No problem so far on my iPad mini (5th generation), iPad (10th gen), iMac (27-inch, 2017), and iPhone 14 Pro. However I don't particularly like the (a) after the version number.
I've never seen this once. Check your settings ?
Recognize sounds using iPhone
iPhone can listen for certain sounds and notify you when it recognizes these sounds.

If Apple fully described the nature of every security update as soon as a fix became available, bad guys could get a head start and target unpatched users.
Apple always detail security fixes eventually, but only after a period of time has elapsed that gives users a good chance of patching the problem. For the great majority of users it's enough to know that an important security problem exists and there's a fix for it.
I don’t think it was the main reason either, but hey, those 3.3 GB must have contained some useful stuff!
And the weather widget still doesn't work if you are on ethernet, only when on wifi.
How do you mean? How can we even connect our iPhones or iPads to the Ethernet? You mean cellular? Either way, as long as the widget can get Internet, it should normally be ok.
Took less than a minute. Downloaded using mobile data. No issues.
Since I obviously know that iPhones and iPads can't "natively" connect to ethernet, that must mean my Mac computer is what I was talking about. But more specifically, the "My Location" doesn't get any info, I had to add my town as a second entry, that does get info but obviously the "My Location" only works when my Mac is on wifi.

In my experience this is a pretty pervasive problem across most of Apple’s 1st party apps. Certainly on iPad anyway. Even iMessage doesn’t work properly over ethernet. Total amateur hour.
iPad most definitely can. I’m using ethernet right now. It just doesn’t work properly in half of their own apps.

Well the reøeas of the reponse was rapid, the rollout might not be due to thar\t bug. tph i did not notice it until yesterday, so either Ive been lucky, or apple have allredy fixed the issue, or it might just be that it only effected a small number of people
Hmm, after this update Apple Mail on my iMac and MacBook Air got issues. My mail is just stuck in the outbox folder! And I have many email addresses. Some are sent instantly, some need almost 10 minutes, and some even many hours.
Using Gmail, iCloud and custom SMTP. The same with all of them.
Does anyone experience something similar?

So when the next update comes along is this rapid security update removed automatically, or do we remove it? I like to update via Finder so it gets the whole update not a delta, not sure if you would remove it first or what really?
Just a PSA, not sure if it’s been mentioned already, but I installed this on Ventura on my Mac mini 2014 with OpenCore Legacy Patcher and it failed to reboot, had to reinstall and recover from a TM backup.
There is a notice on the website that if you are using OpeCore Legacy Patcher to not install the security update. They said to reboot into Safe mode to reinstall the patches etc.
If only I'd seen that last night! 😅 Never mind, that'll teach me for updating without checking first.
So, they sent a "rapid response" security update via the normal update process (System Settings > General > Software Update) with no warning about potential issues... And they posted THOSE warnings on the Apple website? Tell me how that's convenient and/or correct. Timmy and his minions screwed the pooch on this one.
I was always the first to update .
Now I'm the last when I hope they have patched the errors that multiply every times 🙄
