hi everyone Aaron here for Zollotech and ios 13.6.1
and ios 14 beta 4 have been out for at least a few days or over a week
depending on which one you're running and so i want to talk about the overall
experience any bugs that i'm having and that you're having based
off the youtube community poll as well as when to expect ios 14 beta 5
and also whether or not you should update to ios 13.6.1 if you haven't
already so if you want to jump to any part of
this particular video just to see what's most important to you
check out the time codes below or you can see it in the little scrubber bar in
the video and so the first thing before i talk
about the update is if you're not familiar with this already there was
some huge news for the gaming world at least and that has
to do with fortnite fortnite was removed from the ios app store as well as the
google play store on android and that's due to them violating the
payment setup of both of those app stores they pushed an update to try to
do their own payment system and that's against the actual policies
of both stores and i think that was a move to try and get some change pushed
through as far as the app stores go but we'll
see what happens with that in the future but let me know if you play that game in
the comments below now as far as ios 13.6.1 i'm running it
on my iphone 10s max that i have here i haven't shown this in a video in a
while so i thought it bring it out and then also the iphone 11 as well as
the ipad air 2. so i have it on all of these devices and
so i want to talk about how it's been and so the first thing is it's been
pretty solid now it's not the main version of ios that i use
but performance wise it's been good and my family is running it so i have some
reference there so performance has been good most people
are saying this is the best version of ios 13 and it really should be at this
point it should be the apple has fixed everything and so
you'll see things seem fast there was a little bit of a glitch there
and on the iphone 11 well the iphone 11 we're going to have the same experience
so basically everything that you have in
the iphone 10s max and the iphone 11 should basically
be the same so i wouldn't really expect any difference as far as performance
there but you'll see performance seems to be good
scrolling through things is nice and fast and just in general
most people are saying it's really good as far as that goes
some are actually saying that face id is a little bit faster
so if i have a face id phone and i lift it up and swipe up at the same time
you'll see it unlocks nice and fast i didn't notice any specific
difference but quite a few people are saying that also people are saying that
it gets less hot than it did before only one person i think said that it was
getting warm still but they're saying most of the
time the phone doesn't heat up doing tasks that are whether it's gaming
although expect it to heat up some if you're doing
intensive gaming maybe call of duty or one of those but in general it seems to
be performing really well and being less hot
in general now some people are saying that there is an issue
with the share sheet showing up and i've seen this on a few different posts
as well as people that have shared this with me so that if maybe you're going to
a website well this is a support website about
security updates maybe we'll share here it would show up blank when you go to
share it just wouldn't show up at all and so for me it's working but there are
a few people where it just sort of disappears and we're not sure why
also instagram notifications apparently aren't showing up for some
so if you're looking for some notifications apparently they're
not showing up properly for some people so just keep that in mind maybe you need
to look for an update for instagram or they need to push an update but most
people are saying it's good so hopefully it's just something that
the app needs to be updated with now on ipad
the same thing is true even on such an old device like the ipad air 2 this is
one of the oldest supported ipads performance seems good and you'll see i
have some different games on there and maybe if we go into settings and
scroll performance seems decent now it's not as good as when the ipad first came
out for some reason apple when they make
changes it just seems to slow it down sometimes but they've sped that back up
in general compared to ios 12 for example so performance should
be better than what it was before with ios 13.5.1
or 13.6 at least according to most people but
the ipad seems to be working okay there now as far as battery on ios 13.6.1
well this is where it gets interesting i took all of the different comments that
you had in the youtube community poll which i'll
go over some of them later but i took all of that information as
well as a few responses on twitter and quite a few of you said that battery is
much better there are a few that say it's not but
one person said i used to get six hours of screen on time for almost 75 percent
battery consumption but today i got six and hours and 25 minutes of screen on
time for just over 50 percent battery consumption
huge improvement another person said on their iphone 11
with the ios 13.6.1 version battery is so much better for me i used
to be at seventy percent by 11 a.m and off charge at 8 a.m i'm at 95 after
the update and off charge at 7 a.m and so they're saying at that time of
day that was about one in the afternoon or so
they're having much better battery life so i'm seeing that quite a bit
from quite a few people and as far as a percentage goes based on the comments
74 percent are saying they have better battery overall
now battery health is not affected by updates you'll see on my tennis max and
my 11 it's at 100 but that's just because well the 10s max
was replaced if you saw some of my previous first
videos with that last year but you'll see
both have 100 so in general battery is pretty good on this version and i
would expect that to be the case because well it's one of the final versions of
ios 13. so really i wouldn't expect any different
now let's take a look at ios 14 and talk about some of the issues we're
having there now as far as ios 14 beta 4 i've been using on my iphone 11 pro max
every single day since it came out to developers
and i've also been using it on my ipad pro 12.9
from 2020 and so this particular update seems to be okay still has some bugs but
one thing i have seen is issues with the clock widget
now i know some others are not seeing this in fact right before this video it
was showing the wrong time it was showing about
3:45 in the afternoon and it's actually 4:29 at this particular point
and so i actually had to change where the the clock was located i changed it
from charlotte to new york and changed it back and then it updated
properly so i'm not sure what's going on there i
know some people had no issues with it but i see
issues with it from time to time also i've had a few issues with
messages although not on the iphone mostly in going back and forth between
an iphone and a mac so i'm running mac os big sur
and also mac os catalina and i still have the issue on either one
sometimes the conversation doesn't show up properly it shows up okay on the
iphone but on the mac side it doesn't so i'm not sure if that's an issue with
the iphone or if it's an issue with the mac but there is that bug there
and then the other issue i had is when i was changing this widget
editing it yesterday i believe the keyboard disappeared so
i'd go in here to type a city in the keyboard all of a sudden just
disappeared and i'd have no way to input text so i actually had to close
the app and go back in it a couple times and then it worked
properly so i'm not sure why it keeps doing that but in general it has some
issues still the widgets are not able to be
interacted with and i know that's quite a concern for quite a few people
but it's just what they've done for now so right now they're not updating
properly hopefully we'll see that fixed with beta 5.
now as far as other bugs i'm having is some lag and locking up still and you're
saying the same thing so as far as the overall performance
most of the time at least on the 11 pro max it's fine
but once in a while i'll go to input text or i'll go to open an app or maybe
i'll be in twitter and it will just freeze or maybe i'll be in telegram
and it will just freeze up i'll have to close the app out
and then go back in and i'm good to go so i'm not sure why this is happening
but again it's a beta and with beta 4 well
hopefully we would have had most of this fixed but i
think it's coming along nicely some people are saying that instagram is
crashing now the only time i had instagram crash is actually when i went
in to follow someone or unfollow someone that
seems to crash it everything else seems to work okay for
me so if i go to my instagram here you can see if i scroll down through
it's okay and it's working fine i can go over here
and go to my different instagram posts and they seem to work
okay sometimes though like i said if you follow or unfollow someone it will crash
and of course that can be a big problem for most people
since that's what you're probably doing quite a few times or even commenting but
i haven't had any issues with that now other than that some people are
saying they're having issues with the camera
i haven't seen any weird bugs with the camera i haven't had any problems with
it whatsoever it seems to be okay but for some people
it's a problem so i'm not sure if that's hardware specific
or that's specific to the iphone 7 or 7 plus for example versus the 11
pro max but i'm not seeing that on any devices
when it comes to the ipad it's been pretty good in general i don't
have too many issues with the ipad occasionally i have some weird text
issues where i can't use things like notes
properly but in general it's fairly responsive
and it should be for its speed but battery life on the ipad side has not
been great we'll take a look at battery on the iphone in just a moment
but battery life on the ipad at least for me has not been
phenomenal it's been okay but i don't charge it every day either so you'll see
here i went through the battery and i charged it last night so i'm
probably getting about seven hours of screen on time where i
should be getting about 10 and that seems to be consistent across
the iphone as well so if we take a look at the iphone 11 pro
max and its battery life we'll go into battery here and then go
to battery health you'll see i'm at 96 percent
that's normal after the time i've owned it and then we'll go
to the last 10 days updates do not reduce your battery i know i get this
question a lot and i say it a lot but the updates don't reduce your
battery health they simply re-measure it and so i had quite a bit of usage here
the other day and you'll see the usage wasn't great i used almost 100 percent
of my battery and only got four hours and 23 minutes
of screen on time three hours and 35 minutes of screen off time if we take a
look at yesterday i got five hours of screen on time and
it was charging a bit in my car so it really depends on the day how
you're using it but probably about seven or eight hours of
screen on time is normal for me on the 11 pro max normally i would get
10 to 12. so they definitely can improve it and i
would expect them to improve it in the future now before i talk about the
overall statistics of issues that you've mentioned and devices
you're using i want to talk about ios 14 beta 5.
quite a few of you are wondering when it will come out and
currently at least up to this point and based on what we've seen in the past
we've had a release every two weeks up to this point
and so i would expect a release of ios 14 beta 5 probably on tuesday or
wednesday at the latest of course apple can always change this
and they do from time to time but based on what we've seen with ios 12
and 13 that's when i would expect it now after ios 14 beta 5 i would expect a
weekly release with beta 6 7 8 gm for example so we'll probably see
ios 14 gm sometime in late september with a final
release of it to the public probably in october since apple's
delaying the iphone 12 at least a few weeks for its launch date
and that's according to apple so i would expect them to release
ios somewhere along the release time frame of iphone 12.
now as far as all the issues you've mentioned here's all the issues you
mentioned in the comments from the youtube
community poll and here's all the devices you were using as well so
if you mentioned a device i captured it here regardless of the version you were
using now let's take a look at the community
poll now at the time of recording this video
6.6 k have voted or 6 600 people have voted so i really appreciate that
and you'll see there's 229 comments at this point and i've read every single
one up until i started making this video and after i did all those statistics so
you can see here that 47 of you said that it was great
four percent of you said it was terrible now this is referring only to ios 13.6.1
so 47 said it was great four percent said terrible
seven percent said okay but some bugs and
23 percent of you said you were on ios 13.6 or older either not updating
or maybe you're on an older iphone 18 of you are on android
and i keep seeing people asking me more about android and maybe switching so i'm
curious about that now i did run a separate poll on ios 14
beta 4 last week and you'll see there's 22 000 votes and
707 comments so if you want to see bugs that people are having
feel free to look through this on the community page there's a lot of good
information there but let's take a look at some of the
comments now i apologize if i say your names incorrectly but i like to give you
a little shout out when i can so muhammad ali siddiqi said after
updating my 11pro max to 13.6.1 my share sheet menu from
photos safari and other apps are blank mohsin
said hair and the green tint on the screen is
actually starting to show after the upgrade which meant to fix it
to strange so they should have fixed that maybe try
a reboot and hopefully it's fixed daniel wainwright said working really
well on the 11 pro everything is so good best ios version in such a long time
chatting ismail said iphone 11 user here for some reason
battery life on ios 13.6 gradually deteriorated for me to the
point where i was barely getting seven and a half hours of screed on time
thankfully 13.6.1 fixed that back to the usual eight to nine hours of screen on
time shardul bandu says using iphone 10
standby battery drain has been fixed as well
screen on time has increased drastically no heating issues now keep up the good
work thank you shavam christen agrawal says every build
looks good in the start i don't know how the
battery performance becomes mediocre after some weeks
and it may become mediocre depending on what you install and what goes on but in
general hopefully most people are saying it's great
and sorry if i mispronounced your name abhishek lamba says
iphone 11 pro max it's great right now no bugs
no heating and the battery life is fine getting around 11 hours
jonathan torres says currently running 13.6.1
on my iphone 7 waiting for beta 5 of ios 14 to join thomas 35
cost says ios 13.6.1 is great for me on my iphone 11 pro
but i still have a weird bug that it causes random really loud sounds when i
lock the screen but overall everything seems pretty
stable ethan kissbert says update has been great so far on my
iphone 10 battery life seems to have improved a bit
great update overall shravan kumar says ipad mini 5
battery life improved a lot great little update carlos lopez says
iphone 8 very smooth great better than previous versions
calvin h said that he's running ios 13.6.1 on an iphone 8 plus
the battery health is excellent it's at 94 percent generally great apps open and
close smoothly smoothly no stuttering and browsing
seems even smoother than previous versions of ios as i was reading through
the comments i saw this one so i thought i'd answer it
says when will apple release apple silicon macbooks and would it have face
id and what price would it be i would expect it to be around the same
price around a thousand dollars to start as a macbook air for example
and face id it's hard to say i really hope so but
there's no information about that at this point so i'm really hoping that it
will be in there but at this point it's all just
rumors venky4791 said iphone 6s and ipad 7 user here ios
13.6.1 is great no issues battery life holds up better
than ios 13.6 love from india we'll take a look at a
couple more jeremy gensky says iphone 11 everything's running great so
far snappy smooth and getting about 10 hours of screen on time
downgraded back from ios 14 beta your video helped me with that too
keep up the great content thank you and glad i could help devin boyd said i keep
having issues and messages when i get a text and open in the screen
is black i have to force clothes for it to work properly
and also with apple music when i play a song it will not play i have to soft
reset my phone for it to work just waiting for ios 14 at this point
midsos ht says iphone 11 pro max battery life is
awesome no bugs or anything weird also the green tint bug is finally fixed for
my device that's it for ios 13.6.1 and ios 14 beta 4.
now if you're wondering if you should install ios 13.6.1
well i would say based on the feedback i've seen so far absolutely it seems to
be stable it seems like it's not having issues
other than the couple small things that i mentioned
and the people that were having issues with share sheets also seem to be having
the issues with the share sheets in previous versions so
it's pretty safe to update at this point and install it on your main device now
when it comes to ios 14 beta 4 expect ios 14 beta 5 along with ipad os 14 beta
5 watch os 7 beta 5 and mac os
big sur beta 5 in this coming week so expect that pretty soon i would
imagine we'll see that tuesday or wednesday like i said earlier on
