So guys I'm seriously considering installing the PB on my 6s Plus.

I just have a few Q's if someone could assist:

1) How stable & what's the battery life like on a 6s (Plus)?

2) How is App compatibility; I use Insta; Tapatalk; S.Bank; WhatsApp lots?

Can't really help on battery as I only installed last night, video apps seem to have an issue, iPlayer and SkyGo don't work for me (probably not an issue for you), though Netflix and YouTube do. Whatsapp works and my banking app works, ymmv.

I'm not sure I would be installing on my main phone yet...

WhatsApp works, but you can't search for a contact when starting a new chat. It simply doesn't do anything.

Tapatalk works.

Instgram I don't use, but I downloaded it and it opens. Haven't logged in.

Standard bank app I don't use either, but it opens.

Battery seems ok.

Thanks for your feedback sir
 
I've just put my work sim into my 5s, so will give iOS 10 a proper road test for the rest of the day.
 
I'm not having that problem. I can start a new chat and click and search contacts without an issue.

The search itself works, but if you type a name nothing comes up.

Doesn't work on my 6s plus, nor on my 5, and 2 of my mates have confirmed they have the same issue. Not sure why it works for some and not others. Alas, 1st world problems
 
Ah, it works if you click in the search bar, then hit cancel then click in the search bar again. It seems to work as soon as the contacts area becomes a darker grey.

Weird this morning my Bluetooth didn't connect to the Navigator on the bike.

I'm quite sure it worked last night and that was after Beta 2 update.

Wondering if I should switch to the public Beta instead.

Ah, ok, I normally just click new message and then scroll down using the blue ABCDE on the right to search for a contact, you are right about the search box only working if you click cancel and then search.

Public beta 1 is the same as the Dev beta 2.
 
As an update, battery was pretty good on iOS 10 (on my old 5s) today, used the phone quite heavily from around midday (including about 90min as a hotspot) and ended up with 50% when I put it on charge a bit earlier.

My Air 2 is giving pretty similar battery life on 10 as it was on 9.3.3.
 
Just a quick question. Does anybodies "Maps Nearby" widget populate? Mine doesn't and I would have thought that it would since Siri is making a full time appearance in ZA and that Apple Maps now has ZA landmarks.
 
Screen rotate has become buggy on the Air, refuses to change every now and then and needs a restart.
