Summary: In one of the first Betas I changed my side switch from "mute" to "rotation lock". Since the third or fourth beta, I can no longer see this option in the Settings menu. This means that I can't change my setting back to "Mute"

Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Settings 2. Go to General 3. Search for "Use Side Switch" Setting

Expected Results: "Use Side Switch" setting is there.

Actual Results: "Use Side Switch" setting is NOT there.

Version: iOS 9 (13A4325c)

Notes: I changed the setting to rotation lock because I use that option more often than the mute option. Because the mute button does not get transferred to the control center I might want to change it back.

Anyone else have this issue? Apple said my ticket (22185771) was a duplicate of a closed one (20765030), but this issue is still happening for me. This is the first beta where I've been filing bugs, 20+ so far, but I don't yet know how this entire thing works.

Hi - I have never seen this issue - and I've just tried to replicate as you stated, and everything is fine for me. (iOS 9 13A4325C)

Reboot?, Then perhaps revert to previous stable version, redownload beta profile, and update?

Hi Jordi,

I appreciate that your primary concern is that the setting is missing in the first place, but it may be of some use to you to know that Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings will probably return the setting to "mute" as it did for this guy: https://forums.developer.apple.com/message/44144

Obviously you'll have to redo your iPhone's system settings afterwards so I don't know if you feel it's a good trade-off...

Max.

Had the same issue as described above. Resetting all settings does help, thanks a lot!
