Very smooth so far. Beta 5 ran already pretty nice on my 15 Pro. Feels more polished than 18.0

Do we know if this beta includes 18.0.1 fixes (screen touch issues on 16, memory usage, etc) ?

I restored to 18.0.1 when I was on 18.1b5 because of what it fixed.

Talking to Siri is much better for me in beta 6. Siri can now hear me and picks up on every word. In beta 5 it was so hard to get Siri to listen at all with it only picking one or two words.

11Pro:
Missing AirPods Case battery state in Settings is still there, resprings seems to not be present anymore (let’s wait for victory), AirPods also seems to not loose bitrate / crash.

Also something-like-lag (like governor not switched cpu cores / not increased their clock in time) is gone for now (B5 was also initially butter, then became crap).

Hearing icon (which readded itself like crazy) is gone 🏆

Edit:
Keyboard input lag is this time on me… pressing key and it feels / looks it’s more delayed than was before.
It was gone after few hours

Give it at least one day to settle

Haven’t seen the splash screen before, although I doubt it’s new.

Huge emoji keyboard and even bigger Safari Favorites aka Granpa Mode icons will be probably with us forever :D

Under Apple Card the Saving account button no longer displays the amount in your savings. You have to click it to see your balance. Also, there is a new message that says, " Goldman Sachs Bank USA FDIC-Insured - Backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government"
 
Think the re-writing of emails needs work or more integration with ChatGPT to get the balance right.

Example of turning my email into professional that I didn’t think worked at all was:

How you doing?

Converted to

How are you faring?

I mean, who actually talks like that these days. It’s very old English. Weird.

I hope it didn’t say “fairing”. The correct word would be “faring”.
