I understand the rationale for it, I'm just not convinced it couldn't be integrated into the Music app.
I listen to classical music quite a bit and I've found Qobuz to be the best streaming service for it. I will welcome an Apple competitor.
Can we get some camera performance update and stuff like that..?! I swear typing in general isn’t as snappy as it used to be.. I’m not sure if tripping or not. Also, what happened to them being able to update apps separate from the whole operating system? Did that also disappear into the ether..? I feel like they are skimping on cool or exciting features more and more post iPhone launch so you more reason to upgrade. Kind of like when the 14 or whatever comes out they won’t even talk about how excited they are to bring features to the 13.. can we get some refinements to the process of doing multiple task? It takes so many swipes sometimes to simple multi-tasking. Just little touches of cleaning it up.
You’re getting it backwards. Applying security fixes should be a priority. It’s the shiny features that can wait
Seemed to resolve an autofill issue in Safari where after filling the first field on some pages, autofill would no longer make recommendations. Now it seems to be back for all pages.
I'm fairly certain Apple isn't making a dedicated app for classical music just to separate the genre from the rest of the Apple Music catalogue. They're going to try to give it the "beats radio treatment" (term I just made up in my head) like they did for popular music on Apple Music:
It's going to be a whole array of playlists, radio stations with relevant presenters, video interviews with performers and composers, maybe occasional live-streaming events, (paid for by Apple) exclusive concerts and content. Stuff like that.
Undoubtedly it's yet another feather in the Apple One subscription bundle(s) "hat", another additional service to entice to you stay in the Apple ecosystem.
It's a smart move as I don't think any other streaming service has gone all in on catering to this specific demographic.
To see it, you need to have your HomePod/HomePods ungrouped (if they’re in a stereo pair). Then tap and hold a HomePod in the home app, tap settings, scroll to the bottom where the serial numbers and software version are and tap the Wifi address bar. Now you can see the Wifi bars.
Hope that helps!

I agree and am surprised that you seem to be the only one catching this.
I think it could be better handled than hiding. Of course, a typical Photos Memory that says “Outings to Auschwitz 2012-2022” would be a PR nightmare, but it could be offered in a more sober memory.
I know 15.4 was meant to sort battery life issues but my iPhone 11 Pro 256gb has gone from awesome to unbelievably poor. Battery life has reduced significantly im charging it half way through the day now. General stability has been hugely effected, it crashes, won't lock, gets really hot, generally being sluggish.
So annoying because I love the phone and up until 15.3 was great.
The phone is on 91% bat and hasn't had any issues previously. My average screen on time is only 3 hours a day...

Not many new features. Looks like issues are fixed. Communication safety seems to be expanding quickly to regions outside US.
My 2 HomePods are not grouped, both are on 15.5, yet I still don't see the signal strength where it should be. Odd.
USSD is now working again in iOS 15.5. Previously broken in 15.4. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/701865 ?
Same. None of my HomePods show signal strength even though they are all on 15.5. All iOS devices are updated as well.
Took me a bit to figure it out also but I discovered it's kind of hidden. You have to tap on the "Wi-Fi Address" which shows your device MAC address to toggle between the MAC address and the network name/signal strength.

I mean I did state other than he security updates. Sorry I guess I had to specifically type no reason to rush and upgrade for the actual features. Ya it was worded funny but figured you and 9+ others could figure out what I meant.
That is a new-to-me expression, and it's awesome--and much more acceptable than the similar one I know involving a certain high-ranking religious leader's gonads.
Thank you. That is not very obvious at all.
That worked for me as well, good sleuthing, @HyperliteG4 !!
