Do you think we're getting an Apple Event this month or not?

[fotisthomos]

It is “draining” battery and A LOT. I begin my day with 94% and after 30 minutes of screen on time it drops to 83% that is just insane!

[Daddy.please]

2:50 Damn if that’s true, Apple actually being nice to it’s old users now

[predestinatedminister]

You are one rare gem in our generation. Your updates are mind-blowing and so informative. Thank you ❤.

[maryamshah]

I hope we get an Apple Event this year, chances are we might not it have this month. I can’t wait for the 16.1 Final!!
Also I haven’t experienced the spotlight search bug, it is a strange and an annoying bug. Hopefully it gets fixed in the next beta!

[PattyKuluCakes]

I use Markup a lot in the Photos app. It’s almost impossible to pinch to zoom, instead it’ll mark the photo when trying to zoom in or out.

1st Gen AirPods Pro have always had adaptive transparency for me. I mean there’s no toggle in the settings but they do turn on noise cancelling on their own whenever there’s a loud or high frequency sound near me. Sometimes only on one side. Say the sound is coming from my right side, only the right AirPod goes noise cancelling.

[xthetic.studios]

I don’t have the bug for removing notifications while the music player is in album cover mode however the spotlight search bar definitely does affect day to day usage so hopefully it’ll be patched soon!

Also hoping they fix the jitter for the music player and widget when you tap on the album art. I think it’s supposed to jitter seamlessly as the album art scales into place however the animation has some sort of delay

[javianjohnson]

Ok its great to know I’m not going crazy with me thinking that iOS 16 is incredibly buggy. Thanks for the confirmation

[Flysohighx]

My battery life has been terrible after updating to iOS 16. With 2 hours of screen on time, I am at 30% remaining on an iPhone 12.

[paulmaric]

Useful video Brandon! It's early in ios 16, so there's going to be bugs. When finding any, best to do is report them and then wait. I'll admit, many of the bugs are quite annoying and it can be hard to use the patience virtue, but there's nothing else users can do.

[wowanmyboat]

Another issue I’ve been having is that when using air pods (original and pro) it will just stop and give me static or nothing at all randomly

[IHeartMacsHr]

Apple released 15.7 for those who are holding out and it is still signed at this point in time. They didn’t make the iPSW as public, but most websites are calling it beta software because of the RC at the end.

[cartmn]

Since iOS 16.1 beta 3 the battery life of my 14 pro has doubled. I’m easily getting around 10 hours of screen on time per day.

[garrycohen]

I’m glad I listened to your update as I purchased the 14 Pro and everyone was telling me they could hardly hear me in the car using CarPlay! Glad that it’s not just me!

[ellenm]

Photo shuffle for wallpaper/lock screen doesn’t work on “daily.” Works fine on tap, Lock Screen & hourly but not on daily.

[jordjordjord]

i wish i could go back to ios 15. i miss how it was before the update black-screened my phone and forced me to factory reset. since i got 16.0.2 i’ve just been experiencing glitches non stop every day. none of my apps are working like they used to. these fancy wallpapers just aren’t worth all the cons that this update has brought :(

[nuuwave]

One issue I’m having is the PiP mode and rotating the screen. The side with the notch doesn’t let you hide the PiP unless you rotate the screen and it gets hidden entirely. However I prefer to mode it where the notch is because I don’t accidentally tap it all the time.

But the other annoying thing is the new media player and how you can skip too far in a video when you accidentally swipe the screen.

And the last issue is the constant notification of my AirPods/case battery life coming up for no reason.

[timypeg]

I have sadly noticed the flickering on my 14 pro max :(

[juno]

does anyone else have the system data storage bug?? i dont see anyone talking about it
