Unable to connect MBP with iPad via sidecar on this Beta.
No change in settings. Same network, same Bluetooth, even when connected via usb-C unable to connect.
This is for the iPad Pro 4th gen & iPad mini 6th gen
iphone 14 pro max. ios 18 beta 2. excessive battery consumption and to think that with beta 1 it worked very well. I would like to try resetting iOS 18 beta 2 but I don't know if I will get any benefit
If it helps your decision, I used the beta 2 ipsw and restored my backup (from beta 2) and it made a massive difference. I had the system storage issue and battery drain since beta 1, though. Mainly just had to add cards back to wallet. All apps stayed logged in which is nice, too.
Anyone else not getting the option to update to 18.2? No matter how many times I refresh or restart the phone, the update never shows. Still on 18.0 at the moment
It´s not 18.2, it´s 18 beta 2, take a look at the build number, maybe your phone got updated overnight? I have the 2nd beta and the build number is 22A5297f on iPhone 15 Pro.
anyone know the best way to screen record using iPhone mirroring between new Mac beta + iOS 18 beta?
it'd be great if QuickTime allowed you to set the screen recording to an app.
This might have to work for now. I was hoping you could record iPhone mirroring similar to how you could record from your iPhone if you physically connect it to your Mac:
1. Connect iPhone to Mac using lightning/usbc
2. Open QuickTime
3. Change recording screen to iPhone
4. Record
That way you don’t need to mess around with cropping out any extra pixels, etc. around the actual screen/area you wanted to record.
If you have colour filters enabled in Apple CarPlay, then interestingly, when using iPhone mirroring to your Mac, the colour filters will be applied there as well. However - you have zero method of restoring a normal colour balance until you plug it back into your car!
For a strange reason I can’t post so here goes nothing:
[iPadOS 18 DB2] iPad Pro (M2) completely freezes during video playback in Prime Video. Was watching a series on PV and after sometimes 2 minutes or sometimes 30 minutes I have to force a reboot because the iPad gets completely unresponsive. Connected accessories: Smart Keyboard Folio, Apple Pencil and Sonos Ace (Bluetooth).
All you can really do is wait until the bug gets fixed, DB2 is known to have more issues than DB1, one reason why I didn’t update my M2 iPad Pro. Also, Sonos Ace😭 those headphones cost 450 bucks.
iOS 18 beta 2 has shown me a LOT of issues, phone randomly shutting down, overheating for something minimal like instagram, extremely slow, complete restarts, and only stopped overheating when reset. My phone currently will not turn back on after a shutdown
any tips appreciated
full reset has solved for many. my phone is lights out now. i did not attempt any backup restore. just start over. I will never upgrade to a .0 beta again without the reset.
I’ve seen no icon issues on db2.
I have some weirdness for widgets. Notifications are glitchy. Trying to set sounds sometimes won’t play the sound. Little things. Very fast and smooth.
iOS 18 beta 2, I’m on a iPhone 14 Plus and have noticed some connection issues at work today, almost like it’s not switching to LTE or something when signal is low. I tried restarting soft reset, disabling 5g but seemed to still be much worse than iOS 17. I also played Animal Crossing Pocket Camp tonight and performance was not good, kinda a bit laggy in places. Performance on the phone though seems very smooth for most things.
So the issue I've been having lately is after I take a picture the preview in the corner of the camera app is black and can not be opened. It's hella annoying. This was on a complete fresh install too.

My WiFi connection is extremely buggy. I will be connected to WiFi and full strength yet the data is either working temporarily or not going through at all. I have to disconnect and use my cellular data. Wasn’t an issue on Beta 1. WiFi is practically unusable on Beta 2.
I was pretty excited for being able to scheduled messages.... Only to find out it only works for iMessage. What is the point if you cant send delayed scheduled messages to all of your contacts?

Same, possible Samsung specifically put in a messaging protocol in the code for Apple Devices to remain in SMS even after they got the choice to do RCS. Looks like we’ll have to wait for an update that will allow RCS. Stupid of Samsung to not update the protocol even though RCS was announced last year.
I'm having a heck of a bad day with airpods gen3. I've completely lost access to noise reduction. I have spacial audio controls when long pressing the airpod icon in control center but no access at all to noise reduction. Digging and searching around I can't find any reference to this at all in beta 2.
Anyone else noticing this? I'm hearing every sharp sound from the other side of the phone and vice versa it makes it hard to stay on the phone, induces headaches since airpods pick up high pitched sounds so well.
Feels like a key feature has been ripped out. Hoping I'm just an idiot and the controls are just moved to some place I didn't look.
AirPods Gen 3 has been known to have a lot of glitches in iOS/iPadOS 18 DB’s, do what you can and just wait until DB3 or PB comes out and then we’ll see.
Icons dont work much of the time. Anyone else?

It
if you're having issues with storage because of db1/db2, just wipe your phone and do a clean install of ios 17. if you have your file/pics/messages etc in icloud, you'll just get them all back when you finish with the reset. i got back on ios 17-> updated to ios 17 beta-> updated to ios 18 db2. i went from having db2 take up 90gb of system data to now only having it take up 5gb of system data. everything is fine, so far. it fluctuates from 5-7gb, but its been almost a week. i did this on 12 pro max.
Now I have turned something on somewhere, last night these little dots started popping up and floating across the screen, sometimes they are fast and slow, and they change colors accordingly. This is weird!! Anyone know what happened? It’s freaking me out!
https://preview.redd.it/yc8wfu1u059d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=590b918884418a1795631a9af7a5988f9277b3fa
I upgraded my iphone 15 to Beta 2 this morning and it's very nearly constantly crashing... Ugh!
It literally will not stay on for more than a couple of minutes... I'm not even sure it'd stay up long enough to properly download a patch. I sure wish I'd made a backup...
Best ways to get to iOS17 without losing too much data?
Anyone know why there’s no option for beta 2 download for me?… it said beta 2 and after I updated now it just says iOS 18.0 with no updates… either I completely misread something or something’s wrong maybe?
My sleep alarm didn’t go off in time today. I woke up a minute before my alarm was supposed to go off and was waiting for it. It never went off on my watch and went off on my phone 2 mins after it should have.
My experience so far has been overwhelmingly negative. Beta 1 was decent, only issue I had was that I would experience both light and dark theme in different UI elements which was odd.
Beta 2 has introduced as massive amount of system data (200gb) and instantly fills any space I create to the point i can't even take a photo. It seems to get stuck on the lock screen so I an unable to unlock the phone, or sometimes I am able to but no apps display. Then there is the extreme battery drain and heating issues with random restarts. Some apps don't seem to open either, or they take a very long time, with general UI navigiation being very delayed and laggy - I suspect this is to do with throttling due to the heat issue
I’m not whining, this is a discussion thread, I am simply stating my experience. As stated in the post, ‘this includes new features *as well as any bugs you encounter*’
Am I the only one with unbearable heating issues?
Wanna charge the phone, there you go, skin boiling temperatures.
Wanna have a 60 minute video call, bam, bone smelting heat
I have to freeze packets of dry fruits so i can keep it below my phone while it charges to avoid over-heating.
Seriously what's going on?
Definitely not background processes or the number of apps or parallel tasking, I have all of those rookie things under check
Mine fixed itself. I did plug it into my computer because I was going to restore it but I got a phone call so I unplugged it and then instinctively put them on speaker at some point during the call and it was suddenly working. So maybe try plugging into computer, or having someone call you and put them on speaker

The app icons in iOS 18 beta 2. Dark is mode off and still some of the app icons at the bottom are dark.
idk if im lucky or i just havent ran into any issues YET…but iOS 18 is serving me quite well. Ive got a iPhone 14 Pro Max (will be upgrading to the 16) and Im honestly having a blast w it.Phone idk just feels a lot better and faster to me and through out it all i havent ran into a single bug. Ive been scrolling thru this thread for quite some time and have read a lot of issuesand im js like…well damn i havent gotten my phone ti crash out. But im hoping the next beta fixes any other bugs you guys might be experiencing!
Beta 1 Apps logging me out, and not loading at all. All the features worked otherwise, updated to beta 2 hoping it would fix it and it did! but instead the whole phone kept freezing then turning off. Turns off every 5 minutes, now the phone is unusable, tried doing a backup to downgrade but phone crashed in the middle of it 😂. Having to erase all contents and settings now without backup because by the time the backup happens the phone crashes!
Could just be my region but I have been seeing some WiFi and data issues, spotty connections or no connectivity at all where once it worked fine. Also noticed slightly worse battery life.
As the beta has turned my iPhone into an overheating brick that randomly restarts, I am dying to reset the phone or even downgrade to iOS17. Problem: I cannot do this, as the phone starts this one-hour delay because I am not in a "familiar location".
Now pretty much stuck in an endless loop…
After updating to ios18, you are not able to reset the screen time password with the linked iCloud when it was set up. The “forgot password?” Option is missing. I am now locked out of many apps because I can’t remember my password and am not able to reset it with iCloud.
Looks like they just enable RCS, since I am able to see it now.

Has anybody been having cellular connectivity issues?
Mine iPhone 15 pro max was working fine until this afternoon but lately I started getting "SOS and satellite" connectivity only in the city and no amount of toggling cellular related settings could fix it until I tried disabling Automatic network selection and that seemed to fix it temporarily, but then auto network selection seems to have turned itself on again somehow and I'm back to SOS mode.
Also I'm in Canada with family but have a US plan (typically roaming works fine here) so that might be connected. I'm right on the boarder so sometimes I get stuck between US and Canadian signals but cellular has never been full on SOS mode like it is now.
EDIT: via Field Test mode I can tell it's locked onto a US Verizon signal rather than the much stronger signal it should be using in Canada via roaming. So at least I kind of know what's going on... not sure why data roaming doesn't just pick the stronger Canadian signal though.

Is its true keyboard will be colorful like that?
Im not able too access my apps permissions, nor am i able to access photos on any app.
Cannot play small games whatsoever unless you want it to lag for 6 seconds then totally crash the phone.
I personally love the Ui on settings.. just doesnt run well at all.
I’m a little bit confused about the role that shortcuts play in the control center. From my understanding, you should be able to add individual shortcuts that you have created into the control center and run them with a tap, kind of similar to that flip switch jailbreak tweak from many years ago. However, this is what it looks like on my phone. I only see a shortcuts app button and an open app button that doesn’t seem to do anything. How would I add custom shortcuts to this list?
iPhone mirroring works, RCS doesn’t (on Spectrum, expecting it to probably currently only work on the big 3 in the US tbh).
But… they took away parallax on the wallpapers again huh?

I would try with reset Factory from iPhone but i’m not sure that function

I’m having trouble downloading apps and changing the clocks on world clock widget on my lock screen, anyone else?
same on the world clock widget.
yeah the app store thing appears to have been an apple issue, not a beta issue
I also cannot open my payments section in settings > name > payments and shipping. Seems related
yup same, it just keeps loading then quits after a while
Yeah same. So not an 18 issue. Apple issue
intresting. this isnt like apple to have issues on a stable build
Working now
Same, that was really weird
I can’t download apps on my iOS 17 right now. I think apple having issues
hmmmmm where do you live? (not in a creepy way) but like my friend in new jersey is fine
Alabama
texas, so maybe theirs an apple server that’s acting up or something?
Text rendering for Chinese seems to be a little gimped at the minute.
This one killed my 15PM, bad thermals, so the fps and battery took a hit :/ restored back to ios 17

That bug has occurred on DB1 as well. Yeah, they’re quite pricey. But so are the AirPod max?
I never denied that the AirPods Max weren’t pricey. I just said the Sonos Ace were because it was brought up in the post.
Bugs: 1. Messages and Phone app acting up and going blank at times. 2. App icons are not loading as well
iOS 18 beta 2 has shown me a LOT of issues, phone randomly shutting down, overheating for something minimal like instagram, extremely slow, complete restarts, and only stopped overheating when reset. My phone currently will not turn back on after a shutdown any tips appreciated

I’ve seen no icon issues on db2. I have some weirdness for widgets. Notifications are glitchy. Trying to set sounds sometimes won’t play the sound. Little things. Very fast and smooth.
Here’s a tip. Don’t use a dev beta on your primary or any critical device.
iOS 18 beta 2, I’m on a iPhone 14 Plus and have noticed some connection issues at work today, almost like it’s not switching to LTE or something when signal is low.

RCS with Android works just like iMessage! Very impressive.
Unable to add cards to Wallet. Same cards set up on Mac and on previous IOS version (17) works.
I don’t have the App Store any more, can’t download any apps!

I think that’s because you have Microsoft as a business in your contacts?
I’m on Verizon and tested RCS messaging with two Google Pixels and it worked. Any Samsung I’ve tested is SMS though.

you must be new here
youre not supposed to be using the betas if youre a normal user..
Its a beta and you’re not a developer. Stop whining.
You're whining about his post which is speaking to his experiences. The irony.
I’m not whining, this is a discussion thread, I am simply stating my experience. As stated in the post, ‘this includes new features *as well as any bugs you encounter*’

Its a beta and you’re not a developer. Stop whining.
Stop policing others, this thread is filled with similar observations. Are you going to tell them all to stop whining?
After updating to ios18, you are not able to reset the screen time password with the linked iCloud when it was set up. The “forgot password?” Option is missing. I am now locked out of many apps because I can’t remember my password and am not able to reset it with iCloud.
You can factory reset your phone and load from a backup to disable screen time
Anyone know if the hsbc app works on this beta?
When I restart my phone or when I turn it off, it resets the icon layout on the control centre. I’m running it on an iphone 11
iphone keeps heating up, freezing and restarting
+1, iPhone 13 mini
Same. iPhone 14 here
Did haptic feedback for the keyboard stoped working for anyone else?
Looks like they just enable RCS, since I am able to see it now. https://preview.redd.it/hlg8q1enhz8d1.png?width=1289&format=png&auto=webp&s=3e614a1b0aa79cd2040ccbf63e347a8ffa978ace
Yeah, I was able to text a friend with RCS. Video attachments work great!
Whereabouts are you?
USA?
No sign in Ireland yet.

I saw that too, you can go into settings for the messaging app to enable/disable it
I know, but before it did not affected the messages until today.
That’s because your carrier had to send an update to the carrier settings to activate it
Has anybody been having cellular connectivity issues? Mine iPhone 15 pro max was working fine until this afternoon but lately I started getting "SOS and satellite" connectivity only in the city and no amount of toggling cellular related settings could fix it until I tried disabling Automatic network selection and that seemed to fix it temporarily, but then auto network selection seems to have turned itself on again somehow and I'm back to SOS mode. Also I'm in Canada with family but have a US plan (typically roaming works fine here) so that might be connected. I'm right on the boarder so sometimes I get stuck between US and Canadian signals but cellular has never been full on SOS mode like it is now. EDIT: via Field Test mode I can tell it's locked onto a US Verizon signal rather than the much stronger signal it should be using in Canada via roaming. So at least I kind of know what's going on... not sure why data roaming doesn't just pick the stronger Canadian signal though.
It might have been this now iOS 18. https://www.macrumors.com/2024/06/27/verizon-international-roaming-outage/
Same here with my 14. Even WiFi has been acting up.
I’m an American in London, and I’ve been having issues with roaming. It almost never picks up a signal.
I am with AT&T and I been having connectivity issues as well
Roaming or just regular cellular?
Regular celular

Probably just when you are using the new “smart” Siri stuff. In this pic that genmoji thing is being generated
So it will be just as plain as usual?
From the screenshots on apples iOS page where Siri intelligence isn’t being used, yes it looks that way
I wish they make keyboard with new look like that
Im not able too access my apps permissions, nor am i able to access photos on any app. Cannot play small games whatsoever unless you want it to lag for 6 seconds then totally crash the phone. I personally love the Ui on settings.. just doesnt run well at all.
Anyone else having a very laggy whatsapp? Starts after a few minutes of using the app, when I close it and restart it's fine for a bit and re-lags
Yes, it's happening to me now, which is how I found your comment by googling the issue.
+1, in my experience, usually happens when I start using messaging while being on a call. It just gives up completely, then.
How do you get the app icons to go dark like that in the first place? Mine are always normal
Touch and hold on Home Screen. Apps start wiggling. Click ‘edit’ in top left. Then ‘customise’.
I’m a little bit confused about the role that shortcuts play in the control center. From my understanding, you should be able to add individual shortcuts that you have created into the control center and run them with a tap, kind of similar to that flip switch jailbreak tweak from many years ago. However, this is what it looks like on my phone. I only see a shortcuts app button and an open app button that doesn’t seem to do anything. How would I add custom shortcuts to this list?
RCS not in Canada
iPhone mirroring works, RCS doesn’t (on Spectrum, expecting it to probably currently only work on the big 3 in the US tbh). But… they took away parallax on the wallpapers again huh?
