Yeah not so good on my 14PM. I’m seeing FindMy constantly running in background. I have AirTag and MagSafe wallet with FindMy.
I don’t have any AirTags but I do have a Find My MagSafe Wallet, which isn’t currently attached to my phone (and doesn’t, as far as I know, ping when unattached). So I removed it from the FM app for now in case that might help. I prefer my original, non-Find My Wallet after sending the FM one through the wash anyways :)
 
So have we seen any apps update to Live Activities yet? Also is there a site that has an on going list of apps that are supporting it?
 
Clean Energy Charging
- New setting that can try to reduce your carbon footprint by selectively charging when lower carbon emission electricity is available

Does anyone know how exactly does this feature work? Do you have it turned on or off?
You will not be able to charge if CarPlay or Bluetooth is connected to an ice car 🤣🤣

Patience! They just got the xCode RC update for 16.1 yesterday. I'm sure most developers are working as hard as possible to get these out. Technically, they are not supposed to release updates supporting 16.1 until its released on Monday. However, as long as they don't mention 16.1 in their release notes, I understand that the updates can still get through review.

Some apps have already had it in testing since the early betas that had it included thru test flights. There was a reddit post with some but I can’t remember. Only one I know off hand is Scorespot which has football/soccer scores

Hahaha I know but the feature is so cool! I have it tracking Real Madrid right now. Just wish it was across all apps already.

Yeah, I hear 16.0.3’s been a real dog with battery life. I wouldn’t know, though, as I only use betas and not public releases :)

I would lose my mind staying on an exclusive beta path, much less a final build upgrade-a-thon, I am a turtle with upgrades in general and only do it a few times over time. But brave of you!

so far im impressed with all the RC's.

Only exceptions HomePod since cant be bothered at the moment / dont care ,and iPads not going near iOS 16 for a while/ ever on my mini5 since its 14.3 jailbroken,

M1 15.1 iPad Pro has TrollSTore so permanent signed stuff is convenient as well. And I just hear iPadOS 16 is sketch.

Everything else seems good enough:
tvOS, watchOS, Ventura, and 1 [just did this], 6.1 on 14PM.
 
Liking Live Activities already, using with the FotMob football (soccer) app and the score is displayed on the Lock Screen. All I had to do was favourite the match in the app and it appears on the Lock Screen.

I am really looking forward to it also. I think there are going to be some devs who come up with very clever uses for it. It won't just be for sports scores, that's for sure.

Right? I can’t wait to see what they come up with. I think Carrot weather has some info in their beta (I don’t know have), and Uber will have it. I think some pretty cool things will come out of it.

I'd say the jury is out on that. Mine was very sluggish this morning but is now "normal".

Yeah I am still getting the jitters when I get out of apps. I don’t understand this. I haven’t had this issue before 16.1. They are gonna put this out to everyone knowing they have problems with animations.

Edit: I remember this on the my iPhone 12 Pro with iOS 14 when it was first released. This isn’t the first time Apple couldn’t figure this out.

Carrot, in its beta, has info about incoming precipitation. That’s pretty helpful. I’m sure he will come up with other types of alerts, etc..

Stuff no one has thought of will be the best stuff!

Right? That’s the stuff I am excited about! Of course I can’t think of anything good right now, but I see I how much potential It has.

I’m convinced that this will be the best feature of iOS 16 (and will even be better when everyone gets the Dynamic Island next year)
