iOS 11 Dev Beta 3 is now Available

[RECON1]

If you have an iPhone with 3D Touch, you can clear them all with one 3D Press.

But you have to swipe up to see “Earlier today” and then 3D Touch. I don’t think there’s anything for just the recents?

Are the content/ad blockers for Safari working?

Yes, Crystal seems to work.

If I exit an app and swipe to a new screen immediately, I get a flicker of the app I'm exiting on the top left corner of the screen. Very annoying.

In the new Airplay choices boxes it does not say iPhone anymore. Just says Speaker.

There’s A LOT of code, and A LOT of new stuff, even if we don’t see a lot of it. One change in code can change how code works in numerous other areas. That’s why they use developers to beta test. Find where the software fails and how to reproduce it so they can fix the code in all the right places. Even that may end borking the code elsewhere again. That’s where this hilarious coding joke comes from, “99 bugs in the code, 99 bugs, fix a bug and patch it around, 105 bugs in the code.” Or something along those lines. The more complex these codes become the more bugs there will be and the more updates will be required to fix them.

Exactly right. iOS has millions of lines of code all together, Im sure. Maybe even tens of millions. A change in a few lines of code here, even if it seems almost inconsequential can totally change how the code there in another part of the OS works all together. These things are SO much more complex than what most people can even dream of knowing or understanding. One error, one typo in the code can totally break an entire system and finding these tiny errors can be like looking for a very specific needle in a needle stack. This is inherent to all complex software, and even more so with an OS that not only has to support itself, but everything running on top of it as well. Thats why there are both dev and public beta testers. The more people using it, the more usage scenarios come up, and the more likely that the obscure bugs are found before it goes out as a final version. There will always be bugs even in the Gold Master, but the hope is that the bigger and uglier ones have been squashed.

That’s not happening on my iPhone , but I did notice it happening in my iPad Pro shortly after installing the new dev beta. It’s currently turned off and on the charger. I’ll test it out again later on.

A couple of other people I know running the beta and they are able to duplicate the problem. So I know it's not just me.

My update is stuck at this point. I tried a reset. Still stuck

It’s not stuck, something about iOS 11 updates are weird like that. They sit on Preparing, and it may disappear, then it starts installing.

Hmmm. I'm on call this weekend, but after that I may try a beta to see what iOS 11 is all about. 10.3.2 is running just fine on my 6 plus though so I hate to screw with it.

I don’t doubt you at all, especially when I noticed the same thing on my iPad Pro. I just haven’t noticed it on my iPhone yet.

I don’t have it on my iPad but glad you can confirm it there. I’ll stay on 10.3.3 then for my iPad. Lol.

How’s everyone’s battery? So far mine sucks unfortunately.

Mine sucks on the iPad. I have the 9.7” iPad Pro

I was doing all sorts of business-related stuff on my iPad Pro today and I was still using battery power when I upgraded to the latest dev beta so I’m not sure about battery life on it. I put it on the charger when it had approximately 29% battery life remaining and I haven’t used it since.

Yeah I don’t know what the issue was this evening. Going to start fresh tomorrow and keep an eye on how quickly it drains.
