Are you a fan of the change to the Photos app?
This really sucks for us people living in the EU. not having AI yet 😤. I know there is a way to get it but it’s too much hassle
Dam i want a new phone just for AI😭 but ill wait to trade my 14 for the 17 i think its the better way to go
The old version of Photo app about pop up feature is incredibly stupid. Nice to see apple remove it, but still miss the OLD design of the app.
Even the most powerful AI would fail trying to guess that was a tree 😅
Not updating
Thanks for the heads up. I just deleted the beta 3 update. I will keep 2 and skip to 4 after
Is it just me or is Apple Intelligence completely useless, I mean everything iv done it’s referred me to Chat cpt even the “ writing tools” have sent me to gpt. And it can even draw. Iv lost my voice for over 4 years now so can’t even speak to use it in that sense. So I may as well just do all the stuff my self ie schedules, appointments etc
The new photos behavior is great, I hated how they made it behave in ios 18, who wants to see their images in a tiny size?
I update the phone every time it updates. To be honest it does improve a little bit but battery keeps getting worse, battery last about half a day. Since I have AI since I use the features.
How do i get that wallpaper?
I am frustrated that I am still on the wait list to receive Playground and Image Wand
Thanks!
Im pretty sure my car supports CarPlay 2 it is just that I don’t have it it’s a 2024 Range Rover evoque, and Land Rover said they would do CarPlay 2. I didn’t even. I didn’t even know they released CarPlay 2.
I’m so glad they fixed photos app. It was so annoying that to scrub through a video you’d have to pop back out from full screen. I’m willing to get a bit of covering but more functionality. Now you can tap and make it disappear
Apple intelligence not showing in china variant iphones even after the region change?
Should we in the EU even care about these betas when we don’t have Apple Intelligence? I wish you would talk about what’s new for us that don’t have Apple Intelligence
4:58 I prefer the old UI
No I like having the photos go full screen when opening them. The other way was a paint on the butt.
Hope they fix the issues on the booth. But I love and want the image to open full screen.
I still can’t use playground, genmoji on public beta 2 just says registered
To get your stickers to return, do a factory reset and restore via icloud, and they will come back. I had to do that
RCS has not been working with iOS 18.2 Betas
I’m loving iOS 18.2 Beta 3
Review Ripple is stealing your videos and doing a voice over.
a 4-row emoji keyboard on such a large phone has really made me angry actually.
Is it still good or necessary to update if not using a 15pro or newer and not using airpods ??
❤️🙏🏻👍🏻
I just bought a iPhone 16 128 GB
The battery life is terrible
My phone sips through battery overnight and even when idle
Is there any fix to this?
thanks for the video just to let you know iOS 18.2.3 for iPad is just a screwed up. The voiceover function will not announce the numbers can’t even put my passcode in the rest of the letters sometimes are a hit or miss. I don’t know what happened to the download, but the voiceover keypad is just nonfunctional. Kind of hard report stuff when you can’t even put your Apple ID in because it has numbers in it and some of the letters don’t function as well. Maybe they’ll fix it next round.
To be honest, I really don’t understand why they keep making so many changes. It actually works good how things are now. When you keep making changes or keep fixing something, that’s not broken
Hi Brandon, I live in the Netherlands and the new mail is still not here. No prio…and the other filter. Is this also based on AI?
Iphone 13 pro beta 3
no dark screen bug
all stickers working fine
I have the new iPad mini with the iOS 18, and I cannot keep my keyboard large any suggestions? I’ve tried to use my fingers to pinch it out, but it just stays as a mini keyboard most of the time.
Thanks for the helpful information. Have you had a problem with your cleanup tool? I click on it and it just gets stuck with the progress bar saying "Downloading Clean Up" but never gets past that. It was working fine until after IOS 18.2 Beta 3 was installed. Hopefully they get this fixed.
I had that sticker issue happen last beta and they came back after a restart. I also had this hair with music in the past. I also had passwords i deleted come back with the new password app so I’m sure they will come back
The problem with the lock screen I have had on iOS 18, beta 2. I found a few going into settings and edit or change your wallpaper for your focus mode. It will automatically fix them.
@brandone butch does the phone feel smoother with no lags when you scroll through the apps? 18.1 has a minor lag when i go from the main page to the left side where the widdgets are it looks a bit choppy. i'm on 18.1 i hope they fix it when i get the 18.3 final release.
Hi Brandon! I have an issue with my iphone 16 pro max. There is screen tearing in many app when i scroll down. Is it a software bug or hardver? Do you have a tipp what to do?
Does anyone know how to get the colorful keyboard
Whatever new upatde for AI. I just wanna be a good baterai life screen on time and not heat if using social media 😊
I never get the add to playground prompt
im ready for the public reliece
I know this might not be relatable to this video but anyone have issues with their iPads on the current iOS? I have 18.1 and my iPad has been buggy as hell lol.
Apple intelligence is most definitely gonna shit all over Samsungs garbage AI crap. Another W for Apple
ai in canada on 18.2 ?
my lock screen is is how it is supposed to be, so i think its a bug just for some of iphones?
Where the heck is the “waitlist”
WHATS UP GUYS!!!!! Next…
Even with the IOS 18.1 update Apple Note is still broken. I see this is a known issue, what is Apple waiting for ?
All notes that are a little too long start to slow down a lot when typing. Using Apple Note heats up the phone and uses up the battery quickly. I can't work properly any more and I urgently need to fix this problem. What is Apple doing ?
I still don’t have this beta available on my phone
