The Calendar icon for some reason is white, only displays the day/month when I launch it, then disappears after a few seconds. The Mini 4 is a different story. The 'swipe from right' multi-tasking doesn't work at all - like, it's enabled in the settings, it just doesn't work, like the swipe from right event just doesn't get triggered. Worked fine in iOS 10.. The dock is decent, but somehow my iPad is running very hot and even swiping between pages on the home screen is laggy/stuttery. All my apps work fine, typical iOS things work fine, it's just slow for some reason and lacking polish, and obviously the multitasking bug. If you rely on your iOS device for Important Things, don't install the beta. If you don't have a panic attack when your iOS device isn't working perfectly, go for it. It's clearly unfinished, that's about it.

Once an app is in side-by-side mode you can swipe it in/out but you can’t change/initiate side-by-side that way anymore.

A common use-case for me was swiping from the right to bring up a calculator, how am I supposed to do that now? I can't seem to enter side by side mode at all, even from the app switcher / overview view. edit: I should note that under Settings > Multitasking, swipe from right is still a setting you can enable

I'm going off of what I've seen in demo videos.

I can't seem to enter side by side mode at all, even from the app switcher / overview view. Have you tried dragging from the dock? Maybe there’s some bugginess still but at least as it’s implemented on the pro it seems clear that swiping in from the right is only meant to work with the app you’re currently multitasking with. Pulling down on it it switches it from a floating window to the traditional side-by-side instead of scrolling through apps like it did before. e: apparently there’s a bug that breaks drag and drop if you have “reduced motion” enabled, so that may be an issue susan b buffering fucked around with this message at 15:25 on Jun 27, 2017 |

I'll fiddle with it when I get home. All I want is to be able to bring up Calculator or 1Password side by side like I used to, but I'm pretty sure I'm just encountering a bug. C'est la vie, c'est la beta.

Are they definitely removing swipe from the right edge to multitask? That was WAY better than the current implementation. Way too many different swipe gestures going on at the moment

I vaguely remember seeing the new screenshot functionality on an iPad demonstration. Is it in the same on iPhones? I take, edit and send screenshots on my phone a lot so having immediate access to one after taking it would be amazing.

You can take a screenshot, multiple screenshots, and they get placed in a stack in the lower left hand corner. You can tap the stack and you have edit controls (pen tool etc) on each screenshot. Then you tap Done and you have the option of saving them or discarding them. Again if you haven't figured it out yet, this is iPhone 6S 64gb with 11.0 public beta.

If I'm not mistaken you can not downgrade to iOS 10 if you are on the newest beta. Be careful

I haven't noticed really any worse of battery life on my work iPhone 6S with the new beta. That said, I am liking the subtle UI changes but the new notification lock screen stuff is silly.

I put the beta on last night. My Kevo app, which controls my deadbolt, now flashes the blue bar constantly with a message that Kevo is using my location. I think it was always using my location before, but now it's got that message up there which is annoying so I turned off location services for it (setting it to when in the app only did not make it go away, which seems like a bug).

I hate the new control center, I hate that you can't force close every app, I hate that I have to long press to get to apps from their lock screen notifications.

Alright so I'm back home to my iPad Mini 4. Reduce Motion is off, and... no, swipe from right doesn't work. Trying to swipe down from an app's status bar usually either does nothing or triggers the 'swipe down for lock screen/Today/camera' view. Going to the multitasking switcher, there seems to no way to move an app into a side view. Again, because Settings.app does have a setting for enabling swipe-from-right to bring an app in from the side, I think this is just a bug.

Just because an app appears in the list doesn't mean its open. It's literally just a series of screenshots of every app you've run. Only the most recent handful have any chance of being "open."

What I was accomplishing was not having a loving giant list of poo poo I opened once on that screen, which I use to quickly switch between the two or three things I'm currently using. So basically gently caress off, and stop telling other people how to use their poo poo. Also holy poo poo, is there seriously not a way to loving manually sort podcast episodes within a station anymore? What the gently caress?

Force closing apps is actually worse than leaving them open.

To be fair there are some games that need to be forced closed for one reason or another. Besides that though....
