So I got a response finally for one of the bugs I reported. The weird thing is they say they fixed it in the latest build which is 13E233. The current beta 6 build is 13E5231a. That looks to me like the GM build since it's short and missing the letter at the end. What do you guys think?

iPad apps like music and messages still have the black screen flicker when using the 4 finger swipe. 6 months and still not fixed. Also they finally added full screen podcasts to iPad. Except when using the scrubber you can only scrub high speed (pulling your finger down or finer control doesn't work) iPad is still riddled with so many interface glitches like this that will most likely never get fixed.

Seriously 6 months to add full screen to the iPad podcast app for videos.......

I've used iPhones since the 4 and have never tried using beta software until 9.3 B6, which is on my iPhone 6S Plus 128. I really wanted to try the Night Shift and it seems to work as advertised. I'm impressed with the overall quality of this build. I've not encountered even one glitch. Not to say I won't but I haven't yet.

Since Beta 6, my LTE data connection on my iPhone 6 is always freezing after a few minutes. I get full reception, but can't make any internet connection. I have already tried to reset my network settings. No problems on 3G or EDGE though.

Can anyone confirm this issue? My operator is Telekom.de in Germany. Maybe someone has the same operator and can tell me, whether he/she has this problem, too?

Anyone else having mail sync issues. Beta 5 was fine but beta 6 killed my gmail for business in both mail (takes hours to sync if it ever does, even manually) and outlook has full on broken (can't sign in, gets past Google password but won't create the account)
Tried multiple fixes, reboots reinstalls. Nothing. But seems ok on iPad on beta 5.

@roncito

The "iPhone Autolock not working" bug you reported was the one, which leads the iPhone to ask for PIN Code too early? (not the specified time in settings, e.g. after 4 hours)

Ok so here's a weird one.

Has anyone else's iPhone been turning off at random percentages on with this beta and also the previous one?

My percentage seems off and the drain isn't linear.

Here's where it gets weirder. My 6+ has turned off at 8,9,17 and now 60 odd percent.

Wait a few minutes and you'll be able to power it back on and use it for ages again.

I'm wondering whether it is the cold. At least three of those times, I have been using my phone for fairly long periods in cold weather. Like when I'm waiting for a train for example.

A few weeks ago, I was wild camping and left my phone in the tent pocket. It was 0C overnight and I woke up and it was dead, despite being on 20% or so. Then it turned back on.

I know the cold can adversely affect a battery but I've never experienced it happening like this, so frequently.

Can anyone advise?

Myself and a few of my friends are experiencing the same issue.

I don't think it's the cold, I think we have a SW bug.

I have also noticed a major lag with the mail app.

Beta 6 is the smoothest one yet on my 6s Plus and best 9.3 battery life yet. I have no complaints here. It's a great GM candidate.

Not to me.
  1. iCloud Backup is still very flaky. On the iPhone, it's always backing way more than it's supposed to and backup size doesn't add up (it's fine on iPad).
  2. Night Shift does not always disengage after scheduled time on iPad. Strangely enough, the status on both Control Panel and Settings app claim it is turned off. But I need to toggle it on and off repeated to get it to disengage. Works fine on iPhone.
  3. Previously 3rd party Bluetooth devices sometimes lose pairing and need to be re-paired.
  4. On iPhone 6S, 3D Touch haptic feedback sometimes dies (needs restart).
