iOS 12 | OT | Performance. Performance. Performance.

Same for me. They may have pushed something in the GM to automatically unenroll you from the Public Beta program for now since it won't be needed anymore.
Been running it since beta 1 and it's been pretty smooth. The Mojave beta had more bugs. But iOS was fine for most of the time for me. Why don't we get threads like this for macOS updates anymore?
I went ahead and unenrolled through the website link too just in case:
https://beta.apple.com/sp/betaprogram/unenroll
not long. usually only until the x.y.z update (so 12.0.1). I'd expect it pulled by November at the latest.. likely sometime in October.
have my X, Pro 10.5 and TV4K updated. Love this OS.
Thanks. I have had a crazy bluetooth bug on my X throughout the beta and went back to iOS11 last night with a full wipe. Will try out iOS12 again when the official release is out as long as I can go back to 11 if needed. Though it sucks to be on an older iOS :(
I had it too. it's gone as of 1-2 betas ago. (well 2-3 counting the stupid "update available" bug)
yeah it was unfortunate that Music and BT had as many problems as they did with the beta.. but about the last 1-2 (real) beta releases Music is arguably the best it's EVER been (since the modern Music app). Zero issues with songs/albums resuming (plaguing since iOS 10), zero BT issues, etc.
I had straight up PTSD from early in the beta when 1 playlist got permanently stuck.. so I could turn on something else, drive to the store, shop, get back in the car, and no matter what I was listening to the stuck playlist would start. Shiny Toy Guns "You are the one" genuinely now generates a bit of anxiety and rage when it randomly comes on.. thanks apple...... (hint: don't do betas)
nothing happens. 99.99999999999999% of the time they are identical (literally). I think theres been one instance where they put a critical bug fix between GM and release. and I might even be wrong about that.
Do I need to "remove" my phone from a beta profile though to get new official updates?
The best part about setting up a new iDevice nowadays is that, even when not restoring from backup, you can just hold your phone close to the iPad, and it'll sync all your accounts / passwords (including WiFi) / iCloud settings to the new device.
I updated mine then removed the beta profile
You can download the IPSW GM files. I updated my gf's phone and ipad
Wait what issue were you having? I can't find anyone with the same issues as me. My BT audio quality was constantly changing when listening to it in the car, almost as if the connection was poor. I was on the newest betas, always, up to yesterday.
The past few betas it actually got worse. Sound would completely cut out and then resume but sped up, like when you're trying to watch a movie and have to wait for it to buffer. No issues on iOS 11. Oh and this issue exists on every music source so it's not an app thing :(
Besides stability and performance, the best feature has been password / SMS verification code autofill that works in apps.
Siri Shortcuts are also nice, even without the Shortcuts app being available to really finetune commands.
Best feature of iOS 12 no one else has talked about: The South African Male voice is one of the best virtual assistant voices I have ever used.

Once I do that, am I going to get prompted to go back to iOS 11?
No just make sure you have the latest version of iTunes which supports ios 12 then do the manual upgrade if you want if not just update via the beta and then delete the profile
Yep welcome to the future, glorious change. Check out bitwarden if you don't have a password manager yet. Completely free and open source.
Hmm, must be something wrong with my phone then. Ever since the beta its been acting super weird. FaceTime calls make it run so hot I almost cant hold it in my hand and the video on the calls (the little picture in the corner) is super laggy on my screen.
Side note where is the thing in settings to see which apps wouldn't work anymore. I found it once but lost it
Apparently it'll be downloadable from the App Store on Monday when the official release goes live.
I thought I was going crazy and I could've sworn this was a big feature. I found it hidden inside the Siri Settings for now.
You know, for a GM, this never showed me any new futures once my iPhone completed the install. Could've sworn iOS 11 did that.
You can get it early if you follow these steps from The Verge. However, they don't mention opting out of the Beta Program afterwards. I would opt out after downloading iOS 12 GM, because otherwise you'll get iOS 12.1.0 or whatever in beta too.
I've been in the beta and I have the GM on both my iPhone 6S Plus and my 2018 iPad and it's great on both.
That's also the best way to move the phone if you have an Apple Watch! It'll move the watch for you
I use the News app all the time. It's great.
Yeah, it feels like a definitive rebuttal against all those who keep crying "Planned obsolescence!"
I tried it briefly but had to force it to US region or something. Want to give it an extended look and it seems better than Google News' app.
It's fine. Better than 11. Going to try a factory reset on it next week to see if that improves on it being fine.
