  4. ⚠️Bug in ios 17.4 beta2, newly downloaded apps not showing in app library and popup for calls is messed up the call time is half cropped and contact posted is cropped in popup!

  6. @brandonbutch I love your updates, but I can’t stand your hands. They look like a very young person’s hands. Maybe if you could scruff them up or some dirt perhaps…? It just would give me more confidence in your reporting. Thank you.

  9. Been running iOS 17.4 beta 2 for a few days now and it’s been amazing a lot less buggy then 17.3 and I end the day with about 15% more battery then I did on 17.3

  10. 17.3 drained my battery bad. 17.4 beta 1 has been a bit better for my battery life but not great. But it’s also been very glitchy for me. I have a 14 pro max. I’m afraid to get this beta 2.

  20. @BrandonButch: Watching now, but looking to see if you mention the new setting in Accessibility. It addresses the issue of Watch 9 / Ultra 2 being too dim in dark/nighttime. Finally!
    I've still asked for more control over this, but way better to be too bright than too dim…

    👍

  29. Hi, nice review! I’m rocking iOS 17.4 beta 2 on iPhone SE 2nd Gen (2020) . I have the new digital clock but the city option isn’t available and it don’t show city

  42. I’m having problems with dictation. Since this update my dictation doesn’t work. When I press the microphone it shows a green microphone and the language but isn’t allowing me to dictate. I speak to the microphone and nothing shows. Please anyone can help me?
