Apple Beta Releases

Hey guys. Thinking about grabbing a new iPad Pro when They come out in the next couple of months but just wondered if anybody has had a chance to play around with the beta version of iPadOS. Had a pretty mixed experience. with my last iPad running iOS 12 or 13, I know things have probably come along way since then with multitasking and general accessibility. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Share Your Bug Reports with AppleVis

If you experience a bug in Apple Beta Software, the most important thing you can do is to file a report in Feedback Assistant. Please do not assume that Apple is already aware of a bug or that your report won't make a difference; your report may provide crucial information, and submitting bug reports directly to Apple helps them reproduce and resolve the issue faster. The more reports they receive, the higher the priority Apple is likely to give to fixing the bug.

If you are using beta software, please use the Feedback Assistant on your device to submit feedback and bug reports. If you are using a public release, this blog post explains how to report the issue and what information to include.

In 2025, AppleVis launched the Community Bug Reporting Program with the goal of improving the quality and quantity of information we share with the community about bugs in Apple software releases. If you would like to contribute to this effort, please submit your reports via our Community Bug Report Form.

All reports shared with AppleVis must first be filed with Apple via Feedback Assistant. More information about the Community Bug Program is available here.

Is not stable. It crashes regularly and the battery is bad compare to beta public 1. Facebook, photos, and others crashes. Hope beta public 3 be better. It should be out next week.

There are now reports that Apple is delaying iPados 16 until later in the fall. Maybe they'll have a later event to show off new 6th gen iPad Pros and 10th gen standard iPads with USB C. That would be cool because maybe then the standard iPad would work with the Magic Keyboard case. Too bad VO doesn't support the trackpad on it like on the Mac though.

This beta is worth that first public beta. There are more crashes in facebook, message and feedback. Tried to respond to feedback about emoji but feedback crashed several times. Was able to respond after 4 tries. Bad bad beta.
