iOS 27 Beta 6 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[uhaas]

Are time of day automations still not working? Or just me?

My Home automations came over fine, but the home hub is an AppleTV is on tvOS 26, so I’m guessing all the time of day things are still pending an tvOS 27 upgrade. My Automations however had all their triggers wiped. I had to recreate them all. Luckily, I only had a few. Most of automation is in Home.

I hope Apple fixes that. I get automations now has their triggers in script, but there was no migration that took place.

Thanks for your answer!
Too bad, really annoying. I want to know it especially since iOS 27 is going to switch way faster between data and wifi if one of it has better connection

It would be really nice if this was configurable by carrier. My home carrier’s data is unlimited, but not everyone is, and roaming may be different.

On a positive note, it feels like walking out of a wifi zone while on a wifi conference call smoothly switches out or the flip from wifi to cell is greatly improved.

I had my passport added to my wallet app.

It’s gone.
Anyone else have that issue?

Mine was still there. There’s a new privacy share button under it.

Siri AI still won’t let me add things to reminders or tell me if I have notifications unless I unlock my iPhone first.

Siri in general has always had issues doing things while thé phone is locked that were explicitly allowed to do while locked. It’s definitely one of the glaring bugs. It’s also super slow a lot of the time. iOS 26 I could ask to open the garage door and it was instant, now it has to think for 5-10 seconds.

Three days in, no loss of background contrast on iPad Safari toolbar buttons/active address tab (dark mode white text on white/light grey webpage) in beta 6. But the blank space between controls that progressively blurs towards the top still sometimes disappears. This may affect legibility of inactive tabs.

Some minor status bar black-white transition jank when edge-swiping forwards/back through website history.

Seems like the keyboard issue is back. Autocorrect occasionally gives up and just flickers

Under Beta 5 I had a similar problem and went to general > keyboards > all keyboards and turned off Auto-Capitalization and Auto-Correction, waited a few minutes and turned them back on. It worked for and now Beta 6 no issues.

Anyone else having display brightness do its own thing?

Finally a build I can run as a daily driver

Has it been fine as a daily driver? Might jump in with my iPhone Air. Hoping my apps work!

It’s been practically flawless on my 17 Pro. There’s been a couple of nuisance bugs across the journey from beta 1 but if your experience is anything like mine, you’ll be happy you made the jump.

I have been running iOS 27 betas on my daily iPhone 17 since 9 June, no major issues, apart from some visual glitches here and there. So much fun though!

It was never gone for me. Started with iOS 26.0 and has been there ever since.

iPhone Air
Mail

Getting inconsistent results in Mail with Notifications. Back to may or may not get lockscreen notifications. Badge count may or may not match actual both before and after refresh.

Ignoring the Notifications, everything else appears to be working fine in Mail. Just Notification issues are back.

I’m experiencing some issues with push emails for my Exchange account. I don’t receive any notifications, then I open Mail and suddenly several emails get downloaded. I suppose it could be an issue with the Mail notifications, but being that the Mail app is empty for a split second upon opening the app and then the emails get downloaded, I think it’s more of a problem with the emails not properly pushing.

I’ve always had issues with the badge count for the Mail app... mainly that I won’t have any badge at all when there are unread emails in the app. Really annoying.

Messages got stuck on dark mode once and I'm still having a little wonkiness with turning on or off Hotspot from the control center, but it's been rock solid otherwise. iOS 27 FTW!
