is too much and it has what I need now.

I also have noticed since the update that when taking my phone off my MagSafe stand where it sits in StandBy, it is stone cold.
Until this update, it would always be slightly warm. I even had to check it was actually charging.
I didn't try on the previous beta but it's working fine for me on this new one.
FINALLY! Works like a charm. It would be also nice to have the possibility to use your phone while screen mirroring is still connected. Now, if i take my phone and unlock it, it disconnects me from the mac.Drag and Drop is enabled for iPhone Mirroring in this beta and the latest macOS 15.1 beta.

Turn off Bluetooth on your phone & connect your watch to phone hotspot or Wi-Fi, update will run faster that way
