iOS 9.1 Beta 4 Changes, Fixes & Bugs

[iRift]

MUCH MUCH better. No more lags in spotify, Safari, whatsapp, ...
Was worth it upgrading from 9.0.2.

Updated on iPhone 6S 64 GB.

still major stutter when "swiping to go back" in Mail, Messages, Appstore, Photos app, and more 3rd part apps

Just did swipe back for all these and smooth for me.

Agree. Spotify was terrible. On beta 4, it's perfectly fine.

There is still the issue of the app icon disappearing when you expand release notes on iOS app updates in the App Store.

I've noticed this since early 9.0 betas.

How hard is that to fix?! Can't believe its still an issue.. I mean yea, its nothing major. just seems like it be a quick fix.

No changes at all on 6S Plus. Animation stutter issues largely the same!

Seriously. I might just keep "reduce transparency" set to on until all this gets sorted. The 3D Touch menu on icons is so bad on the 6s Plus with these betas.

Is this good enough to be a daily driver on the iPhone 6 yet? Anybody having issues that would drive an OCD cat like myself nuts?

I put it on my iPad Air and all seems well, but putting it on my phone is a whole other story.

100%

If it's good enough for this iOS OCD sufferer, it's good enough for many others, lol.

WhatsApp and Tweetbot 4 scrolling (scrolling across the system in fact) is vastly improved on my iPhone 6.

Build number is more aligned with the release build. 9.1 beta 4 = 13B136. 9.0.2 = 13A452. Probably means they have merged to mainline from a 9.1 beta branch. There's likely no more 9.0.x updates unless something serious is discovered.

My usual question buddies: can we scroll through photos now on the iCloud Drive app?

Usual answer, no

 

[madara889]

i think 9.1 will be release next Week

iCloud drive app, is it working for you? I mean, the search field is completely useless. It find only jpg images, not other file types. No pdf, no txt. Can you try please?

I didn't even notice the 3D Touch stutters until I started reading this forum.

They're pretty bad, especially when you compare against an iPhone 6s.

Do you guys think this is the last beta then final release in November alongside the iPad pro?

 

[stooovie]

Anyone on an iPhone 5 that can check the performance for me? Is there still lag when launching apps?

Yep.

Finds everything all right here.

On my i5 and Air 2, it's very very stable. stutter is still present (I don't see that going away, ever), but otherwise no real issues.

Had this on a 5c - had to update via iTunes from the Dev Center

Just got 9.1 b4 on iPhone 6 Plus, animation is definitely faster. It's noticeable. I'm not sure about if they improved the frame drops (they still exist), kinda seems largely the same to me compared to b3. I'm just satisfied that animation is now faster, surprised me at first.

All stutter that was present on 9.0.2 and 9.1 beta 3 has been addressss on 9.1 beta 4 on my 6 and Air 2.

Scrolling is smoother (recent calls list, Music app, Settings, etc), App Switcher when tapping on an app further back in the row and it zooms to fill the screen is smoother, random stutter at the end of app opening/closing transition animations have gone completely.

Very pleased.

Im on the public beta, is there any other way can it not fix itself?

 

[atlchamp]

I can't believe that in 2015 we are still talking about things being slow and stuttering with all the technology in the world smh

Try deleting the downloaded files from Storage in settings and redownloading it?

Will try that. Did you not try that first?
