iOS 12 Developer Beta 5 is ready for download

[bamf-hacker]

I have been testing and validating iOS for a very very very long time and iOS 12 is by far the most stable beta to date. I guess  is really dialing back on features and putting the team on performance.

In fact, it is stable enough to put the family on the beta to help me test, well not the wife, don’t want to hear her wrath in case something doesn’t work.

Absolutely. Like you, I have been beta testing iOS for a very long time and iOS 12 is the best beta experience I can remember. Kids have it on their iPads but also steering clear of my wife’s iPhone for the time being.

I don’t dare put it on my wife’s phone or iPad. She uses both for business. If an a certain app or something doesn’t work, it could cost us a lot of money. Sure she could downgrade but it’s time consuming which is not ideal for her.

Twice yesterday my phone re-sprung while hitting send key on an iMessage. One of them was pretty long so typing it all out again was no fun. Surprised for this to happen in a beta 5. I’d expect that more in an early beta.

I have had better luck with iOS 12 betas so far. On beta 4 I had 1 respring and that was it.
I guess it’s also device specific of how many resprings one has.

A few hiccups here and there after using it for 4 days...

- multiple resprings when typing a reply in messages.

- phone alarm goes off at. 5:45 every morning even if it isn’t set to. And it isn’t the full alarm sequence, just a notification and one ring of the atlas tone. It’s odd. Nothing is set in clock, calendar or bedtime apps.

Yesterday, I had one re-spring while using the Messages app, but that was it. No other issue to date.

Two resprings using WhatsApp and still a Facebook crashing issue

This happened to me a couple times on the public beta as well.

Yeah it happened to one of my buddies too. Looks to be a random bug.

I just noticed that when I am on a call and have the speaker activated, the speaker icon indicates that the speaker switches off, and I lose sound, and then switches back on and the speaker works again. Anyone else notice this? Using an iPhone X.

Just had my first respring, while trying to send a message....how annoying

I can’t say I’ve run into this issue & I use the speaker option all the time....or maybe I just haven’t paid attention to it. I’ll try to pay attention & see if it happens.

I’ve had my phone re-spring twice while hitting the send key on iMessages.

I have had same issue. Two resprings. Mine were while trying to dictate messages using Siri through the handsfree on my Toyota Entune audio system. The Entune is garbage, and my sense was that the issue is with the BT stack and not iOS 12.

Beta 6 should be coming up in a few mins.
