iOS 8.1.1 Beta 1 Fixes/Changes/Bugs

[BergerFan]

Has the 'custom Homescreen wallpaper zooming when rotated to landscape' on the 6 Plus issue been fixed, so the image doesn't zoom, like with the default wallpapers?

5fps. Talk about a massive over exaggeration.

Someone put a video up of the 6 Plus rotating on Spotlight and the performance is identical to my Air on 8.1. It's choppy but it's not 5fps ... and having used an Air 2 I can tell you it's sure as hell not 30fps.

I just tried this on my Air 2 and confirmed that the transition is not smooth either.

By the way, there was obviously a bug after updating because I definitely didn't have Transparencies disabled and Safari had no transparencies. I reboot my iPad today and the transparencies are back in Safari as is the horrible lag when you tap the address bar (while on a site) to bring up the keyboard.

The lag when the text in the address bar goes grey and slides to the left to reveal the full site address is horrid.

do mail notifications clear from the lockscreen if you check the mail from a different device/desktop?

this is my one major annoyance with ios 8

I wish they would allow us to clear notifications from the lock screen! I just read Engadget's review on Android Lollipop and the new features are really nice, like being able to customize who's texts show up on the lock screen.

Medical ID doesn't show up on lock screen when you choose it to do so...

Works for me, you have to select the emergency field from the passcode screen.

You already can. Swipe left on the notification and hit the X button. That's how you clear notifications on the home screen.

Can anyone tell me if these bugs have been fixed?
1. When I view a photo, the status bar still hangs over the photo
2. When I play a video in a text message, it'll play in the tiny frame it sends in rather than going to a separate, larger screen like it should
3. Date/swipe to unlock disappear on occasion from the lock screen (see photo below)
4. When in text messages, changing orientation to landscape makes the text messages disappear

Thanks!

Massive improvement on my iPad Air.

Absolutely delighted. Safari is better because they've removed the unnecessary transparencies on the favourites box and keyboard.

Pinch to home is so much smoother and it feels more responsive. Very pleased.

Does anyone agree with this? If the pinch to home is so much smoother, i dont care about my current jailbreak. I just wish animation stuttering is fixed.

On my 4S, exactly the same.

Pinch to home is far smoother than 8.1, it's on par with 7.1.2.

Did they bring back "blood glucose" as an input option in the Health app?

2. Don't tap the play button, press the image area and the video will play full screen

Does Safari copy paste links fixed? For example copy link via share menu panel and try to paste link in forum.
Thanks

Nope

 

[mcdj]

Does it fix the unresponsive links that crop up on a Safari page, where no links work until you scroll up or down a little?

Go ahead and rotate the keyboard using safari on an air vs air 2 and get back to me

-Share meniu reordering bug fixed

What is this bug? I haven't noticed it yet.

 

[atlatnesiti]

"Safari activity spinning wheel bug fixed"
No it hasn't been fixed.... Still spinning I'm afraid...
Not all websites, but cultofmac is a good (bad) example I'm afraid...
Seems like their webpage is loading indefinitely...

 

[funkymonkeyboy]

Did they fix the Apple TV pop-up menu on the iPad?

When you open control center and tap the Apple TV button, the pop-up is so small (and the list is moved down a bit) that you can't see the mirroring option unless you try scrolling (which isn't very apparent to the user that you can scroll a pop-up menu like this). This bugs me.

Not fixed.

What?

 

[Paddle1]

What?

How do you know?

 

[C DM]

How do you know?

Hah. For a moment I was thinking what does hardware or homework ("hw") have to do with it all and what "noe" is in reference to. What a difference just a few extra characters (that aren't exactly all that hard to include to begin with) make.

I just tried this on my Air 2 and confirmed that the transition is not smooth either.

If you are all saying the animation is the same on the air 2 vs the air for spotlight rotation, then I don't know what you're smoking. It may not be butter smooth but it's a hell of a lot smoother than it was. It's a fact.
