No. It's still there and working fine for me. I think they tweaked the angle at which is switches. Make sure your phone is closer to vertical or it won't switch.
Got a tip for us?

Removed features.

It’s appreciated that this is still there, but there’s times when you’d maybe update 5 ‘small’ apps of about 50mb each, which adds ups over a week. For people who might be on a limited data plan, it’s a really useful feature to have. I’m hoping it’s just a bug.

Seems like the idea for limited plans would be to update when on WiFi, given that the limited nature of the plan would be there even prior to iOS 11.
This is great, I've been complaining about the 3d app switch feature removal for awhile on the Public Betas.. Glad I wasn't the only one who was using it and is just as annoyed!
I did come up with a work around that "sort of" works.. here's from my earlier post
-> Search "AssistiveTouch" in settings, enable it
-> press "customize top level menu"
-> Set 3d touch action to "multitasking"
now i can 3d touch and swipe right to bring up multitasking. Also set the "idle opacity" to 15% and it will almost disappear off the screen

(Landscape home screen on plus). Yes, that's an improvement, since I used to switch it accidentally all the time.
I get that, it just seems like an odd step back.
Here’s an example. I’ve got no idea how big these updates are. I might be able to do them on cellular. I might need to wait for WiFi. It might take 30 seconds, it might take ten minutes. No way for the user to know.
Edit;
There’s a way. Click on the app, scroll to the bottom of the page and find it amongst the information. Which is unarguably a worse way that just ‘look next to update burton’.
Hopefully, hopefully a bug.
Isn't that the size of the entire app?I get that, it just seems like an odd step back.

Those sizes don’t even often represent how much is actually downloaded or how big the installed app is.
I’m really frustrated. I used to use safari to “subscribe" to the top 4 knowledgeable Swift users on stackoveflow. I could then go to safari "shared links" each night and see all the answers these 4 users had posted that day. Now safari has removed shared links I can’t do this. Ive spent all damn day googling to see what alternatives I’ve got and can’t see any that work.
http://bugreport.apple.com might be even more crucial, but that's more for actual problems/issues typically.
Definitely! Feedback asks for selection of bug v. enhancement request etc. as well though and doesn't require a login
But is also fairly likely something that might have less attention paid to as well.Definitely! Feedback asks for selection of bug v. enhancement request etc. as well though and doesn't require a login
Yes for serious issues certainly go to bugreport first followed by the aforementioned twitter accounts and it definitely won't hurt to also alert via feedback as well to hit the most channels.
that is what apple has become, they remove useful features and add useless bloat junk to their software.
Probably not ready yet? Haha, it's quite interesting how many things Apple seems to "mess" up of late. Read the Apple Watch Series 3 blunder yet?
I wonder if Tim ever does the Jobs where Jobs called the whole maps and me.com team and does his grilling when things didn't work up to the standard Apple is expected of.
