Yeah, did the same thing for me until I got iCloud sync working. Browse the thread backward from here or use the ‘Search’ feature if you haven’t yet gotten it working. One of @gwhizkids recent posts may be of help to you.

Lol, I just edited my original post and said that uninstall/reinstall fixed it.
Yay!
Are you using iCloud sync? For some reason it was relatively trouble-free to turn on for me; I just had to go into iCloud settings and enable it on both MacBook and phone…Yay!
I have only 1 device which is an iPhone, so I have iCloud sync turned off for now.
Yay!
I think as long as you did this before creating any boards it would work. If not
Debating the thought of jumping back on the beta train, iOS 16.1 on my 13 pro max has been terrible. Constant stutters, crashes, battery life still mediocre compared to how it was on iOS 15.7. Honestly feels like a beta lol. How does iOS 16.2 feel in comparison? Any improvements to battery and performance or just overal usability/stability? Cheers
iOS 16.2 feels generally quicker and more reliable than 16.1 so far on 13 mini. Battery drain also seems better than on 16.1 final. It’d honestly be worth a shot for you from the sound of it; I was having pretty consistently trash battery life with 16.1 RC/final that I figured what the hell 🤷 and so far, so good, really
Thanks For the insight, I might as well take the plunge. I honestly wanted to stay on iOS 15.7.1 but silly me rushed to update my Apple Watch that requires iOS 16 to work. Here’s hoping 16.2 is better lol. Thanks to all that share their experiences. I love this software community here 😀
The beta train is indeed a lovely community ♡ and yeah, my logic is pretty much: Why wait longer for fixes for “public” releases that can feel beta-esque anyway when I could just hop on the bleeding edge right now? And if something does go wrong in a beta, it isn’t rocket science to downgrade…or to just wait for the next one, since again: the beta release cadence tends to be far quicker. Little point in holding your devices back unless you absolutely need them for running a small business or something else dire.
Anyway, I hope you have fun, and that the overall experience smooths out on your iBaby! 🤓

In case anyone is experiencing the 16.1 wifi disconnect issues on 16.2, Settings > Cellular > Wi-Fi Assist might be worth a glance. The feature has been troublesome for me in the past so I keep it off, but I found today that at some point it must’ve turned itself back on. I’m not sure it will help but hey, it’s good to be aware either way.
Thanks for checking, surprised that bug hasn’t been fixed yet.
13 ProMax on 16.2 and mine is still in beta.
iPad Pro 11 2020 is still showing beta also.

Yep 🤪 I only have one OG HomePod and one HomePod mini, though. But it seems cute so far, perhaps a tad snappier 🤓
Still in beta for me! My settings page shows the same as dk001 on my 14PM.
Apart from the cameras being a little bit quicker to show live feed, I agree, no other changes. Philips Hue scenes still delayed as always.
