iOS 16.1.1 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[thadoggfather]

I would give it a couple of days and see how the battery is then. Might be related to the post-update tasks that are making the battery appear worse.

gotcha ill be curious for people's feedback after the dust settles because if im being honest, 16.1 ipsw restore has been great on battery life with my 14PM

Much better than 16.0->0.2->.1 OTA
Went to 16.2 beta 1, then restored to 16.1 -- I doubt anything was left over, but maybe some deep system wide firmware update that cant be reverted from that? Dunno, I think unlikely and more to do with restoring than that possibly but

I'm treading carefully because I have great battery at the moment.

Lots of indexing last night. iPhone is fully charged. Let’s see how the battery performs today.

the odd thing for me is when restoring to 16.1 ipsw and restoring from a 16.1 backup, my phone had great battery life almost immediately. there was no settling period of indexing that I perceived, but... I am very aware how common this is on any update in general.

Not fixed on my 13PM and Xr. Is it just me or everyone else

Fixed on my 14PM

That's interesting. I charge my iPhone every night with a classic 5W iPhone charging adapter. I've also noticed the indexing takes place heavily around 3 AM and usually lasts 30-45 minutes. When and how often do you charge your iPhone?

I feel it bud. I bought the 14 Pro and the battery life has been anything but great except 16.1. I am not eager to jump quite yet either.

Want me to cite anonymous people ? Just from skimming iPhone subreddit comments

Thanks, I've just checked those subreddits too, let's see the comments on battery then

Yup, confirm the Volume button is fixed.

Still asks to trust the computer when backing up the computer.

Not sure if the alarm clock Lock Screen widget is fixed or not. It didn't update by just changing the sleep time in the clock app or after a reboot. I deleted my entire sleep schedule in the Health app and created a new one and the alarm clock widget updated. Will know tomorrow if it's really fixed or not.

Alarm clock Lock Screen widget still broken and doesn't update.

The swiping up stutter issue is not fixed . After a whole day usage it comes back !!!

How did they manage to screw up the battery even more with 16.1.1?! UGH.

Which device?

Which device?

14 PM. So far it’s been abysmal. But I just reinstalled via IPSW so we’ll see if this proves to be better. It worked with 16.1 so I’m cautiously optimistic…

My battery drain on 14 Pro Max has been fixed with 6.1.1. I hope 16.2 maintains it.

How did you conclude that it’s been fixed? How much more screen active time for the same battery % lose?

While listening to audio or an phone call, volume button doesn’t work

HOLY **** I thought I was losing my mind! Volume didn't seem to work then would work when I held the phone away from my head. I'm glad it was an actual bug that was fixed!

The issue that the iPhone is shutting down over night is back. Come on Apple. Your people who work for this OS are amateurs!!!!

Hopefully things will improve when they come back into the office more.

Does anyone else have Findmy using 100% of background activity at night? With a high battery drain.

It's not so much the screen activity as it is screen off drain. before 16.1.1 after three hours of screen off [not using], battery would go from 80% to 65%. As of the last 24 hours my Phone only gone from 80% to 77% after three hours of screen off.

To note, I have made no changes or altered any settings
