I can't take this any more.

Take what?

An issue I had this morning... woke up to multiple notifications overnight. Couldn't scroll past the bottom one, almost like it was locked. I could drag it up and see there were more, but it wouldn't scroll. If I persisted, it seemed like they'd come up, but reluctantly.

I've had that on 10.1.1. Part of the bottom notification shows, but can't do anything with it.

I will admit. I do have ****ty battery life. I’m at 27% it’s almost 2:30pm and I took it off the charger at 9:00am this morning

What device?
I take my iPhone 7 Plus off the charger at 7:20, around 7:45 I listen to Music until 8:50 and while in train I do all kinds of stuff, like checking the news, Snapchat, Facebook, Reddit, iMore via Tapatalk, I browse through the For You section in Music, I check in at the train stations and work on Swarm (Foursquare). Essentially, I don’t let my phone sleep for almost an hour during commute.
When I arrive at work around 8:50 my battery level is at 72%. Been like that since beta2.
During work I get loads of notifications from an iMessage group with annoying people in it , (j/k love you guys), notifications from Instagram (I have set notifications for a lot of accounts if they share something on it), notifications from WhatsApp/Facebook/newsflash from my local news app and twitter notifications.
Around 10:30 I go for a coffee break and repeat everything what I did in commute, apart from listening music. Same goes for 12 and 14:30.
Around 17 I go back home with 25% battery level, at which point I charge my iPhone with a portable charger.

Edit: and oh, I have location settings on While In Use in settings for almost all apps. And I also have an Watch connected to my iPhone.

I believe my battery level would be better if I had disabled Instagram and Twitter notifications. I’m aware of that.

I have a 7 Plus. Usually by this time I’m at 70-80%. Never in the 20’s but as we know this is the beta life. So it may get better.

Mine wasn't as good today as it was yesterday but I used it more -- iPhone 6s. I'm still happy as the beta is overall very good so far.

No that’s true. I’ve been getting use to different things and making my findings as I go along. Still happy and I’m always near a charger. It’s not a deal breaker yet.

BUG: setting a live photo as a lock screen wallpaper results in a respring when doing it through the photos app. Going through settings does not, and neither does setting a photo as both lock screen and home screen wallpaper. No problem setting a Live Photo wallpaper for just the home screen through the photos app, either. Only resprings when it’s a Live Photo on the lock screen, and when applied through the photos app.

EDIT: Tried it before posting and it repeatedly did it. Now it won’t. Weird.

Had an issue today with outgoing calls failing when the other party answered. Incoming was fine. Did a restart, and that fixed it, but it happened once more.

I haven't noticed this. Do you have a screenshot?

I updated to beta 4 around 7pm Monday night... This gives you a before and after...

 

[prithvi64]

Ofcourse, much smoother and battery is stable. But, have some concerns which haven't been addressed in this build;
1. Contact search either thru phone or contact app has lot of lag. It's irritating so much. After opening phone app, search of any contact takes lots of time.
2. Smart Invert still doesn't compatible with third party apps. Pics are shown in inverted manner in FB, Twitter & WhatsApp.

I’m having the same issue. Which device are you using? I’m on a 6s plus.

 

[prithvi64]

I am using 7. Contact search lagging is very frustrating.

I’m having issues with the BT connection to my Toyota. Some had issues with Beta 3; mine started with Beta 4. My phone now disconnects from the Handsfree when I place outgoing calls and intermittently during calls. I tried re-pairing my iPhone with the car BR, but that didn’t make a difference.

On my iPhone 7 the contacts search with the phone app is super fast. I wonder if you have some corruption in your phone and should do a clean install then restore from backup.

I had the same issue when I was in beta 11. I am back on 10.3.3 and have 0 issues with disconnecting.

I’m really digging the changes made to lock screen notifications

Yea, me too. That’s what got me to jump back in. Seeing 1.5 battery drain in 5 hours though. Only thing high in battery stats is dumb Facebook, 23%. Not sure if the 1.5 is good or not. Seem to think so, I guess.

What’s 1.5?
