Public Beta - available now (7/9/15)

[razza1987]

Mine has been running pretty smooth so far. I do have a small issue that if I need to reboot it takes a while before I can actually enter my passcode. The screen seems frozen for about 7 seconds. I haven't had any of the Safari issues you did.

My phone became an absolute nightmare lol. The keyboard appearing in the settings of the phone was the funniest thing I have ever seen lol

Exactly. It means that I see the things that were happening as more hilarious than the end of the world lol

Wtf. I downloaded the restore and now iTunes is telling me "there was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone. The requested resource was not found." NOW I am getting annoyed

Regarding the News app, is your Region set to US?

Wow. My keyboard just popped up in settings lmao.

I'm jealous of all you people that seem to have a completely fine beta. Mine is beyond buggy lmao View attachment 84919

You didn't accidentally click in the search bar at the top of settings did you? That's the only time I get keyboard up in setting

My phone has been non stop asking me to sign into my iCloud account even though I am already signed into it. I think the keyboard just got stuck at one point

Ok I had to put my phone back into recovery mode again. For some reason it had come out of recovery mode. Now it seems to be extracting the software

Got it. It took a while to populate, but I don't see a way to tweak that info. Apparently, it's not related to the News app content, either. I guess it's not fully baked at this point.

So far everything seems to be running smooth for me, except the news app crashing but I don't really like it anyway because most articles you have to click to read more, I hate that, and I will stick with newsify where you don't have to do those extra steps. One more thing, still nothing showing up in my search, does location have to be on for it to show up?

The speed of the public beta website today was so much faster you would swear it was a different website. I am currently downloading the beta on my phone and it even seems to be downloading faster too. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I down have the same installation issue I did yesterday where I had to hit install three times before it would install. Before that it gave me an error message. I'm thinking that may have been my problem. If this doesnt sort the issue I'm not doing this again. I only get 35gb between my phone and wifi every month and so far doing this I have used up close to 6gb. 1.7gb x2 for downloading the beta and 2.26gb for downloading the restore. Please let it work this time xd

Dumped it again. Not worth it at this time.

 

[razza1987]

My phone updated but now it's currently stuck on updating icloud settings in the set up...

Public beta has been a little glitchy but definitely worth it for me.

Not sure if I'm a fan of the new app switcher. In iOS 8 you could see the full card which helped when your trying to reference something without going into that app. I do like the the cards bigger though.

Love the spotlight suggestions!!

Like the fact that reminders stay on your lock screen until you mark them completed too.

I finally got the pull down notifications by time!!!
