hi everyone Aaron here for ZolloTech and I've been using iOS 13 beta 2 for the
past week or so on my iPhone XS Max primarily now I do have it on other
devices such as the 6s plus here and my iPhone se but since I've primarily used
it here and then did a YouTube community poll where over 12,000 of you voted I
think that's a pretty good feedback amount to tell you how it is overall now
this is a developer beta and it's not expected to be bug free this early on in
fact Apple has said there's over 100 bugs in it currently still or 100 known
issues and I've certainly experienced that and before we continue I did want
to mention the iPad I planned on maybe doing a separate video for that because
I've had similar and different issues as well so let me know if you want a
separate video for iPad follow-ups and videos in the comments below so the
first thing is I have had a lot of crashes on this now not anything really
bad in fact I can make it crash just by changing the wallpaper under wallpaper
if we go in here now maybe I'll go to one of the stills and set this as both
and well it worked other times it completely crashes let me
go back to the other wallpaper and you'll see there's a little bit of a
freeze there as well so there are little bugs here and there all over the place
not as many as beta 1 I would say but there's still crashes I would say
battery life is better but honestly at this point it's not that relevant and
actually Apple says that and I will talk about battery but Apple says that wait
for public beta 1 because they said they'll fix a lot of bugs it was
actually in the notes and I missed it during the iOS update video but in the
notes they said wait for public beta 1 if you want to put it on your regular
daily device so changing the wallpaper respring x' this sometimes voice-to-text
seems to crash this a lot now not as much as beta 1 but if I go in and maybe
do a voice to text in messages it will just crash messages if I do it in some
other apps maybe Twitter sometimes it works sometimes it crashes Twitter so
there's issues like that I've found with apps like money whiz - for example it
would crash wouldn't even open the app and quite a
few of you have told me you have apps that keep crashing as well so there's
definitely issues same with Twitter locking up and crashing and also many
people are having bugs with Apple music in fact they weren't even able to use it
so if they subscribe to Apple music sometimes it would pop up asking for a
pin that gets sent via text and it was kind of weird we haven't seen that
before just keeps popping in and in and in and they couldn't use Apple music so
people were definitely having issues and messaging me all week long how do I go
back to iOS 12 that said for a beta 2 of a new generation of iOS it's pretty good
the other thing people were unable to do was install apps from Apple if they
deleted it so maybe you delete the stock mail or music app they couldn't
reinstall it from the App Store just wouldn't work so people were definitely
having issues and having to reboot now this time around I have not had to
reboot like I did with beta 1 but let's go into battery and I'll show you how it
is now most of the time I use this device I did use a different device for
most of the day today I'm testing some other things but you'll see my battery
is not particularly great it's 5 hours here but the next day it was three and
three and a half hours with about 30 to 40% left so it's okay some days other
days it's not I've stopped most background activity with the exception
of spark which I'll stop some of that later on
but it seems to be ok but but not great and I don't expect it to be great in an
early beta so let's talk about what you had issues with and also I want to talk
about performance before we talk about that so performance even on the older
devices is quite good I'm pretty impressed with performance overall
you'll see settings opened up quickly their music is nice and fast now let's
go into weather and these are have not been open before so you'll see apps are
loading nice and fast and Apple has said that this update should allow apps to
load twice as fast in general so that's even on these older phones things like
scrolling and and for the most part seem to be ok but there are freezes and
stutters all throughout the OS and sometimes it takes a couple days for it
to actually manifest so it's okay but expected for an early
beta now also people were saying they had issues with carplay but let's take a
look at the youtube community poll because over 12,000 of you voted and I
really appreciate that so you'll see 12 K votes and only 22% of you said it was
great and in fact I hear it's okay on some devices and other times it's not
the device is kind of random 3% saying terrible 7% saying lots of bugs 8%
saying just okay I probably should just get rid of one of these and then 61% of
you are using iOS 12 or Android so 256 of you commented and I've read every one
of these and you'll see there's a little stuttering in YouTube and that's kind of
to be expected I think YouTube needs to optimize the app as well but if I go
down through here I've read all of these and most of them are saying there's
little bugs here and there and crashes so that's to be expected but I'll read
about ten of these because there's just so many they don't want to read all of
them it would take me all day to read through every one of these comments so
here are two people that are saying that it's good iPhone 8 works pretty good no
complaint here and pretty smooth on my XS Max
a lot better than beta 1 and actually three people saying it's great but if we
go up here you'll see it's a it's okay at the moment definitely an improvement
from beta but still very laggy and then below that it bricked my iPhone 7 plus
completely but in the end I got an iPhone XR so you'll see it goes back
and forth again iOS 13 is amazing on my iPhone 6s I'm so happy I finally
installed it so it's really hit or miss so if you're willing to take the risk
and realize it's a beta it's fine but I'd wait to the public beta using on my
iPhone XS Max battery life is okay it could be better but it's doable lots of
bugs but I'm okay with that ready for beta 3 and you really need to be ok with
it with early betas because this is is but is buggy
probably not as buggy as say iOS 11 when that was how iPhone 7 performance is
pretty comparable to twelve point three point one only ever noticed some weird
glitches with the home screen when swiping between app pages and maybe a
slight hit to battery life but otherwise positive experience thus
far so pretty good I've had a few small bugs my phone my phone did crash once
but overall it's been a pretty good for performance wise battery on the other
hand is okay but it's not great but I know it will improve over time
iPhone XS so many bugs here on the iPhone se the new keyboards don't appear
every time I had three restarts to force restarts and seven application crashes I
have selected text size to be the smallest but still at many places it
looks bigger phone heats up too much battery life was good here but when the
phone was plugged in sometimes it discharges and heats up way too much
that I have to power it off so like I said lots of bugs here and there let's
go through a couple more I installed iOS 13 beta 2 in my iPhone 8 and I had a lot
of app crashes and some lags for example and Spotify another point to mention is
that I had issues updating apps talking about battery life I did not
have the greatest experience because it drowned or drained faster than an iOS 12
here's the Apple music bug I was referring to so this one says there's an
apple music bug where it's sent verification number and never came in
and you delete Apple music and only you reinstall it this is the first beta I've
ever installed or tried on my daily device the battery life has been better
compared to the first beta of iOS 13 was for me it's been good I can't speak on
the others of course only problem is that there's a lot of bugs and sometimes
my phone just crashes but overall enjoying the experience compared to one
this beta first launched when only you and a select few others had it it's a
little buggy but understandable I love it so far wish they would add a feature
to clear all apps at once you don't normally need to clear all apps at once
unless you're having a problem in fact Apple says not to clear all the apps at
once I don't generally close my apps unless it's something like navigation
that's going to continually run in the background but that is it for this
particular beta I'm really looking forward to beta 3 which will hopefully
have the public beta as well which means most likely it's going to be July 1st
however in the notes they did say by the end of this month so it's hard to say
which one's accurate originally Apple said
I for the public beta but the notes at the end of June so we'll see maybe it'll
be Monday maybe it will be July first either way I'll let you know of course
on Twitter if you haven't followed me there I always update there and then of
course on YouTube as well let me know if you want to see that I pad OS video in a
second video and when I do the updates as well I'd love to hear what you have
to say about that and if you haven't subscribed already please subscribe and
like if you enjoyed the video oh and hit that subscribe notification
bell if you'd like to see more of these right when they come out if you'd like
to get your hands on the wallpaper of course I'll link it in the description
as I always do as always thanks for watching this is Aaron I'll see you next
time
