It does, yes. It’s not as useful as showing in the status bar or with one swipe, sadly.

There is no 3D Touch to get rid of this. Just tap the AppStore icon next to the camera icon. That should make the bar below the message box disappear.

Yeah, for both the pods and the case.

But, my airpods are currently connected to my phone and they’re in their case. On my phone, the battery levels show up, but on my iPad the airpods don’t show up at all until I flip open the case. Which seems reasonable.

Are you referring to the White overlay that shows individual AirPod battery levels as well as the case? Because that I get, if I'm opening the case up while in that screen. But if I'm using my AirPods and want to see the current battery level it only shows up in my widgets.

It is weird that Apple couldn't find a more elegant solution. We've got a headphone icon already there doing almost nothing. Even something like fading it out as the batteries fade would at least give you an approximate idea without having to unlock your phone.

Is anyone missing the options to follow other Apple Music users? I've go to For You, clicked on my image on the top right and it's not there.

It's there for me, but when I look at the list of friends, it just has "INVITE" for everyone. Tapping that asks me to send something. I don't know if this just means no one uses Apple Music or if I have to send a thing via iMessage or whatever.

Go to restrictions in settings and turn "Music profiles and posts" back on. Like me you probably turned it off two OS' ago to hide connect.

No, that's exactly the problem, it plays the ring now when you use the volume buttons, even when your phone is on silent/vibrate. Before it only previewed the sound when you used the slider on the touchscreen.

Hah, that's hilarious --- it only previews when you're on that Settings page.

OK so if you go to Settings -> Sounds you can flip the switch to revert to the 'change Ringer with buttons if nothing is playing' behaviour, and it does preview your ringer - but only on that screen. I just tested, on iOS 11, if you flip the switch and get OUT of that settings page, your ringer does not preview ... and the volume buttons do change your ringer.

BUT when you flip the switch and use the buttons while on that page in Settings.app, it will preview your ringtone. Because Apple.

I like it. I've accidentally turned down my ringer so many times. And since I'm occasionally on call, that would be a bad thing. I usually have it on silent and vibrate is enough, but when I'm sleeping max volume on the ring tone and alarm clock.

I don't think it's been a default setting though until now. I know I didn't know about it until people started bitching about it.

I should clarify that the actual files are still in place and usable as ringtones and regular alarms. The special Bedtime alarm, though, appears to have been restricted to the builtin "Wake Up Sound"s. Interestingly, if I look at the Bedtime Options screen my custom sound still shows as active but if I try to change it it shows as "None".

So to get a custom morning alarm tone I have to use the regular alarm system and not the purpose-built Bedtime one even though it worked perfectly fine before :shrug:

Quick question for tomorrow’s iPhone 8 launch: I have an appointment for an in-store pick up for an iPhone 8 but I might be a hour late. Anyone have any experience as to what they might do to my reservation? How long do they usually hold it before they sell it to someone else?

Did you pay for it? Then it's yours.

Also, you can always call the store and ask.

So, the location services arrow is stuck on for everyone? Not sure if it was on from the get-go with iOS 11, but I was playing with privacy settings and certainly toggled it on, but now isn't going away after turning it off.

Also, I used to be able to pull down notification center using Reachability by pulling down in the hunk of blank space but that appears to be gone. :(

Mine is always white, as well as the Bluetooth icon, which used to be grayed out when not actually connected to anything.

laff look at this scrub

(The thumb is usually, like, 2" or whatever and usually a hand adjustment away from the home button, but as a filthy southpaw my thumb is almost always in prime position for the 3D Touch task switcher. Pretty sure it's easier to trigger right-handed, too... but maybe I'm #holdingitwrong)

I barely use Messages.app as it is thanks to FB messenger but gently caress whatever stupid oval office deicded that god drat sticker bar should be there ALL THE TIME.

also why is the bluetooth icon in th system tray always 'on' now? when you turn it off and on again it flashes like its connecting to something too, then it just stays on again? how the gently caress am I supposed to know if I actually have something connected to my device without going into settings?

The 'totally customisable but not at all' control center is poo poo too. I cant make the changes I want, and the previous layout was significantly better.

There is a lot of absolutely ridiculous styling changes for change sake in this release and none of them are an improvement over how things were.
