Has been an issue for me since iOS 18 enabled RCS - I don’t have RCS available when connected to WiFi.

I’ve tried:

• Multiple APs
• Removing and Reinstalling ESIM
• Enabling IPV6 on my router
• Disabling pi-hole and Firewalls

No matter what no RCS. Works fine when connected to cellular data.

Happened on both my 15 pro and new 16 pro. US Carrier is Verizon but also seeing similar behavior on other phones connected to ATT.

Anyone figured out a way to fix this? Is it just a beta (and also 18.0 GA) issue?

I read about a really annoying dimming issue, not sure if that’s affecting everyone though. Is it stable enough, how’s battery life?

Thanks :)

To enroll, go to Software Update and tap the prompt at the bottom.

Device region needs to be set to US, language to US English, Siri also needs to be set to US. I was able to join the wait list from Canada after changing all those settings.

So far I’ve noticed: Improved photos app UI (both search and select being available at all times). 3rd party app icons being tinted in dark mode.

I’ve seen some posts talking about iOS beta (which I’ve been running on my 15 Pro for a while), but what about watchOS? I’m using an Ultra 2 with it, is watchOS on that stable, not terrible on battery?

Still no Public Beta yet. Developers only.

This has been posted all over the place but if you haven’t seen it, this is a huge change.

To get it working, you need all your Apple TVs on iOS 18 DB1. Remove all your HomePods from your home if you have them. Then, you should see the option to turn off “Automatic Selection”. Turn it off and pick the Home Hub you want.

You can then readd your HomePods to your home. This process sounds painful but it’s actually pretty quick, HomePods remove, reset and readd to your Home fairly quickly. This whole process probably only took about 10 mins.

I‘m still sad the "scrub anywhere" option is gone. Is that back by any chance? Or a double tap to skip option perhaps? Free zoom inside a video?

Apparently coming in a dev beta soon, although properly launching in Fall.

Typically more dev & API focused but helpful if you’re encountering an issue and want to know if it’s known, or want to see if there are any known showstoppers preventing you from upgrading.

Always worth a look through for stuff that wasn’t mentioned in the keynote.

Don’t know why, but I can’t select it. Does anyone have any idea? Language related maybe?

I‘m assuming I’m not the only one who’s missing this feature? There should be a "no look" version for fast scrubbing in the player, it’s really annoying they removed this.

If so, what data have you been getting? I just tried it and it seems like the merchant was empty. I was trying to save presets per merchant in a dictionary and was getting a "no key was provided" error: image.

It should just have two options where I can pick the shortcuts. I get why the big widget wants a folder, but this is just annoying. It means I have to duplicate shortcuts with a different name if I want them in multiple widgets.
