• Since iOS 11.4 still can’t initiate ‘album’ playback via Siri on the watch with music that is locally stored on phone
• When iCloud Keychain and text replacements are enabled, text replacement won’t be offered anymore when trying to login. The specific text replacement is overwritten with “Password”
• iMessage app sort order resets after a period of time from custom order to default order
• In Messages: using 3D Touch to Peak and Pop, or when rotating the screen orientation turns the iMessage app strip black (iPhone 7 only)
• Sometimes, if you have no SIM inserted, you will see an old time to appear at the top of the screen
• Opening app switcher in landscape mode will sometimes show old stuff that you did with the app before
• On the home screen, scrolling to the second page, swiping up then holding the screen will cause the second page to disappear
• Lockscreen blocking bug: Get to the passcode request page, then swipe up and down while not releasing the screen - this will cause the first line (1, 2, 3) to be unresponsive.

iOS 12.1.4 vs. 12.2 Beta 5
iPhone 8, iPhone 7, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6, iPhone 5s.
🗣We are getting very close to the final version. This could be the last beta version we will see, maybe a Beta 6 next Monday. But pretty sure the final release will be online on March 25th same time as the Apple services event. So I am expected it to be performing close to what we will see from the final version. So without wasting much more time lets get down to business and test Beta 5.

iPhone 8, iPhone 7, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6, iPhone 5s.
🗣Today Apple release iOS 12.2 Beta 6 to developers and also the Public Beta 6 for those on the Public Beta program. This was expected as we are now just 7 days away from the March event, and the final release of iOS 12.2 which we will see on March 25th. This is most likely the last Beta of iOS 12.2, unless Apple sneaks in a Beta 7 Thursday or Friday this week. IF it is the last Beta we should expect Beta 6 to be very smooth and polished. So can not wait to test it. Lets get on with just that.
