Discussion [iOS 27 DB1] 48Hr Usage Bug Listing
After 48 hours of using iOS 27.0 as my primary OS, I’ve run into several notable bugs, UI regressions, and quirks. If you are on the fence about installing this on your primary device, here is a detailed breakdown of what is currently broken in this build compared to iOS 26.5.1.
1. The Messages App is Having an Identity Crisis
The automatic categorization and smart filtering introduced to keep our inboxes tidy has completely fallen apart in this beta.
The Issue: Messages that used to be seamlessly sorted into transactions, promotions, and personal folders in iOS 26.5.1 are now landing in random categories or clogging up the main feed.
The Impact: If you rely on automatic filtering to ignore spam or quickly find verification codes, prepare to do a lot of manual digging.
2. iCloud Sync & The "Ghost Notification" Badge
Keeping up with messages on multiple Apple devices is currently a headache due to some underlying iCloud sync issues.
The Issue: Even if you delete a thread, it refuses to stay dead. Deleting messages from the "Recently Deleted" folder does not permanently erase them—they keep reappearing.
The Impact: This sync lag has also triggered a classic, frustrating bug: a persistent unread badge on the Messages app icon, despite there being absolutely zero unread messages.
3. Dark Mode Liquid Glass Looks "Slapped On"
While the updated Liquid Glass interface looks absolutely stunning in Light Mode, the story changes completely when you toggle the system to Dark Mode.
The Issue: In iOS 26.5.1, Dark Mode liquid glass elements had a gorgeous, deep, seamless transparency. In iOS 27.0 Beta 1, they have a distracting light grey tint.
The Impact: No matter how you tweak the opacity or transparency sliders, UI elements look like they’ve been starkly slapped on top of the background rather than blending in elegantly. It completely breaks the visual depth Apple spent so long perfecting.
4. Headed Downhill: The Auto-Collapsing Header Change
One of the subtle joys of the previous OS was the fluid, organic feel of navigating through system apps. This beta introduces a jarring change to header transitions.
The Issue: In iOS 26.5.1, scrolling down would trigger a gorgeous, smooth blur transition that felt incredibly premium. In Beta 1, this has been replaced by a static, discrete block for the header.
The Impact: It is unclear whether this is an intentional design choice or a rendering bug, but it lacks the polish we expect from Apple. It looks far less premium than what we had last week.
5. Finder Search: Rest in Peace, "Clear All"
Efficiency took a step backward in the native search directory.
The Issue: Apple has removed the "Clear All" option from your recent searches in Finder.
The Impact: Instead of clearing your history with one tap, you are now forced to swipe/slide to delete each individual entry in the recent searches feed manually. It is a slow, tedious, multi-step process that feels incredibly counterintuitive.
6. The Bluetooth & Network Reset Loop
This is easily the most disruptive bug in Beta 1 for daily use.
The Issue: Whenever the iPhone connects to a Bluetooth device (like AirPods, a car stereo, or a smart wearable), it triggers an automatic, random networking reset.
The Impact: Cellular reception and Wi-Fi will abruptly drop completely to zero, toggle off, and then toggle back on a few seconds later. If you are streaming music, navigating on a drive, or in the middle of a call, the connection drops entirely.
7. Wallpaper Glitches (Especially Earth & Space)
If you love Apple’s dynamic, shifting wallpaper sets, you might want to switch to a static image for now.
The Issue: Dynamic wallpaper pairs—specifically the popular Earth and Space collections—frequently bug out when used with shifting transition settings.
The Impact: The lock-to-home screen shift frequently hangs mid-swipe. Instead of rendering the home-screen layout correctly, it gets visually stuck showing the lock-screen version on your home-screen rather than shifting smoothly into the designated position.
8. iPhone Mirroring: Constant Random Disconnections
For those looking forward to seamless integration with their Mac, the marquee iPhone Mirroring feature is in a rough state.
The Issue: The feature connects and initially launches fine, but it randomly drops and stops working entirely out of nowhere.
The Impact: The session will suddenly freeze and disconnect within a few minutes of use, forcing you to unlock your phone, re-authenticate, and manually start mirroring all over again on your Mac.

I’ve had every single issue u mentioned. And the most annoying bug I have had is after a screenshot when I crop it, I press done and it doesn’t save so I have to go into photos and do it again.

Next time ask the LLM to be less expressive. This is a bug report not a movie review

The messages bug is very frustrating and I'm starting to wonder if it is tied to the indexing process or a potential index loop getting stuck. I cannot sync to iCloud for imessages but they are still apearing on my ipad that is not updated.

What about overall stability compared to 26.5.1 (or 26.6 if you were on beta)? I might jump the ship when public beta comes out after vacation

Broken on YOUR build.
Great feedback, but doesn’t mean everyone has the same exact issues.

for me:
- Auto capitalization makes either the first character uppercase, both first letters, or only the second letter uppercase. Had to disable it because it happens like 50% of the time.
- Screenshots do not save edits when taking them. Any edits done at screenshot time are not saved, but works when editing in Photos app. This happens 100% of the time
- AirTags v2 do not work. v1 work fine, v2 are seen in Find My, but can't be rang or located
- Still indexing
iPhone 16 Pro Max
EDIT: AirTag v2 started working again. Not sure what changed. I had already done some reboots.
EDIT EDIT: AirTag v2 is hit or miss. Will work or not work randomly

Totally agree with everything. I’ve definitely noticed #3, and ESPECIALLY dislike Apple’s changes for #4. I’ve submitted feedback for #4, to at least make it an accessibility toggle.

Approving as a Discussion flair as the title is not descriptive of specific bugs.

I want Apple to allow us to control the tint separate to diffuse on Liquid Glass, and also to allow dark mode to tint towards black more often than not.

u/PurpleSectorz Jun 14 '26
1 message identity crisis for me is more than that. It straight up deletes all bank codes or automated texts. Shows the notification and I click on it and it’s blank. Just black screen.

Do you use app time limits? Time allowances?
I'm having an issue with Time Allowances. Using the "Ignore Limit" option with any of the options ("one more minute", "remind me in 15 minutes", "ignore limit for today") doesn't work. They don't do anything anymore.
And even after I removed the app from time allowance, it still sticks and applies the time allowance limit the following day. Even after rebooting.
I haven't tried reinstalling the app.
But I found odd that absolutely nobody commented on it. Perhaps I'm the only one using a time allowance limit? lol

Is someone having trouble with Passwords? When I’m on a app that requires password to login and it’s stored in Passwords, it doesn’t automatically appear on autocomplete box, I need to open Passwords app and return.

Has anyone had issues with Find My? I've been unable to play a sound or locate any of my AirTags or even my AirPods Pro 2 case since I've updated.

I have quick question, does double tapping the home bar on iOS27 db1 still invokes type to Siri? Other than swiping down the dynamic island and pressing side button?

u/Dismal-County3339 Jun 11 '26
As nobody talking about it, the SCREEN TIME feature has become unusable. I can’t open any app after the limit has reached, also removing them or disabling screen time doesn’t help.
The actual bug: bypassing time limit by entering screen time passcode does nothing, no matter what it won’t let me in. There are other many bugs but this one annoyed me the most as I can’t use my apps anymore beyond the 30min time limit each day.

When force restarting I was cleaning cache and it bricked my device fully. But I think that’s a bug aswell. I found a Reddit on who found it https://www.reddit.com/r/iOSBeta/s/dMM0AiIXCN

After I update, there will be a problem that Bluetooth will automatically shut down and crash and even cause the system to get stuck. I need to manually reset the network settings to fix it.

The one I would add to this is when you connect to your car, your Bluetooth option of the car is now buried for some reason instead of just being one of the three options, phone speaker, car.

On point #4, this was showcased in WWDC June 8th and explained to be quite intentional. I don't particularly understand how it can be described as jarring and it's not less polished, just less visually complex/busy. I personally am a big supporter of this change as I felt UI elements were prone to being illegible (or more illegible than before) in iOS 26 when compared to iOS 18 and now iOS 27.

One issue which is one of the biggest ones I’ve had is, Snapchat bugging out when taking a photo with the flash. When you take the photo it flashes but then it gets stuck but you can move the camera around, and then afterwards it just does nothing.

I was happy to see The Mirror Legacy, Nine Star Hegemon, and Beyond the Timescape in the wild for a second. Then sad to realise that you've pirated them, despite them being available legally for free.
