So 13.1 is going well

https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.f...xr-update/amp/

13.1 hasn’t fixed any of the bugs I’ve found. It’s Samsung bad.

Also have serious bugs in Watch OS6. Activity rings show closed when you get your first calorie after midnight. Just utter shit and I fail to believe not a single one of the millions of beta testers reported it.

No its worse as they have only introduced swipe typing now when Samsung did it ages ago. Again Apple following the innovators. 12 more months on my iphone and then I think its time to jump ship

Mario Kart is now available.

Wouldn’t be so sure about Android (I’ve got a Samsung A5 as well). Both are on a serious downward curve at the moment IMO.

Example of typical Android woe: Google releases security update on 01/06/19 and at the same time disclose the vulnerabilities patched. Samsung finally updates my A5 with said patch on 06/09/19. That’s more than three months with a phone vulnerable to exploits with a helpful how-to guide posted by Google.

That said, on Chrome I can still double tap on a thread name on the BBS and it zoom in. So I’m using my A5 more for browsing now. I’d never ever thought I’d ever reach for an Android over an iPhone for any task - sort of sums up how badly Apple is messing up under Tim Cook.

Havent noticed any bugs in all honesty :confused:

13.1.1 out now.

Good for you - hope it stays that way.

Everyone else: 13.1.2 now out. :D

If anyone is having problems connecting to their Sonos speaker via Spotify Connect, I've reported the bug to Apple, Sonos and Spotify. All of them deny an issue.

Temporary workaround is to close the Spotify app, turn Airplane mode on and off, and then try again. You should be able to connect to the speaker but it's not guaranteed, and neither is the duration of the connection.

Can see why Apple are not bothered as it would potentially drive you to Apple Music, but staggered by Spotify's refusal to acknowledge the problem despite hundreds of posts on their forum and on social media support pages.

Sonos app works, but alas no podcasts.

Edit - Spotify fixed it after three and a half weeks; was a fault on the backend.

There's definitely a drop in quality control when it comes to software. I still have issues with Safari's browser crashing intermittently, for example.

Also, if you use Gmail and pull down email manually, for God's sake do not just leave your mail app open. Make sure it has finished checking for mail otherwise it can loop permanently and run down your battery. In fact, probably best to check email and then force close the app for the time being.

Managed to drain an XR battery in two hours because of this. :(

Anyone else noticing a dropping out of signal since the update? I’ve had to restart my XR a couple of times now as it can’t find o2 signal in areas which I know are strong. Restart does the trick but it should be unnecessary.

13.1.2 released now.

Anyone risked it yet?

No.

Nor the iPad os

I have and there some new feautres in Health app etc.

It is same as the old one to be fair

Both iPads annoyingly auto updated last night when I forgot to unplug them. Both seemed solid enough so I updated my phone.

Oh dear mother of god, my phone is now incapable of receiving calls, safari just doesn’t work, and several apps I use all the time just freeze on opening. All my Garmin devices are unable to connect to the phone and my cars hands free drops every call after about ten seconds and reboots both the phone and the car’s Bluetooth.

I've found it really helps me keep on top of my menstrual cycle.....

Joking aside, CarPlay is much better (when you can get it to work) and I like the night and day thing

Iphone iOs 13.1.3 issue. Can't seem to download Mail attachments. I click on it, or 'tap to download' like I did before but nothing happens, and the attachment won't open.

Any ideas?

Do you know if you can turn that feature off if you don't like it?
