So far I like the new “screen time” feature telling you how much time you’ve spent on your phone and what apps you use most (social networking, productivity, etc).

Makes you conscious of how much time you spend on your phone and is helping me to put it down more.

Also has a neat measurement app using your camera.

Any other features people like? Those are the main differences I see.

Can’t believe you didn’t mention how much better notifications are. They used to be useless. Grouped notifications are the reason I can permanently switch to iOS now.

I’ve been on it since release. Still some pretty big bugs, but it’s a nice step up in speed and battery. Very much liking it so far.

The change to killing apps on the iPhone X is outstanding, should of been that way since the beginning.

I didn’t even notice

I’ll have to play around with that, I kind of liked having all my notifications in chronological order but I don’t get a ton of them either.

Edit: LINK

You can click on this link to sign up for the beta program and it will walk you through the process. It’s pretty simple.

11.4 was a battery hog for me. 11.4.1 is more battery friendly.

For those who have 12, is Waze working in CarPlay yet?

I don’t think you’ll see this until at least the official release, and even then you may need to wait. Remember they also had a beta period for Waze in android auto.

iOS 12 has some real cool things.
But I want to go back to 11 until they work out all the kinks.

How do I go back to 11 without restoring from back up?

You can delete the beta profile but I think your phone will still think it’s up to date until there’s another iOS 11 update.

You have to delete the profile and restore using iTunes.
