iOS 11 Dev Beta 1

[metllicamilitia]

When is the public beta going to be available? It's just the developers beta out now correct?

Public beta will be out in 2-4 weeks if it follows the same rollout as previous betas. Major updates like this Apple waits while any big bugs get fixed before doing a public release.

Has anyone else noticed their device going through a constant boot loop after install? Mine doesn't seem to like the update, installing via both OTA and through iTunes... (iPhone 6s)

Have you tried taking a screenshot yet? The screenshot appears in the bottom left corner of the home screen allowing you to edit and save without switching to the Photos app. That’s awesome!

You could edit it in messages directly, which is where I sent most screenshots, but there were times I was going to email it and wanted to eliminate the extra step.
I plan to update today, depending on how this thread goes

Anyone using with 6s/6s Plus? or even a 6/6 Plus?

So my dock icons don’t have text. This happening to anyone else?

I didn’t care much about texts under icons. If intentional, then I like it.

No issues here.

Haven't installed yet but hopefully you get yours working.

It amuses me they still don't have stock swype and/or dark keyboard.

Installed the beta on my iPod 6, iPhone 5S and iPad Air 2. All running pretty decent so far for a beta 1 (I did except some slowness). Took about 30 minutes for my iPod and iPhone to settle down to a useable state but my iPad took like 4 hours but after leaving them overnight they are performing a lot better now. There are a few design changes I like so far but I question a few of them (like combining the lock screen and notification center into one) but overall not a bad update so far.

Since lockscreen and recents are the same. Can't swipe to clear on the lockscreen. Slides to the camera app ASAP. Ah, beta's. Lol

Things I have noticed:
1. When listening to music or podcasts the lock screen widget time slider is not working and it is not tracking time played and time left
2. Audio will pause after a while (turned off hey Siri since that was the issue on the iOS 10 beta but does not seem to completely correct the issue, but does not occur as often)
3. Unless I am missing something, if turn on type to Siri you lose the ability to use voice. Would like the ability to do both without changing settings.
4. Slide to clear notifications does not seem to be there anymore. Hope that is not permanent.

I do like the new accounts tab in settings and the way iCloud Keychain works now.
The customizable control center is a great improvement.
Doesn't seem iMessage in iCloud is working yet but will be great to have when it does.

i noticed the music timer not working as well

 

[mbar9607]

i do wish i could just remove the background from the dock completely and turn off the carrier name

There's a huge long list still. Just did some research, iOS 11 beta bug list. Craziness #betaguineapigs

Apart from files app, seems polishing to me.

That’s weird it’s working perfectly for me. Life of a beta tester I guess

Yup. The blocking was working fine at first. Then it just stopped and now won’t start again.

 

[chefjayhawk]

Anyone figured out how to add Dropbox or Drive to the File app?

You can't at this time, to my knowledge anyway. It is not working. As betas progress apps are likely to be updated to support the new/changed features.

I was really hoping Apple would have removed the grey around the dock and made it transparent. :-(

Probably not going to happen until iOS 11 is released in the fall to everyone
