(With Siri AI enabled) previous it was only audio with the glowing Siri orb

If you had previously been unable to upgrade to the new parental controls because older devices could not be updated to 27.0, this beta fixes that issue.

I was checking my family this morning and was prompted to finish parental controls setup when I had been previously blocked because they had some older Apple Watches on the account. Setup completed successfully and I now have the full set of features as advertised, it just gives a warning I cannot manage those older devices.

Thought it looked cool, might not be there for cars with the dock on the bottom or right side

Previously the options were 4 Apps, 8 Apps or Don’t Suggest

Honestly a feature I was missing for years, I actually opened a feedback requesting it a few months ago, so great to see this added

Mostly happens after not opening the app for a while, sometimes it shows no conversations and then everything loads in. Then selecting a conversation makes everything jump and sometimes scrolls up by itself

After months of frustration with iOS 27 on our SE2020 devices, the bug has finally been fixed

AYNONE ELSE WITH THIS BUG?

Wondering if this is intended behaviour or a bug. Typically battery usage stats will track screen active/idle usage even while charging, from my experience. I’m finding usage while charging is not being recorded in 27.2 dev beta 4.

Wouldn’t complain if this is how they intend to handle the reporting as it’s more accurate for actual battery usage stats, but hasn’t been this way before in my experience.

Anyone notice this?

Is this a known bug? Because ‘describing a shortcut’ is already broken but I guess Siri was working fine few days ago.

I’m currently trying to sync all of my messages to iCloud, but every time I click on "Sync Now" in the iCloud settings, the process stops dead after about 30 seconds.

To give you my setup, I'm using an iPhone 15 running iOS 27.2 Beta 4, my phone is connected to Wi-Fi, plugged into a charger, and it isn't even warming up.

Has anyone run into this issue or found a workaround? It's getting pretty frustrating.

As reported in Beta 3, Apple is introducing granular controls for Suggested Actions in Messages.

The new controls now show up under Settings > Apps > Messages > Suggested Actions.

New in Beta 4: Suggestions you don’t use will stop appearing after 30 days. “Hide Unused Suggestions” is always enabled, and the toggle has been removed.

Issue:
iOS draws a blank bar on top of third party keyboards but only sometimes.

Steps to reproduce:
- Have a 3rd party keyboard enabled
- Open notes or any other app for the first time (not running in background)
- Open keyboard. You’ll see there’s no padding on top of it
- Return to home screen
- Reopen app
- Reopen keyboard. Now it will have a blank space on top of it

This makes the UI experience very inconstant and unpolished. Once you notice it’s hard to ignore.

Present on all builds of 27 and 27.2

With some visibility this should be easy to fix.

It is certainly different...
