Sounds good to me as they're still features I've been tempted to return to Google for.

Agreed, I’m going to 17 I think, at least until the main features come online later in the year
I'm staying well away from rearranging control centre.
You move one thing and the whole screens rearranges.
It's wired hot. LOL

Haven’t had any on my 15 PM.
I’m seeing this as well. Not a huge deal but my calendar widget is white while the rest of my setup is in dark mode.On the Today screen some widgets are light instead of dark. I am using dark mode. I can change the widgets to dark by choosing customise but then system icons are dark as well which I don't want. Is this a bug or am I missing something?
CarPlay | Wired.
To and from work today and it didn't even freeze up.
This was happening at least once a day on iOS 17.5.1

I liked it for about half an hour, then went back to the small icons with text underneath.
Maybe I just wasn't ready for the change
I like the text going, but I think the app size is too big.
Needs to come down a touch to allow for a bit more breathing space around the icons so my eye can be more relaxed looking at the screen when finding my apps.
Think I'll hold off. Without the updated Siri and AI, not worth the risk. Want the updated Control Center, but can wait on that.
Gooooo onnnnnnn!
Honestly, few little niggles here and there, but 90% happy using it for the first day.
Performance and battery is just like io17.5.1 on my IP14P.
And there is a nice smoothness to it that feels different to iOS 17.
Gotta say, in some ways this beta feels smoother than iOS 17 and iPadOS 17 on both my M4 iPad Pro and my iPhone 15 Pro Max. Battery has been stable, temperature is definitely cooler. Little things aside, quite impressed so far.
I presume another beta in ~15 days (week before July 4th), a DB3 ~July 10th with a PB1 of that DB3 ~July 15th. That’d be my guess for how this will go based on last year.

But with AI, it would be worth the risk?!Think I'll hold off. Without the updated Siri and AI, not worth the risk. Want the updated Control Center, but can wait on that.
The backgrounds of the App Library and Widget pages are no longer blurred. Looks terrible with my icon shadows background.
I Was planning to but the broken notifications is a deal breaker for me. I’ll probably jump on when it’s fixed.
Using the count mode instead of list mode has fixed my notifications. Not sure about stack mode, I haven’t tried that yet yet.
Stack mode works as well. It seems to just be List mode that doesn't work for me.
I tried all three and Count and Stack gave me the best results.
However there are Notification that I am just not getting. Not to mention that some apps that had Notification in 17.5 are no longer listed in 18.
It’s early in this beta. Much much more to come.
Can always revert back to 17 if you have a backup. I'm going to make a fresh backup on my mac tonight, then install 18.
I couldn’t find the function before I read this tread, was trying the long press on the send button os I also think that would be a better design
It took a little effort (and a couple of random re-springs along the way 😂) but here’s my current version. Very much liking this CC update.
