Do you have a few examples? I have several non-time-of-day-based HomeKit automations and they’ve been working correctly. I think I had some glitches with DB1 but only then.

I have a dummy switch from home assistant linked into HomeKit as a trigger. When it’s turned on it will get the temperature and humidity from a couple of HomePod minis and then send it back to home assistant. This was working fine until iOS 27 beta. For now I have had to create the same workflow in shortcuts but triggered every 15 mins on my iPad instead of by the dummy switch.

If you test the automation it’s run locally and works but if triggered by an automation it fails on the “get contents” portion or the workflow.

3rd party widgets are fixed
New design in Clock App > Alarms Tab

All my AirTags still show as address unavailable in find my. Zooming out by pinching out is also super buggy in find my.

I had that issue for a bit in B4, but it resolved.

I assume you've already tried turning Find My off, reload and then back on?

I’m not going to mention the “optimizing search and Siri “ because I don’t want to be “one of those posters”…

Does anyone else see macrumors glyphs broken?

Changes to the status bar are much welcomed. Can’t put my finger on why but it feels right.

Small thing I noticed, it is still the old reception bar iconography on the control center.

Looks like it was an AT&T issue for my codes not working. Now resolved.

is everyone having the visual bug some users are mentioning here where there's content overlap in the Messages app?

"Once I send a message and go back to the messages homescreen the top banner almost takes up half the screen"

Geekbench 7 only released a few days ago

I think it’s on appearance tab since iOS 26

Still love how auto brightness was moved from “display & brightness” to accessibility > display & text size.

 

[dgruhn]

I am having issues with touch alignment in Safari with top menu bars on sites like Gmail and Facebook.

Siri is still working away on indexing here, but the numbers are still reporting the same.

Already reported the overlaying blur in messages. Only happens when you’ve pinned contacts.

Same issue here. Do you have a feedback number for reference?
