It is working great on my Iphone 13.

Smooth as butter on my 14 Pro, no bugs encountered yet.

Really wish they'd tweak the camera though, tone down the sharpness and improve the Smart HDR dynamic range... Can't be shooting 48mp ProRAW all the time.

This is weird, I could swear that bug was fixed a while back, but I just tested and yeah, still hosed on my 11 Pro Max.

Yea that worked.

Still have the square lock screen notifications and it’s worse now lol. Are people reporting this? For some reason it bug the hell out of me and Apple either doesn’t care or can’t fix it.

I don’t have this issue on my 13 Pro. So it’s not happening for everyone.

Yeah I do that too but it’s just another step we shouldn’t have to take.

After installing 16.2 Always on Display is not working unless it's very bright.
Has this been fixed in the beta?

I’m dying to know this. The broken AOD in 16.2 is killing me.
