Realised since 16.0.3beta, access your camera from the lock screen by swiping the screen to the left. Now, there is no way to exit camera except by relocking the screen. On older iphones like the 12, you can swipe on the lower part of the screen to the right and it brings you back to the lock screen.
In case you missed it

All I’m waiting for is apple adding dark mode wallpapers again in iOS 16. And improving the battery life

Going to sit this one out this time. I was just on the iOS 16.1 betas! 😄

[antonmarashaj]

iOS 16.2 Beta 1 is going great for me!

[austinfisher]

Apple has been rolling a lot of updates this week Thanks for keeping me updated.

Hi zollo, I have had that youtube update from 2 months now, i really loved it, was trying to find how did it get changed, now i guess everyone is getting it. The update is actually really awesome. Key things that are changed are
1. UI in itself is black ( not grey as before)
2. Ambient mode( i love this feature)
3. The subscribe and other buttons are redesigned ( more modern and simpler
now)

No mention of the ‘Accept Paste’ bug which I really hoped they would fix!

[JTechSpace]

Super minor change but the Lossless icon while playing music looks slightly different.

[HACKER-mclg]

When will iOS 16.2 be released for public beta testers?

[XDDM]

If Apple stats to include more adds into their os, that's really concerning. It cheapens the experience over all. If they stay in the App Store I guess that's ok.

I seriously thought I was going to download it again on my phone until I realize it’s the beta version. Never mind I’ll wait until the official version comes on my phone.

9:41 airpod pro 2 sound drifting and syncing issue especially when spatial audio head tracking.

[MrDespatcher]

I found a small bug in 16.2 beta 1
When using the Lock Screen icon for the camera you can’t swipe up to close the camera. You have to use the power off button and restart the phone. A temporary fix is to go to screen time, content & privacy restrictions, allowed apps and turn off the camera. This is on both my 13 Mini and XR.

I’m wondering if they will bring notifications onto dynamic island instead of the traditional banners. Ngl the dynamic island now is lame, give me the feeling of Touch Bar on mac, looks fancy but can’t really do shit😢

I do have a question it may be silly ….. what is your take on cell phone covers ?? Some say it not good because when the phone gets hot it keeps the hot air in

[Colonel_Poe]

When will we get a fix for custom transparency mode frequently turning off for no reason on Airpods Pro 2?

[bharathraaj]

Does the iPhone camera gets damaged by the vibrations caused by motorcycles while in pocket ?

[garethevans]

Anyone who got AirPods Pro notice the case battery drains when AirPods are on 100 percent my old ones ie, gen 3 and pro gen 1 never did

[johnguzman]

When will 16.2 Beta 1 be released to beta testers? I still haven’t received it.
