Sure you can. Works just fine for me.
[doublepost=1465276588][/doublepost]

Performance seems improved slightly. No lag when switching in and out of apps. I can see an improvement over beta 1 and 9.3.2.
Battery is also improved it seems but that won't be known for sure for another couple of days.

Umm well thats odd.. Wont work on my Air 2 or 6s.

When I swipe up, I get a list of things I can ask. CC will not open.

So you can say 9.3.3 beta 2 can be used as a daily driver without any issues? I may update as your comments about the fw :)

I think by now we would've seen plenty of comments from people complaining about issues. This seems to be a solid beta, close to general release.
As usual tho, make sure to do a backup first.

I'm posting this just as a follow-up to the first beta build thread and it's worth mentioning. So, my battery woes were coincidental to the beta. I wiped last night and fresh installed 9.3.2. Battery went from 95% to 40% on standby over 6 hours on a fresh install. So, off to the Apple Store today to get this sucker exchanged. I guess it really was the phone that caused the fire a couple weeks ago (sparks and flames were firing out of my Apple charging cable - phone's never been the same since)

Also, since I've been tracking this, my battery capacity over a week went down from 97% to 93%. That to me looks like a battery on the verge of catastrophic failure. Kind of want to just turn the thing off and let the store deal with the fire hazard (hit almost 40 degrees C last night randomly, not even plugged in or doing much).

Not to derail the thread, but just wanted to really bring it home that the beta was not at fault for all of my troubles. I'll be reinstalling 9.3.3 later today on my non-exploding iPhone. :)

Edit: pity me - candy crush usage was about a half hour or less btw

Great release on 5s and mini 2.

Extremely smooth all around. No issues so far. Small battery sample size seems fine.

Is it just me or have they reduced the opacity of blurs overall(especially folders)?
This could explain the apparent performance improvement.

Performance wise, it doesn't make a difference how transparent the blur is, only if it's on or off.

Just had my first glitch. Went to change the wallpaper and the phone went straight to the Apple logo screen and after a restart came back on.
