iOS 18.1 Beta 5 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[gwhizkids]

I have seen others post this before, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it through all these betas

Was getting this when I installed beta 4 on my 16PM

Ok I have serious question - what the heck is with "Hearing" widget? It keeps readding itself to CC even when removed 3-5 times in row, sometimes just after leaving Edit Mode, sometimes after moving up and down in CC, sometimes when entering CC

This has been a problem for awhile now.

Anyone else having apps being signed out after a beta install?
I’ve had Airbnb and now Sonos asking to log back in today.

Music-view playing indicator (indicating that “CRUSH” is playing in this case) is lagging behind actual current track, “ALL THE LOVE.” iPhone 15.

Not sure if it was a “general” Sonos thing, but I had to re sign in earlier, before I updated to the latest iOS beta.

Just checked Airbnb and yes, I had to sign in again

No sleep apnea in iOS 18.1 beta 5?

The Apple Intelligence button in Notes is for writing tools. The drawing stuff is supposed to being the pen selector.

Anyone else w/ the new 16PM only have 1x & 2x zoom when taking a video after the update?

Update: found its related to the FPS setting.

That’s because this Skelton is using Windoze. 😜

Siri speech responses are much faster (the speaking speed) compared to 18.1 b4. Before the update I couldn’t stand how slow the voice was.

So I first encountered this in b4 and it’s still here in b5. When trying to clean up a photo 99% of the time it just pixelates what I’m actually trying to remove. Am I missing something? Is there a way to force control if you want to remove or just pixelate an object?

Apple Intelligence apparently requires 4GB of storage on your device, strange considering that the most storage it’s taking at the moment around two and a half gigs.

This is how much iPhone storage Apple Intelligence will require - 9to5Mac

Apple has published the storage requirements for Apple Intelligence features in iOS 18.1. Here’s how much free iPhone storage you’ll need.

The image models and semantic index are not in the current betas. Maybe that’s what they’re referring to

It’s really odd to remove something that is in an earlier version isn’t it?

Has anyone reported it?

Most photos don’t give me an issue but some in particular only seem to apply the “safety filter” blur/pixelation no matter what I do (tap/swipe/circle)

Yeah that’s what I’m getting. Wasn’t like that in previous betas. Only started acting like this in b4 & b5.

Had the same issue with beta 4.

 

[Jumpie]

I have Dark Mode set to auto and everything changes except icons. I have to edit the homescreen to enable them. Anyone else have the issue? It used to charge the icings to dark but no longer. Any idea how to fix it?

In other words, dont they turn dark automatically with sunrise/sunset?

Edit: never mind! Automatic! I'm an idiot!!

That’d be my guess. Right now I’m not sure how much of the processing is occurring on device. I suspect that they wanted to fine tune the models before releasing them for full on device processing so the processing during the beta may be occurring in the cloud.

 

[gwhizkids]

Pretty sure Apple is aware of this.

 

[Jarrodbcall]

I assume they didn’t remove it, rather didn’t activate it yet. They probably have forked the 18.1 beta from a build that didn’t have sleep apnea on at that point.
But by now I would have expected them to be at least at the same point with these features.

That sounds like the most plausible explanation. I would think they would want to have it in the main release, so I'm sure it will get added in the next week or two. I'm anxiously awaiting it since I have a history of sleep apnea but a difficult doctor, so I think having more data will help as I advocate for treatment needs.

Sucks that I can’t use smart replies or summarized notifications since I’m still seeing this “Apple intelligence downloading” since updating today.

Worked fine on previous beta 4 on my 16PM

Anyone else having this bug?

I’ve tried restarting and turning it off and on. No luck.
