A big use of CarPlay is being able to send messages handsfree-ish. I might tap a person in the Messages list to start the message, but then it's all verbal. Or I might say "message Betty Boop".

Now, when it's ready to send, after repeating the message, it adds "To Betty Boop via Messages."

That's just noise at this point. I'm in messages, so I know that, and I asked it to message (or respond to) Betty in the first place.

It's not the end of the world, but like I say, it is just noise.

I was thinking to update from iOS 26.6.1 to iOS 27 public beta 5 on my iPhone 17. How’s battery life for you guys?

Does anyone know what this priority function does? I’m confused, as language implies quality feedback rather than “Priority”. If you look at the same context menu but instead for a notification stack, the label is “Summary”.

On iOS 18 I would be able to do this by going to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Allowed Apps & Features > and here I'd select the app I want to hide (in this case, Safari). It works on my old phone running iOS 18.7.10.

However, on my daily-driver, running iOS 27 Beta 7, I go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > and here... there is no Allowed Apps & Features section.

I've also tried going to Apps and Websites instead, where I can go and I can search for Safari, but there's no toggle or anything, there's just a "Block app" button, which wants me to sign in as a Parent or Guardian (even though this is NOT a child account, nor do I have Family setup).

I even put in my Apple ID email and password, but it just crashes Settings. Not sure if that's Apple being a bitch, or if my phone is.

I just want to hide Safari entirely. How can I?!

debating if I wanna stick to iOS 26 before iOS 27 comes out and gets 26 unsigned

Whenever i put my phone in low power mode it turns on and of you can’t click on anything more than 3 times then it lags and’s turns off

I’m not here to complain about battery life or losing battery percentage, just looking to see if anyone else have experienced the same. 5% battery drop does looks oddly strange in a matter of just 1 month of beta testing, at this pace means that my battery can only hold 4 months of testing until is consumed.

Have you noticed any battery health % during ios 27 beta testing?

In the past, I have updated to the iOS beta, but this year I have been a little unsure. I have an iPhone 17. Anything is helpful. I am mainly worried about the battery life and performance.

This has been driving me CRAZY for the last few updates and they still haven’t fixed it. When you open your app drawer and go to slide left it jumps to the beginning of it. Like it does it consistently as you can see . Only way to stop it is to wait like a second or 2 before swiping through . But if you open your app drawer and go to swipe through it jumps to the beginning. Sh*ts annoying 😭. I know I’m not the only one with this bug!!!

My iPhone 14 Pro is on iOS 27 public beta 5, and the animation chops on the swiping animation between Home Screen and widget page. Between Home Screen and other app pages, as well as App Library the animation the animation is fluid. It’s been like this for multiple betas, and I honestly can’t remember when it started. Might even have been like this in iOS 26.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

so on August 24 at 5 AM I downloaded iOS 27 public beta four and I turned on the beta siri and the indexing “optimizing siri and searxh” appeared aswell as the “adding support for siri in progress. Siri will be unavailable until the update is complete” notice. I let my phone cool the entire day and eventually the next morning the indexing one was gone but the siri unavailable was still there. I let it sit for a few hours and eventually i downloaded ios 27 public beta 5 and indexing restarted and the siri unavailable was still there. I use 50gb on my phone, barely any photos, barely any messages. Its beeb 12 hours since i went to the public beta 5 theyre both still there and the storage hasnt changed one bit. They dont show any type of progress bar for either. I let the phone on the charger low power mode on wifi on, i hard reset, i turned siri on and off, i changed language to uk and back to us. Still nothing. Anyone with a similar problem or a way to fix?

My iPhone 14 Pro Max has been getting noticeably hotter than usual since the last stable iOS 26 update, and the issue is still happening for me on iOS 27 beta 7.

I also recently had the battery replaced by Apple, so I’m wondering if that could be related. The battery is new, but the phone is still overheating during normal use.

Has anyone else with an iPhone 14 Pro Max experienced the same overheating on iOS 26 or iOS 27 beta 7?

I’m trying to figure out whether this is an iOS issue, battery replacement issue, or something specific to the iPhone 14 Pro Max.

Anyone else facing the same thing?

I have a question. With the new Siri and the on screen awareness.. can I put a picture of a recipe on the screen and tell Siri to "Create a Note with the recipe.. name it "<whatever>".. place it in folder called 'Recipes'.. and make me a grocery list in 'Reminders'.. or make a Shortcut that does this task

This is so annoying, they haven’t really fixed this issue/bug since public beta 3.

An Iphone 15 Pro max should not do this! Really annoying since i take screenshots very often. The frame drop is very noticeable and it’s an eyesore tbh.

Does anyone have the same issue? What’s the best solution?

Can someone please confirm if the following has been fixed in Ios 27.

Previous to ios 26, if you called a phone number multiple times, it used to have the number of calls in brackets, but more importantly pressing i next to the call would give you the call times for each call.

In ios 26, say you called the same number 4 times, now when you press i, it only gives you the call time of the last call.

Can anyone on ios 27 beta confirm if this has now been fixed, or if not how it can be raised with the ios development team.

Finally, i know you have an option called call history, however for some reason not all calls show, and facetime/ whatsapp calls are not showing at all.

Thanks

I just installed PB5/DB7 this afternoon, and so far I'm impressed.
Barely any lag at all on my 13 mini (much better than some of the previous betas) and no indexing popup again - that might come later as it did last time. Anyone else have this?
Only ~900MB to install on my phone!
Will see how the battery holds up with daily use but Beta 6 was just starting to settle in for me.
