This has been intentional since iOS 7. I actually like it, if your just gonna look at the lock screen quick its nice to have it big.
Exactly. That's the whole purpose of it. It was an intentional decision to make it bigger on the lock screen vs the home screen. Drives me crazy when people on here think it's this bug that they haven't bothered to fix in years or something.

Handoff finally works on my 6s Plus it was broken in the last beta. I still have the lag in Landscape, and the com.springboard thing in my settings though from the earlier betas.

I saw people saying beta 6 introduced heavy battery drain again. How are people finding 7 for that? Wary as 5 has been okay for me after the shambles of 3 and 4.
Yes beta 6 was horrible. I can tell in the little bit that I've had beta 7 and can say that battery is back to normal. But we will see tomorrow on a whole day.

Has anyone with a watch noticed that iMessages on the phone will not get a message first if on 4G? Ig I am on LTE they are in sync, once the reception is even the least bit spotty the message will show on my watch sometimes for a full 20 minutes until it appears on the phone... so how the hell is the watch getting it first???

How is it broken?

monthly view is correct as it shows ive walked well over 20 miles & 40k steps. while the yearly view caps at something far lower, & doesnt update at the end of the month either. even when i walked over 9 miles in 1 day, the monthly view still likes to cap at 5.5 miles. pre ios 9.3 with the connected lines was fine & always accurate.

I think that it's averaging your data for the current year not the past year so that number is your average so far this year. I might be wrong but I think that's how the data is being shown. I see the same thing on my health app on my 6s.

I guess it's as has been said above. Yearly charts tend to be averaged differently. Therefore even if you were consistently on a much higher scale, the increase would not be substantial in the yearly view.

That's because the month view shows it for every day. And out of the month you didn't pass 5.5 miles. I'm sure your average is under that. So it has to show you a line to give you an idea of where each bar is at.

Quick reply is still not working for whatsapp messages. But I guess an update of the app itself will fix it.....

A "com.apple.springboard" line just showed up in Settings>Privacy>Location Services. I've never noticed this before beta 7. Anyone else have this? Seeing this on both 6s+ & iPad Pro.

Same here on 6S, reported this to Apple via Feedback app

Lockscreen sliding still has low FPS on any Metal device.

Was playing around with my mum's iPhone 4S (9.2.1), and was amazed at how smooth the lock screen scrolled. It was actually so perfect you almost get a sense of motion blur. I get the same smoothness on my iPad Mini 1 on 9.3 b7 too...

OpenGL still reigns supreme in my opinion

It's averaging the month not giving you totals in the yearly view. If you look in the monthly view it says you walked an average of 4.6 miles in the last month. In yearly view, the bar is approximately 4.6 miles long for the last month. Then it does this average for every month of the year.

To those wondering why this was so quick a release: pretty sure because its the last, cleanup beta. I missed the news last night that this had landed. Already this morning, though, Apple had pushed it to my phone and I got a notification. My recollection is that normally a push would not occur for several days (though I normally download the beta right away, so I could be mistaken about that). But if so, I'd say its because they want quick feedback on this version.
