Has anyone figured out how to really share a Freeform project? It keeps asking me to log in to iCloud, but I am already logged into iCloud.

It pairs best with Reduce Motion, hence the organization in Settings. As an easily motion-sick weenie I personally love it.

Just remember you have it on as some apps can behave weirdly on it and you think/wait for an app update to fix but that never comes.

Then one day after months I stumbled across the setting again and what do you know, the apps that were misbehaving, suddenly worked perfectly again.

Frankly, that's my fear regarding tweaking any obscure setting: unintended consequences and not being able to figure out why.

I haven't really run into any major issues with it as far as I can remember. :)

Maybe, but the more people who enable (and hopefully enjoy) a given feature/setting, the less obscure it becomes!

Yeah, you have to have iCloud sync turned on for sharing to work for Freeform.

Matter devices are supported in 16.1. Home Architecture is different than just Matter or Thread support. These are all independent features and should not be combined as one thing.

We shouldn’t have to turn off AOD to get good battery life though. Hopefully they improve it or at least give us options to tweak how bright we want it.

I'll run a full day with AOD back on now that I deleted the problem apps and see how it does but as of right now I could almost go 36 hours or more without charging on my 14PM

Have they fixed the old volume and scrubbing sliders in Podcasts yet?

Has anyone activated the new Home thingy and still able to control their homekit things using non-beta devices?

post #89 to learn all about it. In short, it's very likely that any device that is running an older iOS version without the new HomeKit architecture will lose the ability to see or control HomeKit devices.
