iOS 14 Public Beta 5

Hot off the presses. Go get it wherever you get fine software updates (Hint: Settings app)

Thanks for the update. I have the dev beta counterpart installed and everything is buttery smooth thus far.

It fixed the issues with AirPods and telephone calling. I’ve still not gotten notifications about my watch being fully charged though.

I’ve been getting these. Are you using Watch OS7? The watch also has a good morning screen for me now.

Pokémon Go still doesn’t work for me, though.

Going to archive a backup and give this a spin.

After you’ve installed it, let us know your thoughts about it, if you don’t mind...

Thinking about doing the public beta when I get home from a trip. With the new Note 20 ultra out I’ve been itching for something new to play with, I resisted all weekend from running to the local att store to buy one. I’m thinking if I do this beta and have new features to play with it’ll keep me happy till the iPhone 12 gets officially announced.

It's certainly the smoothest running Beta I've run so far. No more weather widget glitches, and the majority of my apps work. With the notable exception of Pokemon Go, so I'm going back to 13 until 14 is live (OR...... Beta 6 lol).

do you suggest downloading the betas or wait until the final release

I would wait for the final release if I were you!

Personally I’m going to wait, iOS 14 gm should be released in a week or two.

Not long to go.

I didn’t think the GM came out until iOS 14 officially releases with the new phones

Try about a month or so. Definitely not a week or two. Although the beta is very good.

Nope

Try about a month or so. Definitely not a week or two. Although the beta is very good.

iOS 13 gm was released on September 10 2019.
iOS 12 gm was released on September 12 2018.

Perhaps it is delayed, or perhaps it’s not, regardless we will know more next week.

I finally got a chance to install this update. Seems pretty smooth so far

what about battery

what about battery

Battery is as good as iOS 13 but will probably be better when it comes out of beta. I have no complaints.
