FYI:That is your Apple Watch usage and storage, not your iPhone’s.

Yes, that was the discussion we were having, battery life on Apple Watch is trash on ios 13 PB 4. Something in the iOS beta is causing something on the watch to run causing battery drain.

Yeah I'm at 60% right now with 5 hours to go. More phone usage today vs yesterday. So I really think using the phone is triggering something on the watch.

Only problem I’ve noticed so far, is my Fitbit will stop syncing after a few days until I restart my phone. Not a huge deal, but annoying at times.

Issue I have personally noticed the most is in Transformers Earth Wars. When going to swipe up to switch out of the app in landscape mode, it will sometimes gray out the bar at the bottom. Turn off the display and back on into the app and it will sometimes let me close it from the side (normally the bottom of the phone) to switch out of the app.

Other than that, it looks like the keyboard issues have been resolved and I've been giving the iOS Keyboard more of a chance.

At the current pace of Public Betas, how may do we think we will see before the October release of the Gold Master? I was thinking we should likely get 2-3 more to try out.

I was hoping they would move into weekly updates and we’d get one today to possibly fix the watch battery drain, but no luck. And yes, at least 2-3 more betas. Probably more.

Developer Beta 6 released, public Beta 5 likely later today. Let’s hope it fixes the watch battery drain.
