iOS 11 beta 3 seeded to developers

Apple today seeded a third beta of iOS 11 for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch to its registered developers and members of the Apple Developer Program. To deploy iOS 11 beta 3 (build number 15A5318g), use the Software Update mechanism in the Settings app on your device with an appropriate configuration profile installed, which can be obtained from Dev Center.

iOS 11 was originally released as a developer-only preview at WWDC in June, followed by iOS 11 beta 2 on June 21 and the iOS 11 public beta on June 26. The first public beta of iOS 11 has the same features as developer-only iOS 11 beta 2.

iOS 11 sports a redesigned App Store, new iPad multitasking features with the Dock and drag and drop, a Files app, AirPlay 2 with multi-room audio, new Siri capabilities, visual refinements, a customizable Control Center, a redesigned app drawer in Messages and much, much more.

^ Not sure if I like the feature that the wifi toggle does not actually shut off wifi...a shortcut is suppose to be a shortcut...if I understand correctly, one would now need to press a few extra buttons to switch it off completely?

I think it will be useful just to quicly disconnect from a wifi network. I think very few people actually switch off their wifi these days for example to save battery power, I certainly don't 99% of the time. The only times I spesifically switch off wifi is if I go on holiday to places where I know for a fact there is no wifi and hardly any cell signal, mostly when I go to the bush.

Beta 3 is a bit faster. But still buggy. Files is bogged. I can't open a document via Excel. It opens up the Files app, but then closes it again. Otherwise, most of the apps still work

The app/itunes store and music bug that stopped people with Verisign certificates is resolved in the public beta 2. I can actually start using this phone now.

Podcast app is terrible.
Battery life is terrible.
Notifications are nice.
Control Centre is nice.

That's about it, everything else is buggy and lags big time.

I have and it's very buggy on the 7+ hoping the next update is better.

I'm someone who always uses the betas and wouldn't do that yet, I've installed and rolled back to 10 twice now. It's better on the current version but still full of bugs.

Hmmm, just discovered that on my network they’ve now baked in data use counters and network settings into iOS. Really tempted to update the iPhone as well now.

Data use, continuously updated in settings
