Look for those in 12.1. This is a double dot bug fix.

is already done, but nothing to see

Quick updates to address the issues.

Updates that support iPhones that are up to 5 years old.

I'm laughing at Android fanboys talking smack at anything Apple does that appears to be a mishap.

I mean, can you imagine buying a Note 9 in 2018 for $1200 and it comes with last years Android OS and won't have the latest one for 3-6 months?

That's ridiculous.
 
Well, happy they put back the 123 button on the iPad. If they also take the feedback seriously and restore the multitasking, control centre and gestures like on iOS 11, I'll finally update to 12 on my iPad as well.
My ipad 12.9 always had the .?123 button. Didn’t realize it was moved. I see the iphone se has number key first then emoji on the left. It is opposite on my ipad.

Ha! Ha! Just noticed that adding the emoji keyboard removes the shift keys!

Apple, you are some really funny frackers.

EDIT: Okay, I see now. They disappear when I’m in the numberic keys, so why they have the shift-! and shift-? there, I don’t know.
 
It’s still amazing to me how Apple can release iOS updates to hundreds of millions of devices at once and more often than not with no issues to speak of. Microsoft just had to pull a Windows 10 update because it was inadvertently deleting some people’s documents.

Worse than that...

Can you imagine buying a Note 9 for $1200 and it comes with the OS from last year and won't have the latest OS until months from now?
 
When will the update come for the calibration of your terrible new oled screens. They are way to warm. Consider this a warning. If it’s not a simple software fix and a hardware fix. Apple needs to acknowledge it. I paid way to much for this promoted as superior display to end up as being the worst garbage with a yellow tint to the display. I’m gathering thousands of other complaintants and will bring class action. I want my money back on the iPhone X right now. If your listening Apple today is day 17 of this garbage iPhone X’s Max. If you want my mouth to shut then you need to reach out to me with a full refund and opportunity to get my iPhone X back. Apple you need to be consistent in your product. Especially the displays. And especially when your promoting as the best ever. It’s a lie and you know it. So now I’ll be expecting the phone call from that ******** named John in your Texas office.

LOL... There are so many problems with this that... just wow. Thanks for the good laugh.

Can't you just turn off true tone? I turn it off on my XS and its bright white.

Good work Poppy. Keep gathering the complaintants....class action because you don't like something.

Yep, just another 2018 created troll account. These are getting way way way too common here. Not sure what it is about Apple products that get people to sign up for accounts on Macrumors and complain about Apple. But it is way beyond old.

If you are within your 14 day return window, return it to Apple and get your money back. If you didn't return it during the 14 day period, that is your fault.
 
Curious, but I just updated my Max and the modem firmware on mine shows 1.00.08 but I also updated spouses iPhone X and it shows modem firmware 2.00.01.
Is this normal?

Different hardware, different firmware, different version numbers. Why would something be wrong?
 
Wow. Still no fix for the errant iMessage TEXT MERGING that is wrecking all kinds of havoc?!!! Sheesh.
 
And did nothing to address the LTE issue that has led to many frustrations and returns.

And no carrier update for Verizon.

I was very disappointed that there was no carrier update for Verizon phones. I have the iPhone 8, and vere since installing iOS 12, I have been falling back to WiFi calling even when I have full signal.

I'm at 33.1 - are you at the same version?
 
Well it does improve my relatively minor WIFI issue with 2.4 vs 5 ghz. In past with other phones I still typically drop to 2.4 when arriving back at house from somewhere else, that still is same even with this update. And as before eventually my Xs (like all phones before) drops back to 2.4 band inside as well even with this update. Given I have always had this issue nothing to blame on 12.x or Xs in my experience.

The largest improvement is I can now again use the 5ghz outside of house in yard. - signal is still pretty weak but it does not fail now with this upgrade. Before with Xs and 12.0 I could only use the 2.4 ghz band outside (interference with aluminum siding I believe). Previous phones and iOS's did not have this problem and now my Xs is back to normal behavior with my home environment.

LTE is weak in my area of town for both Verizon and AT&T (which I have later of) so nothing to fix there but all phones including Xs (before and after this update) have worked fine for phone calls.

This change has annoyed the **** out of me when typing on the iPad! Glad they'll be reverting it back to how it was on iOS 11.
it makes me wonder how they make decisions like this
isn’t there beta-testing?

Praise the Lord!!! It was driving me nuts. I’m surprised more people didn’t mention it.
another thing that is happening, and also annoying me, is a problem with selecting text in boxes like this on forums like this
I try to select part of the text but it selects all of it :mad:
or it won’t stretch with the little blue dots
