I've been Beta testing for a while, but after my experience with iOS 14.6 I think this is the last time. About two-nights ago the screen started glitching, best way to describe it was flickers and no difference when switching between Tru-tone/normal. The next day I was at beach in sunlight, the phone went green hue with flickering lines. I first reset settings, and that didn't fix it so I factory reset phone. After factory reset, the phone just sat there on green hue apple logo. Dfu mode would sometimes work, or didn't. I tried restoring via iTunes, failure after failure I revert to 3U tools, I downloaded ipsw for beta and for regular 14.5 releases. After about 6-hours I finally started looking for an iphone replacement, the phone would not restore or boot. I took my laptop and phone into my bedroom to look for phones, almost immediately the iphone green hue went away and I thought let's try a restore one more time since the green hue went away. Boom, restored to 14.5 with the only difference that the phone was in dark environment instead of in light. I think beta 2 has a bug with ambient light sensor, after restoring my phone has been stable with no issues in stable 14.5 release. I'm not using beta again, this effectively bricked my phone for the entire day until the phone was brought into setting without any lights on. I've never seen anything like this and firmware would not restore until ambient light wasn't detected. I'm using iPhone 11 Pro Max, hopefully this helps someone who bricks their phone using beta firmware

iOS 14.6 beta 2, Podcast app very buggy - just Podcast App or is it beta?

Podcast app on iOS 14.6 beta 1 and 2 has been a train wreck. It seemed to coincide with the "new" podcast app released with iOS 14.5. I've read in a lot of places people are having issues with it in general, so not sure if it's a bug with beta. I've reported it to Apple already. Here is what I'm seeing:

Podcast app sporadically crashes
Podcast app will freeze up while navigating it
Podcast app is laggy and can take up 20-30 seconds for an "open" podcast to display and play.

I've tried deleting and reinstalling but problems persist. Anyone else with this issue?
