There is. A few responded after I posted that with how to do it.
Basically a short left slide from the right edge, then slide right again off the edge.
And you can't do it from the middle area where the slide over tab appears.

This is not the case for me. I still have "Return" on the keyboard for new lines and "Send" on the row above the keyboard.
Return does 'send' in Messages but only using an external keyboard.
To skip a line (like pressing return on the on screen keyboard) it is alt/option + return
I'm fine with this behavior.
edit: although hopefully it becomes consistent. Messages and Hangouts it is Return to send. In Facebook Messenger it is Command + Return to send.

I updated last night and finally had a full day with the public beta. Messages give me a weird color change of the "Text Message" box whenever I open a new thread, but I'll get over it. Other than that, I'm really liking it.
...except that I bought a Nike Fuelband recently and the app doesn't work in the beta. :<<<<<<<<<<

The beta version of ios9 safari runs pretty poorly on my ipad air. Ram issue?

Might be a RAM issue but try doing a restart.
Running on my iPad Air 2 with 2GB of RAM, Safari runs buttery smooth.

Everytime I update to a Beta it fucks up the order of my photos by altering the data they were taken. I have stuff from a year ago now at the front of my albums with the metadata recording them having being taken a few days ago.
Runs fine on mine. How long ago did you upgrade? I swear my Air took almost a whole day to index. Since then it's been fine though. Even Music is less awful. (Though still nowhere near my iPhone 6)
Are you running iCloud Photo Library?

Have they plugged up the hole that allows webpages to open up the App Store in iOS9?
Very few things more infuriating to me then that.

Considering they're allowing adblockers I'm going to guess it wont be a problem in the future.
Can't get this working at all?
Considering you have to swipe fromthe centre of the edge of the screen for slideover, and swiping anywhere else just pops out that annoying 'you need to swipe here' tab, why not just let you swipe in the centre for slideover, and anywhere else for page-forward?

Yeh, plex is known broken with iOS9 currently. Every other iOS beta I've installed has broken it as well.
Typically, it's never been resolved until the iOS release comes out properly either. Will be interesting to see how companies with broken apps respond to the public beta due to the fact its going to be a lot more wide-spread this time around.
Personally, I still think if you install the beta you have to expect some shit to be broken right up to the proper release date, but I can imagine a lot of companies with apps that don't work under iOS9 getting a lot of social media heat for it due to the public beta availability and an increased install base.

Well considering the behavior itself isn't a hole, and your problem is with shitty ads, I'm guessing not.

With content blockers this should eventually be fixed and on top of that it's easier now to go back to safari with the new back to previous app button.

The behavior itself isn't since they need a way of loading the App Store from browsers, but even iOS8 had tried to implement safeguards in place that were supposed to prevent it (but were quickly outwitted anyway). They'll need to do something at the OS level to manage those calls that load the App Store (like allowing users to force prompts or even blocking browser redirects to the App Store - my preference the latter).
So many times I'm trying to read an article, and the ads keep redirecting me to download words with friends or some other app. I'd close App Store and go back to Safari, have to press back on the browser and reclick the link only to get hit with the same words with friends ad again. Like 7 times in a row.
There was a workaround using guidance, but that completely blocks anything else from disturbing your browser (ie no notifications, calls, etc).
Well that's exactly how it works with Messsages on OS X so if they changed it for physical keyboards, it was to make it consistent between OSes.
I wish PIP let you resize things more. On an iPad I'd like to fill the bottom of the screen and then use the top for browsing etc. Split view would have been good for that, except it forces left/right split. For video watching (my guess would be a lot of people will use it for that), top/bottom split in portrait would be more usable.
Any chance they change that? Seems to me that any app that wants to run in landscape, like smart glass and others, would also be better suited to a top/bottom split. Otherwise will they just run in a tiny landscape window on the left/right of the screen?

New Wallpapers? They actually replace most of the previous ones, and these new ones are awful.

Yeah, these new wallpapers are a lot worse, why would they replace the old ones instead of just adding to it?

I have a feeling that deep search integration is going to be iOS 9's Extensions Support, where few apps support it on day one. I'm interested in seeing the practicality of the feature.

So far I've only seen one app update to include support for it but I'm hopeful that it will become a really useful feature.

The Outlook app (which I dislike, and would rather use OWA over) was just updated with this, and it's pretty awesome. Spotlight will now show all my e-mails and events from the Outlook app as well. I might actually start using Spotlight all the time once all my apps are updated.
Unfortunately, I can't get Siri to find the same e-mails that Spotlight could find, so that's a missed opportunity, or requires a phrasing that isn't obvious to me.

Yup. This is a problem.
Know what else is a problem? Seemingly starting with iOS 8.4.1, if you have a weak/non-LTE cellular signal, Apple Music won't play back through accessories (such as non-CarPlay car stereos), until you put the phone in Airplane mode, or some data download completes from Apple Music.
I can't be the only one who starts their day in an underground parking garage...

All the iPad improvements sound great. They didn't mention it but I'd love for a better version of the horizontal 6 Plus keyboard too.

That's what people think judging from the past. Although 8.4 was released at 11 am eastern.

Alright calm down, there was a reason they were asking now that the GM is out.
I've seen all sorts of stupid bugs and issues carry over from Apple betas to GMs that aren't fixed for months after general release.
