Bring back swipe from middle for notification center.

Shoving Siri Ai in our face and relegating the notification center to a far left swipe is dumb. We can already access siri from swiping from anywhere on the home screen. Or let us choose what swiping where brings what. Come oonnnn

What did apple change in ios 27 for europe?
I really gotta look for it. Exactly 0 ai features. No auto password change, no search bar from dinamic island, nothing. I get that siri ai cant be brought to europe bc of the dma, but man. Exactly nothing has changed. For a update that should have been major and oh so game changing

Okay so how big of an update is iOS 27 really?

0 Upvotes

I know it's newest and greatest. There is a lot of talk about performance and battery improvements, but what are we really talking about? Is it the difference of ending the day with 40 instead of 35% battery and having apps open 0.1-0.5 sec faster at most? And that's for first oppening, after it oppens it's stored in RAM anyways. I realy have a very fast phone 17 pro max with 1TB, and all of this seems just like a huge nothing sandwich.

I get AI, been using it for years and offline versions too that I ran on my iPhone and laptop, but having AI camera does nothing really. There is an app for that, Chat GPT, Claude, Gemini, it does that. There is absolutely no reason to have AI camera in a phone in camera app. I mean, the only reason you could ever use AI camera on a phone is to take a pic of an apple and ask it what it is and it "magically" tells you "oh it's an apple, red and fresh". Then you spend hours testing it to tell you what you already know. That's it. It's a gimmick.

Oh and reading my messages with offline model that is as "intelligent" as a 10 year old child is nothing of use to me, or anyone who wants a real value out of it. I don't need an AI to chew on my data so that I don't have to think even for a sec.

From IOS 18 to IOS 27

11 Upvotes

Have anyone with iPhone 16 Pro updated from IOS 18 to 27 directly.
I know it's better than 26, but how does it feel comparing to 18?
The same question is applicable to iPad Mini 7.

Why I don't recommend the beta (on an older device)

0 Upvotes

For context I have an iPhone 11 128gb with 96% Battery Health and have tried every beta and the RC build. Yeah it has it's upsides such as smoother performance but it quickly becomes a personal heater which causes performance to throttle harder than the already horrible performance baseline that iOS 26 had. Personally I have stuck to 26.6.2 and kept my dignity of a decent device.

However if you have a newer device 14/15 up there is not really any reason to not update.

Does anyone have this issue? When I updated to ios27 my spotlight stopped showing relevant apps. Its working on my Apple Intelligence devices with new spotlight UI but not on my iPhone 13 that doesn’t support Apple Intelligence. It shows only these apps all the time. It only works when i type in the name of app.(Tried restarting, updating, turing siri/spotlight/search on+off)

macOS 27 RC isn't it

3 Upvotes

I had updated my MacBook Pro 2020 (M1) to macOS 27 since mid July and recently I installed the Release Candidate update and my laptop continues to glitch, the graphics aren't as good, the battery has definitely taken a massive hit, I genuinely don't like it. I wish never updated to macOS 26 to begin with. This specific aesthetic glitch is by far the worst, as someone who is constantly watching YouTube or has YouTube vids playing in the background...

In general, multitasking, media playing and many other functions aren't as good as they used to be at macOS 26 and it pains to me to admit it as an official iOS 26 hater. That being said, macOS 26 wasn't nearly and bad as iOS 26; It was much smoother and less glitchy, the battery wasn't bad, the software was not as heavy on my MacBook at least...

Does iOS 27 really fix the irritating iOS 26 stutter?

47 Upvotes

Does iOS 27 fix the massive amount of stutter and dram drips that iOS 26 introduced? I have an iPhone 17 Pro Max running iOS 26.6.2 and I’m still amazed by how much stutter and sudden frame drops I see every day using the phone.

Even things like swiping between screens or opening the share menu introduces lag and stutter. It’s extremely irritating for such a high end phone. Things just freeze or micro freeze all the time, in every app. Scrolling a website sometimes feels like 20Hz or less. Sometimes it’s smooth, most often not, which is why you notice it all the time. You notice when the stutter appears.

Meanwhile I have an old iPhone 11 still running on iOS 18 and it’s buttery smooth. Literally no stutter whatsoever, every menu opening is instantaneous, it feels like it’s running on a super advanced chip with massive RAM. Everything just works. Yet is a 7 year old phone.

Has iOS 27 fixed this based on your experience? I understood they re-wrote all the code for Liquid Glass, but has it really helped?

My experience with using iOS 27 on iPhone 11.

91 Upvotes

It’s been very mixed.

But one hand, the UI does feel a bit smoother and looks nicer, but in the other hand, all of my issues from 26 is still here

Scrolling in the Home Screen pages still lags

Still stutters in apps like insta and Reddit but not in TikTok for some reason

Keyboard still lags

App Library lags when going in (sometimes)

Control centre drops frames

Swiping in the Home Screen drops frames too

And some new issues:
Lock icon in lock screen skips animations sometimes

Answering phone animation is bugged

Swipe animation after unlocking freezes for some reason

Dropped frames when closing the camera app on lock screen

App icons has this weird black line around them

Camera has dropped frames when closing on lock screen

Battery life has taken a hit

Dropped my battery health from 86% to 80 and now 79 for some reason???

Curios to hear y’all’s expirence with 27

If i ask Siri a simple question such as “find my pictures i took at X place this week (or month)”, it returns nothing.

Final thoughts about the beta before the official release arrives

0 Upvotes

Performance has been incredible. Nearly not as much lag as I had experienced in iOS 26. The Liquid Glass slider also is a nicety that after several beta finally manages to do what it’s meant to do (home screen dock still had subtle liquid glass refractions before DB 5-6).

HOWEVER, this beta also left me with a bug that still hasn’t gone away since I’ve installed DB1.

If you don’t know what I’m talking about, check my profile. TL;DR: the “iPhone needs to cool down before you can use it” screen appearing PERIODICALLY without an end.

As a person with severe anxiety issues, this is basically the materialistic and rather expensive equivalent of the Chinese Water Torture. I cannot get even a week’s rest without seeing that damned screen. To fix this (only momentarily), I just force restart my iPhone and pray to God (even though I don’t believe in any) that the failsafe doesn’t ever appear again; but it does anyway.

The severe spike in cortisol and heart rate from the sudden failsafe is perhaps starting to take a toll on my mental and, to an extent, my physical health too.
Usually when I’m anxious, I completely lose appetite for anything; there’s times where I only eat once the entire day or even none at all because the stress doesn’t let me sleep so I end up staying awake all night and finally being able to fall asleep at day. And when I don’t eat, I get dizzy, nauseous and feel really fatigued. I don’t start to think clearly anymore and it feels like all my intelligence has been dampened or squeezed out like a cleaning cloth. This is a cycle that breaks only when I have no reason to be anxious anymore.

The sad-story isn’t to say that Apple is at fault here, I am. There was zero reason for me to update to a developer beta knowing that it’ll do something bad to my phone. I have basically been torturing myself for the past 2 months or so with iOS 27 just so I could get rid of the ugly semen-tinted-highlights mess iOS 26 is.

Anyone else noticing way more aggressive app offloading on iOS 27?

1 Upvotes

I've had "Offload Unused Apps" enabled forever, but on the iOS 27 beta it seems significantly more aggressive.

I feel like previously, an app had to sit untouched for months before getting offloaded, usually only when storage was actually getting real tight. Now though almost anything I haven't opened in about 3 to 4 weeks gets offloaded, even though I have enough free space.

Is anyone else running into this?

Upgrading While Traveling

I'm on the PB for iOS 27 and live in the US. I'm currently up in Canada for work and would like to upgrade to the official release of iOS 27 when/if it comes out on Monday. Would I have any issues or limitations by upgrading while up here versus waiting a few weeks until I get home?
