This version sounds like it will just suck up a lot of resident RAM. I’ll stick with ios 10.x

Additionally the signal bars from 5 to 4 tells me Apple is aware of the poor reception issues with the iPhone 7 radio.

You can bet that new Siri animation will appear on the virtual home button on the iPhone 8.

I’m not happy with the comeback of 4 signal bars. Why eliminate a more precise way to see if you have good reception?

If it’s like the old bars, it could end up being a fine grain of 8, with each bar having two states (plus empty), as opposed to the dots which have one state. (Again, plus empty). So the dogs have a fine grain of 5. Or maybe 6… I think I’ve seen it with all empty.

(I’m not stating fact… but guessing based on from what I remember)

Dots are great for showing how many screens there are and signal bars are universally understood as showing signal strength. Why they ever mixed that up I don’t know but I’m glad they’re thinking straight again.
