On the HomeKit note, that’s no easy quickfix, it will take the 16.5 beta cycle to correct what broke likely along with other fixes, now thought to complete the start of May.

You may be on to something. I heard schools are not teaching handwriting like they use to. 😉
All of my devices are on last year’s software. Can’t tell you how much time I’ve save by not having to update them every 4-6 weeks and figuring out how to fix the next broken thing. These OS’ aren’t perfect, but everything I use is working and that’s what is important to me.
They still do for small children. Not sure at what point they tell them to forget all that and start typing everything.
Just one of the many paradoxes of the school experience.
I could be wrong but I thought it was originally yellow specifically because no one is actually yellow. The skin tone thing was years later.
Anyone else having trouble with CarPlay after this update?
It’s no longer working in my 2022 Mazda CX-30 (which is wired only). Phone still charges; just no connection to CarPlay. I have an iPhone 14 Pro.
I tried restarting the car, the phone, and deleting the car from iPhone CarPlay Settings—no help.
Edit: And now I fixed it. The car’s infotainment system settings has a “Apple CarPlay Devices” menu that lists each phone that has been connected, with the option to Enable or Disable CarPlay for each. My iOS 16.4.1 phone was set to “Never Enabled”—but my old phones were still listed with “Always Enabled.” Seems somehow the 16.4.1 update switched the car’s setting to disable CarPlay.

Wow, its almost like we never see a “what would Steve Jobs have done” comment these days…
“Ever since upgrading our iPhone 4 to iOS 5, we've had tremendous LAGS and DELAYS when typing text, such as typing the text in this comment field right now. These delays are ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE in Mail, where it sometimes takes 10 SECONDS for Mail to process what we're typing. This is tremendously annoying, and makes our iPhone 4 completely unusable!! Why did you do this to us, Apple?”
Gasp… software from Apple? Having bugs? Under Scott Forstall? How dare they.
“You are missing the point when you buy a Nokia or Samsung phone it works out of the box. There is no activation process. This all part of Apple desire for control that this process even exist.”
Blaming Apple for things unrelated to them? In 2011? On this forum? Impossible! Everything about Apple in 2011 was perfect, no issues, nothing wrong.
“Can’t innovate anymore, my a**”?
No, how about “things were perfect and rosy and happy under Steve, my a**.”
I can think of plenty of reasons why they don’t ask questions like that on set up…
First reason, it’s weird.
You need to put it what is your skin tone to use your phone? How bizarre.
Well said, but if I may?
Weird: like Apple’s stance on personal computing since the beginning, the Think Different marketing compaign?
Bizzare: like What’s a Computer marketing web ad, or like using 3D facial scan for high level security on your phone?
We already put in our location, DOB + place of residence + debit and credit card info and logon to your bank, tax preparer account, employer EI report, Fed & State/pRovincial information anyway! Your photos and phone numbers as well as your phone already can find pictures of you into an AI driven album. How Bizarre indeed.
Yes, the AirPods auto switching between devices used to be a magical experience. Now it’s a cluster and leaves me asking what the heck it is doing most of the time!
I had a problem with HomeKit when I upgraded my iPhone and iPad. Turns out the issue was that the new versions of iOS use a new HomeKit framework. I lost all the automations and it just said that the home hub was paused. I found that the issue was that my home hubs (my Apple TVs and my HomePods) were using the old HomeKit system. Updating my HomePods and AppleTVs fixed the problem and it works better than ever. See the HomeKit forum on MacRumors. I’ll edit this answer to include the link on how to update your home hubs.
Update HomePod - Apple Support
Use the Home app to update the software on your HomePod or HomePod mini.
Just an observation. I think HomeKit does not play well with other home softwares. One example, Sonos and HomeKit do not play nicely On the speaker side. Have to pick one or the other. Best to remove any that are not being used.
I think it’s just because there was a vulnerability being actively exploited.
I'm guessing the bug with downloads not being automatically deleted after 24 hours is still there too
