While running this beta, the bug with entering the passcode did not occur. Moreover, while checking notifications while the device was locked, Voiceover continued to speak. I wish similar results for those who experienced these frustrating issues, and I thank the developers for their work to solve these problems. I'm using an iPhone 12 Mini, and very much looking forward to updating to an iPhone 17 Pro.

Share Your Bug Reports with AppleVis
If you experience a bug in Apple Beta Software, the most important thing you can do is to file a report in Feedback Assistant. Please do not assume that Apple is already aware of a bug or that your report won't make a difference; your report may provide crucial information, and submitting bug reports directly to Apple helps them reproduce and resolve the issue faster. The more reports they receive, the higher the priority Apple is likely to give to fixing the bug.
If you are using beta software, please use the Feedback Assistant on your device to submit feedback and bug reports. If you are using a public release, this blog post explains how to report the issue and what information to include.
In 2025, AppleVis launched the Community Bug Reporting Program with the goal of improving the quality and quantity of information we share with the community about bugs in Apple software releases. If you would like to contribute to this effort, please submit your reports via our Community Bug Report Form.
All reports shared with AppleVis must first be filed with Apple via Feedback Assistant. More information about the Community Bug Program is available here.

Thank you for being brave enough
Like a coward, I've been waiting for this post. I turned off automatic updates, not wanting to get myself in a pickle. Thank you for diving in.
Keyboard clicks
Are the keyboard clicks back as well? Meaning, when you type in an edit field, do you hear the keyboard clicks again as one normally should as you type each character? Or is that bug still there? The only way currently to get them back is to turn off audio ducking entirely under Voiceover settings, which is obviously not ideal and not a solution to the problem either.
