[Natya Sadella]

Every new beta: woooow it’s soooo snappy omg :-O

Outside the EU there isn't much if anything.
Inside the EU there's downloading apps direct from some websites - if you're crazy enough

I am yet to find those websites and developers matching all of Apple’s conditions. Apple really do not want it to be easy for people to implement or use.

The bureaucracy involved for devs to qualify for website downloading matches nicely with the gobbledygook in EU directives.
I want Apple to win this crazy standoff.

And I would very much like Apple to make iOS and iPadOS work as macOS does, as far as it concerns installation of the apps. This will resolve all of the EC demands and complaints (else they would be going after macOS as well) and keep most users happy.

Did Apple tweak the weather widget? Not sure if Im going crazy or what but the temperature (1) looks smaller in font. I swear it was bigger in font.

how battery life in this beta??

15 ProMax and iPad Pro11

When swiping from the left to “go back” for apps that allow it, the swipe now executes in slow motion.

Badges on apps are still out of whack - big ones for me are Mail, Teams, and Telegram.

Battery seems okay - nothing eye catching at the moment.

Most Notifications have stopped working with my AWU (not on beta) and calls are not showing on the AWU.

Well I can’t make a telephone call now, so there’s that. 😐

Wait, so these things can make telephone calls too?

The Fitness app when started from the iPhone will NOT connect to the Apple Watch (I have Ultra 2) when an activity is started. The Fitness app when started on an iPad or an Apple TV, WILL connect to the Apple Watch.
Can someone confirm?

Face ID and Unlock with Apple Watch no longer works with 17.5.1 beta. I've reset the iPhone but no luck.

Doesn’t work for me either.

Reported to Apple Feedback.

Hopefully it will get fixed next week.

Edited...
Tried to erase Face ID and set it up again, but cannot set up Face ID at all.

AppStore down for anyone else?

 

[john991]

AppStore down for anyone else?

Yes me too. 😮

 

[StumpyBloke]

Yes me too.

And Apple TV+. This is not a beta issue. All my non-beta devices are affected too.

 

[Reeneman]

AppStore down for anyone else?

Yes, here as well. Germany

 

[UliBaer]

Confirm: AppStore down in Germany...

 

[jazzzyJeff]

Yup! Apple TV can’t load home page. App Store down as well.

17.4.1

Edit: Can’t play my purchases as well. Entire Apple TV inaccessible. Not just ATV+.

Oh ok was just wondering if it was on my end or a beta thing or something else.
