Seems like we’re missing an iOS 15 thread!
Who’s on it? What’re you liking/disliking?
I was surprised how many of my ‘normal’ apps work on it, at least compared to previous years. I’m also really appreciating the different focus profiles, they certainly help reduce the distractions at work.
I’m not yet getting on with the new safari design although I do like having more space for the actual page.
It’s been pretty reliable at the moment 
I’m on a weird Appleseed Beta so I can’t speak for how buggy is the Dev Beta.
There has been some apps that are incompatible with iOS 15 which really sucks but all in all it’s been a pretty smooth release on all my devices so far. Then again not much as changed so you’d hope it wouldn’t break much.
Using iOS 15 here with no major issues most of my apps are working. The thing I am getting used to the most is the change of the search and url bar on safari.
Sadly mostly everything gets leaked nowadays
I’m an AppleSeed member 
no one has leaked it yet I don’t think 
It’s super easy to get a dev account though, and I don’t mind paying for the early access 
It has certainly been very easy to get a dev one for a long time 
In answer to Dan’s original post, I’m loving it on my iPad.
Unsure whether to install on my iPhone yet, but probably will soon.
New safari on iPad is very cool - interested to see how it will be on phone.
It’s like a middle ground between the public beta and the dev beta. You get a more reliable build that won’t break as often.
36 hours on, I’ve found the tab bar changes to Safari to just be a disaster.
I just can’t get on with it at all. Back to Firefox.
I stopped paying like 5 years ago but I still have access to the betas for some reason.
Or Google apple beta profiles for free if you want the beta.
I’m on ios15. Main issues I’ve seen so far are that Mail is buggy and will say no email or just one email and you have to go out and back in or manual refresh. Safari is a bit odd that when you click the bottom you type in the top. I get why but just a bit odd. Think I’ll get used to it though.
Beta has been great so far on my iPad. Time to stick it on my iPhone!
Isn’t this usually an identical build to the developer betas, without the requirement to be a developer, since it’s invitation only?
You could check the build number but I’m pretty sure it would be the same.
My build number is 15.0 (19A5261w) normally from my experience on the Beta Appleseed is behind the developer by about a week after the original release.
The developer beta build is 19A5261w as well!
Same with me, I still have direct access through the iOS Dev portal as I used to pay years back. I thought it might have been a fluke, but it looks like they just don’t stop access to some of the tools.
On iOS 15. It has been very stable for me. I prefer how notifications have changed but Safari is a pain. Luckily, I don’t use it that much.
I have/had an issue with iCloud+ Relay stopping my internet at times but that seems to have settled down and more on macOS Monteray.
One thing I have found is better is the stability of activating hotspot from other devices. On iOS14 activating hotspot on my phone from my iPad was a bit dodgy but working perfectly now!
I agree with you completely, generally developer and Appleseed track with identical builds released at the same time, although they use different profiles. Clearly this would allow them to diverge if it was thought necessary.
It is the public beta that is generally a week behind, with the same build but released later. This is to allow for emergency fixes, if needed, before the public receive a build - but that actually happening is very rare. On the rare occasion it does happen, an updated beta is usually then released for beta/Appleseed at the same time to sort the issue.
The exact timing of the “public delay” varies depending on where in the beta process the current testing release is (towards the end the delay will often be only hours, for more stable builds, compared to days). At this time of year, around WWDC, the first few betas are always developer only and the public beta track often continues on a x.x beta track for an upcoming summer point release. This is what happened last year, and it’s currently happening again with iOS 14.7 now in testing simultaneously with iOS 15. Developers could also be testing iOS 14.7, with the iOS 14 profile, but obviously Apple is not expecting them to test it extensively as they focus their attention on iOS 15. The public beta users are therefore ideal at filling the gap.
TL;DR there are three tracks to the betas: public, AppleSeed and developer. Developer and AppleSeed are almost always identical but public diverges more often.
On iPad I’m also missing the old display. Haven’t really played with widgets but the automatic implementation isn’t great!
Had a respring today trying to change volume on the Apple TV remote but my first one I think!
I get the safari thing, it does some weird things for me when trying to google and stuff but never paying attention enough to see exactly what happens……
