Apple Pulls iOS 12 Beta 7 Update Due To Performance Issues (macrumors.com)
Apple has quietly pulled iOS 12 Beta 7 software, aimed at developers and enthusiasts, less than a day after rolling it out. Even as the company has not offered an explanation -- or an acknowledgement -- according to users, performance issues might be the reason. MacRumors: On the MacRumors forums, there are multiple reports of problems when tapping on an icon, which can result in a very noticeable pause before the app launches. As MacRumors reader OldSchoolMacGuy explains: "I'm seeing apps take 10 seconds or more to launch on my X. Restarted and still seeing the same issue." Some users have said that the pausing issue disappeared for them after five or 10 minutes of using the iPhone, while others appear to be having continual problems. Prior to when Apple pulled the update, several MacRumors readers had warned other users against installing the update on their iPhones.
The fact that they pulled a beta for performance issues seems to counter your argument that Apple doesn't care. If they didn't care, they would have kept the beta out there.
Well, there's spam egg sausage and spam, that's not got much spam in it.
