Your iOS 10 Questions

A long press on the send button just works fine. No need for 3D Touch.

Not on my 6S. Long pressing on the send button does nothing. Although, on the 6 tap-backs I think the intended gesture is a double tap as that's how Apple says to do it.

I get it now. Again, it's what lagwagon said. You MUST insert your passcode after a restart so that Touch ID is authenticated with the Secure Enclave. Obviously once you've inserted your passcode you can use Touch ID to buy stuff (again, up until your phone restarts).

No u don't get it

Anyone know if we will be able to change the color of our text message bubbles with the iMessage? Seems developers have access to more than ever and we can send payments but wonder if they will continue to force blue, grey and green.

Fine, whatever.

I know that the parking notification thing is linked up to the Bluetooth but can anyone tell me if it works when you have just like a Bluetooth speaker phone in your car because your car is too old to actually link up to anything? LOL Will it drop the pin when you Turn your Bluetooth speakerphone off or does it only work with cars that you can actually pair your phone to?

Excellent explanation there.

The long press works on the 6 Plus.

I see on a video that if you play a video on the photo app, and go back to home screen, the video sound still play, Is this the same for other videos like on Safari or its just limited for the ones on the photo app?

Question: is side-by-side mail composition available also for the ipad pro 9.7?

That's because the 6S has 3D Touch. Long press in messages for the new features is for non 3D Touch enabled devices. (Same way non 3D Touch devices will be getting Rich Notifications via long press in place of 3D Touch in a later build.)

Any improvements or features added to the iCloud Drive app?

Can you install iOS 10 Beta without being in the developer program over a .ipsw restore? Currently using the OTA certificate method but wanted to clean-install it.

In iOS 9, there was a way to see the newly released albums in the music app. I live in Germany, and new music comes to the stores at friday. So i could check this 'page' every friday and could see all new released albums. And i could sort them by genre. Where is this page now?

Currently in the beta build of the Music app new music is in the Browse section. You can view all new music (all genres) in the New Music option or you can go into the Genre option and see new music for that genre.

*screenshot shows new music section from within the Alternative genre.

Hi lagwagon,

Does you iPhone stutter when opening music app or stutters when on multitasking window with music app being opened? I have a 6s plus. Just asking to see if it just me or it's just the beta. Thank you.

I don't have a Plus or an "s" model I'm on an iPhone 6 and no noticeable stutters while launching into the Music app or going into the App Switcher while music is playing here.

It's beta and there are the occasional stutter throughout iOS 10. But nothing specific to Music app that you ask.

Thank you for your quick response. Maybe it's not a stutter but a drop frames perhaps? It's the only visual complain I have. It's totally understandable for the beta to have an occasional stutter. I just haven't read a complain about the music app having this "stutter" or drop frames. I reinstalled the beta, but still the same. Thanks again.

The only thing I noticed about the new Music app when it comes to performance is the complete opposite. Compared to iOS 9, it's WAY smoother in animations. (Go into to an artist then back out to the artist list in iOS 9.. It always stuttered hard and text would blink. Now do that in iOS 10. Smooth and no blinking text.)

Thank you lagwagon! found it.

Doubtful. The color tells you if its iMessage or SMS so I doubt they will change that or allow the colors to be different.

Would be odd if we still can't change the color of the same bubbles that we can tilt, resize, and cover with all sorts of (often) atrocious stickers. It seems like Apple has and is allowing developers to have open season with iMessage in every other way.

Would be nice to have an option to switch the 3 bubble colors from default grey, green and blue - could even make sure you can't choose the same color twice. (Makes sure you know if its an SMS or iMessage).

But I can't really complain about Apple being stubborn on the bubble colors when I'm doing the same when, in constantly wanting it to be changed.

Apple opened things up to some degree while still keeping some of their standards, like color indicators for message types, in play for consistency.

So... since no one answer my question, I will try again.

Is video sound playable in the background? I saw a video saying that video on Photo app play sound on the background if you quit the app, but how about safari video?

How does the first beta of iOS 10 run on the oldest supported devices (iPhone 5, iPad 4)?

 

[nanogirl21]
