iOS 9.1 Beta 2 Changes, Fixes & Bugs

[Andy00m]

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

I have a iPhone 6s Plus coming, but I'm using Beta on my current device. Should I set the the new device up as new or can I restore the previous data? Thanks for any available help.

Just add the beta profile to your new phone and then you can restore from backup.

Is anyone missing the Feedback app? Just updated to beta 2 on my new phone and it's not there. Downloaded the the profile etc.

Not a huge thing; just wondered

Anyone else had this?? Reset all settings yesterday. Been on 4G most of the day today, battery was down to 30% after 4 hours of use and has been extremely hot. Got home, closed it from the app switcher, charged phone from 20 to 90% and after 2 hours its down to 54% and my phone is very hot took on WiFI..

App store using all my battery!! Whats it doing?? Had no updates today at all and battery is plummeting by 1% every 2 minutes..

 

[Donga120]

And 6 minuts after.. Still using my battery and it has dropped a lot by then too... Screen brightness is on 40% or so.

9.1 beta 2 is running real well here on my 6+ and Air 2. Thus far, nothing major to report. A couple of minor bugs reported. Running much smoother on my 6+. I can easily use beta 2 as my daily driver.

Have you got automatic app updates on? If not, try a restart. Sounds like a major bug! =/

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

Yep. Same with spotlight lag. Those are the only two issues I have on my iOS devices. Even on the Air 2.

I have yes... Will try a restart.

Ive noticed theres been a decrease in signal strength ever since I upgraded to ios9 betas. The same locations I had 4-5 bars with 8.1.4, I have 2-3 bars with 9.1b2. Not sure why. It kills my battery and constantly switching off between LTE and 4G

Hi, is in this beta possible to download word, excel or power point from safari once again?

No. Word docs still open in Safari with no options for opening them in another app.

 

[CharlieBrown-DE]

Since when you can again send only 5 pics from fotos app with mail?

And 6 minuts after.. Still using my battery and it has dropped a lot by then too... Screen brightness is on 40% or so.

Update..

 

[stusgt67]

Update..

Hmm...okay. Report it to Apple, that's all you can do it seems. Unless you want to try a clean install, then restore?

Yep will do. I'll report it to Apple but try Reset all Settings again too...

Disabling auto-brightness does not seem to be working. Screen keeps dimming even though I have it disabled

Working fine here mate. 6 Plus. Try a reset or reset all settings

 

[cloudystrife]

Reset all fixed it. Thanks! 6S here as well

Anyone notice a delay when typing in a letter for looking up a contact in message app? Starting a new message there is a noticeable delay when filling in the TO: field. Zero delay with iOS 8.4.1, names show almost instantaneously. Same on air 2 or iPhone 6.

I am testing the battery life with PB2 on my 6+ with almost non-stop usage of the phone and without Low Power Mode enabled but for now the battery seems pretty stable.
