Just noticed that when you press any of the buttons (power, volume or the action button) on an iPhone, the wallpaper shows a little indication of which one has been pressed as a black wedge/indent!
It feels like its jailbroken now, not a bad thing at all. From first impressions its been slightly buggy and some stutters here and there, but it seems pretty good so far
@@AZTenor94 Another issue im having is sometimes when I try to move multiple apps at the same time, all of the icons I arranged on the bottom of the screen jump onto the top of the screen and I have to reorganize them all again
I'm using an iPhone 15 Pro Max and it seems to drain quite a lot longer and i am having some overheating. Not sure if everyone is experiencing this but my iOS 17 was fine.
@@LoveDoveDarling Mine is also 100% battery health however battery life has still deteriorated quite massively. I uninstalled the Beta and will reinstall eventually when the battery life is improved.
Thank you for another awesome review! As an iPhone user, it both delights me and frustrates me to know that nearly all of these new iOS features were available so long ago on Android.
There is nothing in this update that I wasn’t doing on my phone 10 years ago with a jailbreak. I’m a iPhone user and I have to say these updates have nothing innovating. Good review btw.
Just hold out for the 16 if your 13 works well enough otherwise. Dynamic Island and the mute switch change were the only major differences in 14 and 15. 16 is supposedly going to be the next real refresh
@@MisterMachete I guess I exaggerated a little bit, what I mean is I don’t want performance and battery life to be affected, don’t want to deal with a lot of crashes as well
I’ve been running since day 1 and it was rough at first but has really smoothed out over the last couple of betas. There are some minor bugs that might drive you crazy but nothing that’s impacting my day to day life all that hard TLDR: download it. You’ll be fine.
It will be under Software Updates, Beta Updates. I'm also gonna switch now as my Xbox app keeps crashing since Developer Beta 1 even after updating the app as well.
I forgot to say if it's not there you have to sign up for and download it as well. If it's still not there sign out of your account and in again. That fixed it for me.
I just saw if you just updated to the Developer Beta 3 re-release released just before the Public Beta you won't be able to update to it as they share the same build number.
Always love to watch these. Thing is I feel most normals like me just don't care about this crap. We just want our device to work, and KISS, Now when it comes to Photo application if Apple can find a way to make it more KISS that is great.
its wild the customer base has wanted this for YEARS. Since other phone makers have it. They finally give it and act like its a huge deal and game changing. Apple literally doesn't create anymore. They copy. And tweak off others ideas. Apple is a shell of itself
Apple lets other companies test things out then they release a more refined version when they feel they are ready. They have always done this. However I agree it’s been waaaaayyyy too long for these little software features.
The new photos app is horrible. The tinted app colours look like some Chinese android phone. And the control center is worse, by far, with the several pages of stuff you need to scroll through. Horrible iOS 18.
I can’t vouch for the photos app but you quite literally don’t need to change the icon colors OR the control center. You swipe down and it can be the same as usual. Or you can keep swiping for more dedicated pages.
Worse battery Worse performance Worse cameras Worse performance Worse optimization and support Worse durability And this is not necessarily to be compared to an iPhone, any android flagship is also better
Moving all the apps at once was a surprise. Thanks!
how's the battery life after the update? is it worth it to update to iOS 18 now?
My biggest question is: do banking apps work on the public beta?
Mine work
They do
Mine do. YMMV.
Yes
Yep
iOS Looks perfect
I just downloaded the iOS 18 public beta this morning and I’m loving it so far! Thank you for this video btw! 👍🏾
Any problems?
@@tpc9002 no it’s been real smooth for me
Love the new customisation’

tiny moving parts. great taste! respect!
It feels like its jailbroken now, not a bad thing at all. From first impressions its been slightly buggy and some stutters here and there, but it seems pretty good so far
It’s public beta one, after all, so I’m not surprised. But if it already looks this good, I’m excited to see what else it can do in the final version!

rcs messaging for my carrier is not ready yet
Really helpful thanks
How has battery life been for everyone on public beta 1?
I'm using an iPhone 15 Pro Max and it seems to drain quite a lot longer and i am having some overheating. Not sure if everyone is experiencing this but my iOS 17 was fine.
@@notinterestedx Same. But battery isn’t an issue for me since it’s at 100% health and I’m not away from chargers for long enough to matter.
@@LoveDoveDarling Mine is also 100% battery health however battery life has still deteriorated quite massively. I uninstalled the Beta and will reinstall eventually when the battery life is improved.
What about a battery timing? And phone heating?
Downloading now! 👀
dont just download it but do use feedback app to report any issue and battery drain
oof, some of those icon colours look incredible.
do you have a link to that brown wallpaper
Has autocorrect been fixed ?
Still?.. can't move the photos to another album from the main album to clear it out 🤦♂️
where can I get these wallpapers for my iPhone?
Is it safe to update without backing up my phone I don't have icloud storage space
It’s better if you back it up using your PC
RCS finally.
Is public beta 1 and devloper beta 3 re same?
Да
Thank you for another awesome review!

Wonder this beta kill batteries?

Shame Apple Intelligence can't be installed on the iPhone 13. Yeah I know.. the processor is not fast enough. Worth yet another device upgrade?
Just hold out for the 16 if your 13 works well enough otherwise. Dynamic Island and the mute switch change were the only major differences in 14 and 15. 16 is supposedly going to be the next real refresh
That’s something based on personal need/want. So it’s only something you can decide for yourself.
Won’t let me update to public beta… anyone know how to do it?
Yeah I already update it. Next customization keyboard feature
“Peoples and Pets” Made me laugh, thanks.
What about call recording?
What about it dodo
Anybody else have "Ongoing Device Setup" in the battery settings still there that won't go away?
I don’t have the text effect option 🤔
Banking works with the Beta In Australia
How buggy is it?
I want to know too, I’m bored of iOS 17 but I don’t wanna upgrade yet if it’s gonna brick my phone
@@SaifSKHbugs does not necessarily brick your phone dude 😂
@@SaifSKHNot buggy at all. Works really well

if i have beta still i can update ios 18 on release date??
you can always go back in settings and change the update channel you are in
@@abreyen thanks bro ❤️
@@abreyen what will happen if i go back to channel settings?
Take a backup on a computer before you do anything. If you need to restore you can. You can restore old -> new version, but not new -> old
Yes. I use to download the betas and stay on it until the official one would automatically install on release date
Can you share your wallpaper link?
My SE looks 2024!
Wallpaper ?
How do I go from developer to public?
It will be under Software Updates, Beta Updates. I'm also gonna switch now as my Xbox app keeps crashing since Developer Beta 1 even after updating the app as well.

@@AGPAirgunsTargetsTriggers is there a difference between dev beta 3 re release and public beta?
Just change it on software update section , and choose beta public 👍🏻
I much prefer the icon theming on a Pixel.
What the wallpapers brother
Is there the new Siri UI? Nobody has talked about it yet.
Will probably come in a beta when iPhone 16 comes out
No
Coming in later betas
It will come in iOS 18 Beta 4 or above, for some new parts of it.
They said that’s not coming until later this fall

Where do I get that wallpaper on your phone in the vid??
TMP ❤
I’ve been on a developer beta so I’ve actually seen all this already. I’ve got my phone customized exactly the way I want it.
Glad that it’s not just me with all those security issues found 😂
Not much interest me in this beta
Ok
The bot comments here lol

its look like android
Samsung is light years ahead of Apple
Can’t place icons “wherever you want” it’s still a grid
Dont like it , feels like android 🤢
👍
Oh look iPhone finally became an Android
Exactly 😂😂😂
Iam ex android user for the first time used iphone be so happy🎉
Its not downgrade to beta 1 💀💀

first
iPhones are boring. Let me know when Apple comes out with a foldable phone.
🥛🥛
foldable phone is meh
Have fun with that crease
??? So because it folds you would get an iPhone?
Worse battery
Worse performance
Worse cameras
Worse performance
Worse optimization and support
Worse durability
And this is not necessarily to be compared to an iPhone, any android flagship is also better
