It’s shockingly bad for this late of a release beta.
I’m not shocked since people don’t report the bugs, then complain when Apple doesn’t fix the issue
I agree! Many complaints, but how many of those complaints get bugged?
Have you tried restarting your phone again after the update? That solves an extra 50% bugs (if any) in my testing experience
He gets paid to produce content… so he produces, I guess. His alternative is to keep quiet. But c’mon man, that’s not Gurman’s way. 🤣😂
RIP lol
You wont be able to get 16 official release now😂
If your iPad says iOS 16.1, don't worry, Apple clearly isn't able to pad things out any more. Maybe they're going to merge iOS and iPadOS back together, and this is a sign?
Oh, I'm here most days, but not all week.

Can you list the days you’re not? Thanks in advance.
It’s still correcting my words 3x after I backspace and retype it. Type something, it changes, backspace, type it again, it changes again. I’m so over the inaccurate laggy keyboard. APPLE FIX THIS
This has been the most stable beta I have used on iPhone 13 Pro Max . I have not ran into any issues at all.
Apple today seeded the seventh betas of upcoming iOS 16 update to developers for testing purposes, with the update coming a week after Apple released the sixth developer beta.
Registered developers can download the iOS 16 profile from the Apple Developer Center, and once installed, the beta will be available over the air.
iOS 16 introduces a revamped Lock Screen that offers a new level of personalization and customization through widgets, a notification redesign, and adjustable fonts and colors for the time. Multiple Lock Screens are supported, similar to watch faces, and can be associated with Focus modes.
Focus is easier to set up than before and more customizable, with Focus filters available to cut out distracting content within apps. The Messages app now features tools for editing an iMessage, unsending an iMessage, and marking messages as unread, plus it supports SharePlay, much like FaceTime.
The Mail app has improved search and tools that include undo send, schedule send, and follow up so you can get a reminder to check up on an email if you haven't gotten a response. Safari supports Shared Tab Groups and Apple is working to replace passwords with Passkeys, a more biometrically secure way to log in to accounts.
iCloud Photo Library allows users to more easily share photos with family members, and Live Text is supported in video. There's a neat new feature for lifting the subject from a background with a tap, which is part of Visual Lookup.
Dictation has improved, Maps now supports multi-stop routing, Apple Pay Later lets you split up purchase payments, and the Home app has been entirely overhauled with a new look. The fifth beta of iOS 16 added the battery percentage back to the status bar on iPhones that have a notch, plus it introduced new sounds for locating an iPhone via Find My or the Apple Watch.
There are tons of other new features in iOS 16, with a full rundown on everything available in our dedicated roundup.

Yes PB should be available now for everything released to devs yesterday. iOS, iPadOS, Watch OS, and tvOS.
👍 I certainly hope so. Nothing much has changed since the 1980's with respect to spellcheckers, and the related functionality of autocorrect seems to oscillate between 'fair' and 'crap' after each release of a new version of iOS.
