Thank you, @Banglazed!

 

[digitalexplr]

Darn, you are quick!

I had to downgrade back to beta 2, which is rock solid. I’ll wait to see if the Safari crashing bug is fixed.

 

[GCHASE1995]

Went back to 12.2 because safari crashing and Pokémon GO causing my phone to lag. Hopefully this beta will fix it.

 

[ram130]

This should be a smooth beta.

 

[dannyyankou]

By the way, there’s an issue that’s been around since 12.2. If you’re typing within a website in Safari and you double tap a word to try to highlight it, the page zooms out. It can’t tell the difference between double tapping text and double tapping empty space like it used to.

Edit: Actually it works fine on this site, but there’s many sites it doesn’t work on.

No OTA for me in California yet. Fun.

It takes a little while, be patient. Longest I've seen is an hour.

 

[ram130]

OTA is being processed now. Look out for it in a few moments.

 

[rocknrolldoggy]

[Hans300]

Apple is trolling us today

Has anyone on this forum ever set up a concentrated effort by its members on betas to submit specific bug reports to Apple to bring attention to long-standing bugs?

In other words, focus on a specific bug, write up copy to paste into the Feedback, and that maybe it will then come to Apple's attention?

I've thought about this for a while, but given iOS 12.3's focus on the TV app, I'm particularly frustrated by the fact that the majority of movies ported into Apple from Movies Anywhere do not show that HD tags on the TV app (they do on iTunes on the desktop, as well the Videos app on older legacy iOS devices, and of course play in HD) even when you own them in HD. 12.3 would be a great opportunity to fix this "bug".

Still nothing here...

This would a great idea. Maybe have a voting thread and then pool everyone in to report.
