Done it. Works perfectly. Why wouldn’t you do it?
Because it currently breaks Microsoft email accounts.

I love early adopters, I just rock up and install it in a month or so when you lot have identified the problems thumbup

Yep, you’re absolutely correct. Didn’t expect it to do that!

Fortunately I rarely use BT but I can see why that’s going to get annoying pretty quickly.
How bizarre - I also hadn’t clocked the shortcut does nothing. Does explain why my battery seems to be depleting further than usual.

How do I stop my Mac showing what apps I am using on my Iphone? For example, if I fire up PH on my phone, I get a little icon on my Mac taskbar which I can then get to mirror what is on my phone? Very annoying.

RXcam killed by latest iOS update? FFS. Glad I'm using android but the OH won't be happy. Though she isn't impressed with iOS in general since giving it a try by getting an iPhone 7 after years of android, something tells me she will want to shift the 7 and get back to android this weekend!

I am definitely skipping this update for a while.
Even something that I do every single day - which is flick the wifi off as soon as I am out and about - is now made more complicated than it is right now!

Have to wonder WTF apple are playing at right now in so many regards...

Interesting about Apps not functioning properly now, as in the past nearly all of my apps had an update just before the new iOS was released and this time, the only one that showed to include a new iOS update was TuneIn radio.

Try uninstalling FB/FBmessenger if you have it installed...
Just uninstalled the Facebook app on my 5S which I upgraded to iOS 11 earlier, what's your point?
The Facebook app is a known battery eater on all platforms.
That, and it's a known culprit for trying to get your location services to work (which was the initial query). It was just a wild guess.

Well I’ve just discovered how easy it is to now take a screenshot and annotate it.

Must be a doddle on an iPad, it’s pretty cool on an iPhone.
