Apple Releases iOS 16.0.2 With Bug Fixes for iPhone 14 Pro Camera Vibration, Copy/Paste Issue and More

[MacRumors]

Apple today released iOS 16.0.2, addressing a number of bugs that iPhone 14 owners have been experiencing since the new devices launched. iOS 16.0.2 comes two weeks after the launch of iOS 16, and it follows iOS 16.0.1, an update made available to iPhone 14 owners on launch day. The update is available for all iPhones that are capable of running iOS 16.

The iOS 16.0.2 update can be downloaded on eligible iPhones over-the-air by going to Settings > General > Software Update.

According to Apple's release notes, iOS 16.0.2 addresses bugs a number of bugs that have been impacting the iPhone 14 models and other iPhones running iOS 16. It addresses an issue that could cause the camera to vibrate and shake in third-party camera apps, it fixes a bug that led to repeated copy and paste popups, and it resolves a problem causing the display to appear black during setup.

It also fixes an issue that caused some iPhone X, XR, and iPhone 11 models with replaced displays to become unresponsive after updating to iOS 16. Apple's release notes for the update are below:

- This update provides bug fixes and important security updates for your iPhone including the following:
- Camera may vibrate and cause blurry photos when shooting with some third-party apps on iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max
- Display may appear completely black during device setup
- Copy and paste between apps may cause a permission prompt to appear more than expected
- VoiceOver may be unavailable after rebooting
- Addresses an issue where touch input was unresponsive on some iPhone X, iPhone XR, and iPhone 11 displays after being serviced

All of these bugs were found shortly after the new iPhones launched. The camera vibration issue is one of the more serious bugs as it causes the rear camera to shake uncontrollably when filming video in apps like Snapchat, TikTok, and Instagram. The stock Camera app is not affected, and until now, there was no workaround or fix.

As for the copy and paste bug, Apple confirmed that it was not normal behavior last week. Apps are not supposed to ask for permission to access the clipboard with every single paste attempt, and the issue has already been addressed in the iOS 16.1 beta.

Apple is already working on iOS 16.1, which will be released alongside iPadOS 16.1 sometime in October.

That was fast

 

[ghostface147]

I don't see it on my 13 Pro Max. /s

EDIT - First I read that it was for iPhone 14 (my interpretation after a quick skim), then later it said all eligible phones. Now I am updating. Ok ok!

Very nice! Apple is not playing games. Thank you so much for this!!! Can’t wait till iOS 16.1 is out.

 

[themick4u]

PLEASE Apple, fix the Homekit bugs

 

[I7guy]

That was F.A.S.T.

 

[Apples Apples Everywhere]

Goodbye camera shake

 

[Matt2000]

Downloading, glad it has been fixed fast.

 

[fishmoose]

Good. I’ve been avoiding using third-party apps that utilize the camera due to this bug.

 

[dms_91]

Apple on top of things!

 

[Neryuslu]

I don't see it on my 13 Pro Max. /s

I wish launch day users aren’t penalized like this in the future.

 

[hovscorpion12]

This is it. Make or break. Apple’s entire future depends on this software update.

you either live long enough to be the villain or fall and never rise.

 

[sjperformance]

Apple is Apple. That's why we enjoy using an iPhone.

 

[clcnyc]

Nothing for the fast battery drain. Damn

 

[Apple Knowledge Navigator]

If only Apple fixed macOS bugs this quickly.

 

[Lounge vibes 05]

I wish launch day users aren’t penalized like this in the future.

This might shock you, but when the phone goes from being used by dozens of employees to being used by millions of users in the matter of 24 hours, that’s when the majority of bugs are found.
Just look at the copy paste bug, one of the leaders of the team that created that feature literally said they never saw an issue internally

 

[Mlrollin91]

I hope this also address iMessage in the cloud issues as well.

Nothing for the fast battery drain. Damn

The battery drain issues always seem to appear at random. I’ve had great battery life in iOS 16.0. But I remember iOS 14.something reduced the battery life of my iPhone 11 from 3 days to something like 8 hours and it didn’t improve until the next minor update.

Notifications need to be worked on. The current UX and sluggish animations are messy.

 

[duri]

Is that spotlight bug fixed too?

 

[thadoggfather]

Apple said next week

Who's gonna be the guinea pig? Be sure to report back!

 

[JGIGS]

Hmmm time to take the plunge and update my 12 pro now? Ya or Nay?

 

[RvXtm]

Restart in progress.
The camera thing only happened to me once. When activating my banking app.

 

[Tijdelijk]

It shows as IOS 16 insteas of 16.0.2.
But is has the correct release notes.
Is this normal ?

Double post... sorry
