Pretty stable but some shortcuts @control center don’t work as Bluetooth, Wifi sometimes.

I was connected to a BT speaker and when I tapped the Bluetooth toggle in Control Center it disconnected. It sure doesn’t work the way it was on iOS 10. We will see what the next Beta makes of it.

What I dislike about iOS 11 is the lock screen notification look. I don’t want to see my lock screen wallpaper every time I swipe down to see my notifications.

I thought it was pretty clear from the keynote that the notifications shade is now merged with the lockscreen, with the caveat that you can look at the lockscreen with the phone actually unlocked. Well, you can do that now on iOS 10 if you unlock with Touch ID without pressing the home button.

I'm enjoying it, with a few nitpicks:

• Battery isn't great
• Control Center is cluttered and I can't find the flashlight as easily as before
• Trying to figure out how to launch an app from a notification like I did before (user error)
• Getting used to the new app tray in messages

I'm putting watchOS 4 on my watch now... see how that works.

I’m NOT a fan of not being able to launch an app directly from a lock screen notification. Hopefully they bring it back. The only workaround I’ve found is to launch from Notification Center but that’s not nearly as convenient.

Force press the notification, then press again and it'll launch. Not ideal, but it works.

Wake to Raise, then unlock with resting your finger on the home button and tapping that notification works too.

I'll agree. My one complaint has to do with the lock screen and notification shade. I really hope they make it more like it has been under iOS 10.

Re: iOS 11 - 48hrs later

I tried Upgrading iOS10 to iOS 11 which I knew better to do, but was lazy, it was plagued with all sorts of bugs, to many to list. I dealt with it for a few days until I couldn’t take it no more.

So today I did a clean install, setup iPhone 7 plus as new phone. Installed my apps that I use most, Line, FB, Dashlane, MS Office, twitter, Google, some banking apps and such, Running stable and solid so far. A few copy and paste hiccups and a little sluggish here and there, the common known bugs. Running it as my daily driver now.

I would recommend to anyone upgrading to backup all important info to PC and do a clean install.

My battery has steadily gotten worse. So instead if dealing with restoring(I don't have time for that stuff), I took my sim out and wait until next beta. Back on my s8+ until then.

You don’t have to restore. Download the 10.3.2 ipsw and delete the beta profile and update to 10.3.2 through iTunes. Be sure to turn off find my iPhone before updating.

I never said anything about downgrading...

You said you didn’t have time for restoring so I gave you another option without losing your data and not having to switch phones.

I have no reason to go back to 10.3.2. I have 3 phones and I swap sims all the time. I'm an iPhone guru. Not here looking for help. Stated what I have found after 48 hours on the beta. As this thread title is about.

Sorry for trying to be helpful. Hopefully somebody else will appreciate the help I tried to offer. Have a great day.

What a shame

Re: iOS 11 - 48hrs later

Phone was bricked for about 10 minutes. Eventually it came back on. Can’t really complain much, knowing this is the first beta and all. Other than that, all is back to normal

Re: iOS 11 - 48hrs later

I was in meetings out of town when it launched, I don't know that I want to test it on my phone however on my iPad Pro? I think that I am going to give it a whirl.
