iOS 9.1 Beta 2 Changes, Fixes & Bugs

Status
Not open for further replies.
I am actually really just angry! No matter how many times I try to download and install iOS 9.1 PB 2 it wont work. It's ALWAYS saying "Software Update Failed". I've tried turning WiFi on and off. I've tried turing airplane mode on and off. I've tried constantly trying to download and install. I've tried turning my phone on and off. I've tried waiting a few seconds, minutes, hours and even a day now!

Someone please help! :'(
 
Not sure if this is a bug but my music (on the iPhone Music Library) keeps pausing and stopping itself. Never happened before on any other iOS versions. Anyone having the same problem?

Its not my songs as they have been working fine for the past 2 years
 
Anybody attempted to add a new Apple Pay card since updating to iOS 9.1 beta 2? I attempted and it added to the iPhone but would then not add to Apple Watch (running Watch OS 2). I restored iPhone from backup to iOS 9.1 beta 1 and was able to add card to apple watch. While on iOS 9.1 beta 2 Apple Pay still worked on cards that were already added to Apple Watch.
 
There is a definitely a huge improvement in performance (iphone 6+). My phone is now running the smoothest it's ever ran on any of the 9.0 series. Theres still a lag when pulling spotlight down, but everything else has improved greatly

Not sure if this is new or not but when I declined the update it came up with this message.

Anyone with iPad Air (not 2), how's the multitasking animations? Still choppy?

What I've noticed is app switcher is just fine on the iPhone end(public release).
I haven't tried the public version on my Mini 2, but the switcher is tremendously laggy with iOS 9.1PB1
Can anyone vouch for 9.1 beta 2?
On a side note, swipe down spotlight lags throughout the iOS ecosystem. Be proud of your consistency O' Apple!

I've let 9.1b2 index for a day and the switcher has no lag
Spotlight swipe down is laggy, even after doing it a couple times.

Side note: IMDb recently updated to have Spotlight search access. iOS 9 public worked flawlessly. After getting 9.1b2 it does not work anymore at all.
 
Anyone having app update problems? Especially the apps that come with Apple Watch apps.

Bluetooth on my car still won't connect for hands free phone. Hopefully will work on final release.

Drop you phone from you car menu on the Bluetooth, and re pair it again like a new device. works in my vehicle fine.
 
Anyone have an issue when trying to delete an app from the home screen? Clicking the "X" on any app freezes the screen and eventual resprings the device on its own. Using iPhone 6 and it also was a problem on beta 1.

It usually locks up my phone for a few seconds but never a respring

On iPhone 6, Beta 2. Just tried deleting an app. It was smooth. No lockups, no jitters and certainly no resprings.

Hmm. The first few times I tried deleting apps on the betas sometimes it worked as expected, or else there was a 5 second lag until the pop up came up. Now every time I try it freezes to the point that the only thing I can do is a hard shut off. If I leave it alone for a minute frozen it resprings.
 
Is it really faster than 9.1 beta 1 on an iphone 5? I went back to 8.4.1 from 9.1pb1 because app switching was so slow. Is it worth trying out beta 2?
 
From what I can tell everyone's experience is different. So unless you try it yourself, who knows.

Resetting all settings fixed this for me
 
Hi, is in this beta possible to download word, excel or power point from safari once again? And open those files in office apps? Thanks... I can still download PDFs regular way. I'm thinking about going back to 8.4.1 because of this.... Thank you

Running: iOS 9 on iPad Air 32gb, cellular + iPhone 6
