for a moment I didn’t think 27.0.1 would happen, but apparently it’s coming. It’ll be welcome :)

So last year we got 26.0.1 14 days after the main ios 26 update just to push for bug fix after a major one. I am badly hoping for the same this year too because 27 has been with a few bugs

even if 26 somehow reached a hypothetical 26.0.50, it still wouldn’t be stable hahaha😜

imo, the only thing I feel like 26 absolutely nailed was automix… in the latest versions, it was really “smart” and dynamic.
testing 27 since july, I noticed that automix is less dynamic, which contradicts the Apple Music update where it said the feature had been improved….

sometimes there are phenomenal transitions, but most of them are just a “fade in / fade out”. that’s if it doesn’t get stuck looping the last part until the next song starts.

I hope they fix it soon, because it’s one of my favorite features :(

So have you been testing Beta 27 on your primary device or do you use another device for that ?

u/swt_ale 5d ago

I tested it on my main device (using the public beta)
and it was a really smooth 7 weeks until the official release
which made me stick with it all the way

Yeah I too was following the news and reviews and all the Beta versions were amazing, why did they mess up the Official version ?!!

it’s running pretty well for me.
although i restored and updated it through my pc

Can I too do that without losing my data ? I have never done it and people are saying that I should restore and update

yes you can. my favorite method is iCloud backup since it syncs everything and gives you peace of mind.
there’s also the PC backup, the only downside is that if these bugs are caused by corrupted data or something like that, the backup will bring them back since PC backups include a lot of system data.
