Still hate the delete "X" option in Notification Center. It's kind of awkward bringing up another "X". The blue "Dismiss" option made more sense to me functionally and aesthetically.

when you delete whatsapp and reinstall it try not restoring chat from backup.


it works for me but it's still finicky with certain letters like 'fi' and 'ff'.

I just choose Clear All Conversation when that happens to me. The crashing stops, till someone or me post a word with 'fi' or 'ff' in it

I'm not really sure if this mark as read and trash was there in previous beta. Any one notice this?

Ok I have two questions. When I pull down notification center weather isn't showing up. It seems like it should cause it has weather provided by at the bottom

Also what happened to my photo stream in photos? I don't see the folder. I know anything before the update won't be in there but I tried taking a picture after and still nothing. I checked and it's on in settings

Also it still says iCloud back up is in progress. Seems like it's done. Anyone see this? I'll leave it overnight I guess. I really don't want to wipe and restore again.

I'm kind of nervous. I'll probably hold off until I can catch up on all these comments. I'm using beta 3 & this is the most stable my phone has been since beta 1... I can't go back to that same craziness that beta 2 came with.

yes that one is surprising considering it hasn't been there in beta3. I just installed it on iPad and it doesn't happen there. Generally speaking it feels super smooth on iPad (mini), somewhat better than on iPhone.

I can't get my head around the Photostream issue either. It's vanished and instead I'm asked to sign up for the new iCloud Photo service (whatever it's called exactly). Now, if I hit yes it says I don't have sufficient iCloud storage and tries to sell me more GB. Which I'm not really interested in at this point. They haven't completely dropped the Photostream (latest 1000 pics on all devices for free) service in order to sell the new one, have they? I hope not. So I guess for now I won't have my photos synchronised automatically between devices. Doesn't bother me as long as Photostream comes back with the next beta or at least the GM. If it's been dropped entirely though Apple and I have beef.

*update* I stand corrected, just took a picture on my phone and it shows up under recently added on iPad. So maybe theyve just integrated the stream into the one folder? At least my assumption.

Beta 4 for me is quite good on both iPad Air and iPhone 5S. I tried beta 1, had to give up on beta 2 and now upon returning to beta 4 I'm more than happy with it.

On both devices it is stable, had a few odd screen issues with orientation, but nothing that stopped me from doing what I needed.

The killer feature for me is the ability to fire up hotspot on my MacBook Air without having to take my iPad out of my bag and fiddle with settings, it is truely fantastic. I've now dropped using mailbox (private email) and boxer (work exchange) in favour of the great new mail app, especially with swipe actions and contact completion suggestions, obviously both were in beta 1 however the general platform was a struggle.

Battery life seems on par with 7.1.2, so happy with that, surprised actually.

So far happy with beta 4, no thoughts of heading back to v7.x and enjoying the new features.

My battery was horrible on beta 4.

I did a wipe and restore and now battery life is great again. I think something gets hung up when you just upgrade. I've noticed I had to wipe and restore every beta upgrade in order to have the best experience.

Hit edit and add weather to the tab.
