Ok, since the anniversary update I'm noticing a bunch of bugs.
First off, I already mentionned it here but Cortana doesn't work for most location based reminders. They'll work but not always, can't seem to reproduce it. For instance, two days ago, I set a reminder with my work place as a trigger. It didn't work yesterday, Cortana didn't remind me, but this morning she did... So clearly, it can work, it just doesn't reliably.
Also, Facebook, wether I use the Beta app or the main one (I prefer the Beta, much faster to launch and actually open), from time to time (can't figure out when, the only thing I know is that it's not linked to an update from the store) de-sync my contact list. I have a bunch of friends who doesn't have their real names on Facebook so it splits them out in two again and I have to manually link them again. Very annoying.
Finally, and this is a bigger deal than I thought, I have some live tiles that just don't update until I manually resize them. MSN News is one but actually manages to update after a while, but Outlook and Calendar (which are the same "app" package) just don't refresh at some point. So I end up with a little (1) bubble on my email account even if I opened the app and read the mail, and for the calender, if I let it be long enough, it will not even update the day. In my work, I kinda depend on the tile working as I have to be able to check on a glance if I have a meeting planned or something...
Anyway, I was kinda happy since the W10 update but this Anniversary update brought a lot of trouble for me on my phone. And just so you know, I did a complete reset a few days ago to fix some other issues I was having so this is as clean as it can get.
Anyone experiencing similar stuff?
