I’m in. Didn’t get a notification
I also have no idea what this is supposed to be useful for. The family photo conversion is horrible and everyone looks the same - barely any difference in how the drawing style is.
Is there a list of tips or what tou can use as prompts to control it better?

Got access yesterday, I signed up about 2 hours after the beta got released. My iPhone 15 Pro gets really hot when creating images / Genmojis, battery drain too, but it's really nice. Image Playgrounds isn't really detailed enough and is pretty uncanny when creating images from people's pictures, but Genmojis are something else! It's my favourite feature so far.
Finally got access yesterday. Honestly not bad for on device generation. The standout is genemoji tho. Here’s some outputs I got. I’m only sharing the gens of known people because they’re more impressive than friends and family but I’m impressed with the quality of on device generation.

dev beta 2 will be out soon they are expecting a new beta to drop every 2 weeks so we should get the new beta this week.
The first public beta will be out next week they say
i can't see apple still having a week delay when that opens so we should get it early next week.

My image playground just activated and I have to disagree with you.
It kept me amused for 20 TWENTY minutes not 15.
Otherwise hard agree
Interesting aside; it’s great at animating pictures of men, much less proficient as cartoons of women friends.
Yep. All my hopes are in the next beta. No access for me so far. 😞
I haven't a clue, for if I did, I wouldn't be asking this question. Now that I assume you do, can you explain it to all of us how it works, and the time frame to resolve all issues. Thank you so much.
Any software in the world has bugs. Whether it’s a printer, car, airplane, spaceship, TV, watch or phone, there will never be a bug free program. Maybe the only exceptions would be something you program yourself at home like something that controls a light switch. Something with tiny amounts of code. Bug fixing starts off with what are showstoppers or something that can be replicated at will and affecting the masses.
You look at the code, try to fix the code, compile, test, and see if it still happens. Then you also have check to see if what you did affects any other areas. If I fix a bug in email that causes crashes when opening attachments, does the fix break anything else like setting email flags?
Then you start working the medium things. Then you work your way down. You compile, test, distribute, wait for internal feedback. Then the groups get their fixes together and compile. Then once they’ve satisfied a certain threshold for testing and bugs, it’s released to the public.
The bugs never stop. There is no timeframe to fix all bugs because you can’t. It’s impossible with iOS or any mass program to be bug free. There are still bugs from previous iOS versions in iOS 18. For example, parallax and the App Library. There are a few threads on that bug. Sometimes even the dev tools have bugs. It’s not easy for large programs. This is an oversimplification btw.

Well! Funny you should ask that question, I as well as many others were having a problem with the touch screen not being so receptive to performing a certain task when touching the screen. For example, I went to open my mail program and I needed to tap the screen three times and say open says me before it worked. Since we have had very few updates it has gotten better, but still exists. So, you see that to me constitutes an issue. There was an issue with my EarPods but it seemed to have resolved itself with a recent update.
