Wallpaper moves a tiny bit when tilting the device, which is sort of cool, except it doesn't work properly and sometimes it just jumps a few pixels to each side which makes me feel drunk.

Also, there seems to be some sort of bug when applying a new wallpaper that makes me incapable of positioning the image as I want.

Well, it's only a beta after all.

Strange, I don't get circle with initials, maybe that's just on the iPad due to the extra room.

You can swipe message left/right to get time sent too.

Agreed, about some things, the paper effect in notes and reminders is just plain weird and to this day I still don't know how to use the reminders app properly, wanted to go in and make a quick reminder about the dentist and ended up messing it right up with tabs and duplication all over the place

Edit - Wallpaper thing is 'parallax' effect, looks pants IMO. Same on UI pop up boxes/safari tabs etc.

Cool if you use a panoramic photo for wallpaper though (may be disabled in beta5).

Not tried airdrop, got Dropbox for that.

Yeah, on closer look the iPhone never had the portrait thumbnail, so it's not getting the new circles as replacement, of course.

That is pretty cool. And about time they allowed me to see when a text was received and not just when the conversation was started.

Never saw the point of the Reminders app my self. If I need reminding of something I put it in my calendar.

Parallax as in it scrolls with the home screens? Beta 5 on the ipad just tilts the wallpaper very little in accordance with the device. Does the same on the lock screen.

With a standard photo it just tilts a few mm with the accelerometer but if you use a panoramic photo it scrolls from one side of the photo to the other based on the tilt (not home screen scrolling).

I'm sure I saw a tweet saying Apple had disabled that in beta 5 though.

What if you don't know when it will happen... I've used it a few times with the location based i.e. remind me when I leave work to pick up some milk etc.

If it could do an action like send a txt it would be great as then i could have a text sent to the wife as soon as I leave work.

lol "After not even 10 minutes of using, the app crashed and now every time I try to open it, it just closes instantly."

I'm not spending even $2 when thats the only review.

Yes there are often custom written apps but when its built in its 'normally' a lot more reliable

I liked the idea of location based reminders when it was first introduced, but like Ash said, it absolutely rapes the battery.

No, I've searched the net and it's full if forum threads saying the same, works for some panorama images but not others.
Could be a bug?
I know the image has to reach some size criteria to be listed as a panorama, but all mine are listed.

I seem to recall during WWDC, panoramic would only be on the Iphone5? Might be wrong though.
