Just a friendly word of advice for Apple Pay Suica users who are thinking about trying the iOS 12.2 beta: don’t. Design tweaks have rearranged and hidden some important functions while breaking others. Wait until the beta is further along or the official release. A quick rundown:
Broken
- Suica Notification shortcut links for Recharge and Commuter Pass Renewal don’t work, they only take the user to a default Suica card screen.
Rearranged
- Recharge and Commuter Pass Renewal used to be one tap away on the default Suica card screen but have been relocated so that users have a convoluted 4 step drill down through a total of 3 screens to finally get to Recharge/Renewal. This is progress?
iOS 12.2 Suica Notification Detail iOS 12.2 Suica default screen iOS 12.2 Card Details 1 iOS 12.2 Suica Card Details 2: scroll down to access Suica balance and commuter pass details Recharge is only available after drilling down through 3 screens Commuter pass is only available after drilling down through 3 screens
UPDATE: iOS 12.2 beta 2 does not have any Wallet/Suica UI fixes or improvements from beta 1
