iOS 8 Beta 4 for developers is available - Discuss bugs etc. here

Is anyone else having problems with wifi? My wifi stops working throughout the day. I will have to turn wifi off and then back on to get it working again. Eventually it won't turn back on and I will have to reset network settings.

I have no problems with Wifi, I always am in Airplane mode/connected to Wifi when it's available.

So here is an interesting question/observation. When I use my mophie case and try the "hey Siri" it doesn't work but when I actually plug it into the wall outlet it works. How can it tell the difference lol.

And I still don't have weather. Good thing I have around 10 weather apps to help me

When I open the camera app, it starts playing audio from control center.

"Hey Siri" works fine on my Mophie case.

Wondering if anyone has gotten continuity to work with an iMac with a BT 4.0 LE Doggle? My iMax is just old enough for it not to work with built-in BT.

Man iOS8 on iPad is awesome, adds a lot of value to it.
One small thing I observed is that when you go to the multitasking view it often will just show black screens where the other apps should be open. So the preview seems partially defective. Apart from that very happy though.

I have tried Beta 4 on my iPhone 5s and twice now, it worked fine for about an hour and then all my email accounts setup on the phone were just deleted and I could not create new accounts. Anyone else seen this?

On my iPad Mini Retina it is way more stable though I am getting some weird issues with Hangouts and the keyboard not working. But overall better on there.

Battery life is definitely not as good as beta 3

Did you restore from a backup or restore as new? I don't have an iPhone 5S, but I've not experienced any problems with email accounts on my iPhone 5 running beta 4

In regard to Hangouts, that's to be expected being that none of the developers have updated their software to work priorly with iOS 8 yet.

I restored from an iCloud backup on my iPhone.

As for Hangouts, just seen no-one mention it up to know, so getting the info out there

 

[JimboJones2268]

If you read Apple's release notes for beta 4, or reviewed this forum thread, Apple noted that restoring from an iCloud backup after installing beta 4 may not work correctly.
As for Hangouts, there is a separate thread for apps that work (or not) with the beta.

Sure, I saw that. But it is strange that the restore worked fine for a bit and then suddenly went wonky! Maybe an itunes restore would give me better luck.

I just noticed in the App Store apps now say weather they support family sharing or not in the info section.

How long did you run it? For me it gets better everyday. It was rough the first two days but now it seems pretty stable.
