16.3 seems solid on my 14PM, except for the lock screen notifications. Scrolling thru them will sometimes turn them into rectangles and causing some stuttering but goes aways after a second. It's been present since earlier versions.
How are app auto updates working?
I just looked at mine and had 23 that showed on refresh, some from as far back as 8 days ago.
Seems that process is still wonky.

Thx!!
Fixed that.
I thought you did. When I used to have auto-updates on my iPad, I don't think it ever worked. I just add it to the list of things that quite simply do not work anymore with Apple software (for me). Unfortunately, that list is continuously growing.
Oh Apple…. Why is this so hard? So much money in this setup and it never ******* works.

Having some occasional issues connecting to cellular (LTE) data when switching off airplane mode to place a call on my 13 mini—a moment after failing to establish any data connection it attempts to connect to EDGE (3G?).
Perhaps your and my connection issues on this version have something to do with the updated modem firmware issued to 13-series devices?
Here’s to hoping that 16.4 brings us a stable modem and other sweet fixes

Anyone else’s podcasts app notifications completely broken? I NEVER receive any notifications for new episodes.
I'm receiving new episode notifications. I have them show up in my morning summary notification on my lockscreen.
When I read this forum it makes me feel like my iPhone is a faulty mess of terribly written software. But when I don’t read for a while the phone starts to feel great…I stop looking for tiny niggles all of the time.
I think the iPhone is a complex ecosystem of many, many software layers. There will never ever be a time when everything is perfect for everyone with it - it’s like a huge world of complexity. I think we just end up endlessly chasing our own tails here and feeling let down. A pointless pursuit perhaps, just a thought 🤷🏻♂️

I had the same issue in 16.0.3. Need to see if it persists in 16.3Having some occasional issues connecting to cellular (LTE) data when switching off airplane mode to place a call on my 13 mini—a moment after failing to establish any data connection it attempts to connect to EDGE (3G?).

It does, at least for me
Jeez…16.0.3 kinda feels like forever ago. Weird.Today ive noticed VPN dosent work on my 14 pro max. Unable to switch on .. waiting for the next beta
I’m using WireGuard everyday with no issues. Try deleting the vpn profile and recreating it.
It’s important to moderate your consumption of negative press. Just like mainstream media, in small doses it has its advantages but it’ll bring you down if you watch too much.
‘Round here I just mute those that come in with constant negativity. Easily the best feature of any forum.
Anyway, 16.3 is a dream on my 14PM in a vacuum. The ecosystem has been a consistent nightmare but with the complexities involved I’m more inclined to cut them some slack.
If it does that, it usually means you have some issues with your wifi router that makes it incompatible/wonky with AirPlay. Do you happen to have several different routers connected to each other, or something like that? Or any particular switches or other devices on your network?
I think it's very important to remember that a lot of issues are specific to that user, not to everyone on the planet with that device. I’ve had a couple odd issues both on my phone and iPad that I posted about seeking any others that were seeing the same thing but got essentially no response or a few saying they had not encountered that problem but also said they didn’t use their device in that way. In almost every case a later update fixed the issue for me which I assume was part of another related issue that just happened to fix mine along with it. Occasionally I’ve had to sign out of iCloud to resolve the problem that was specific to me. That’s the most drastic step I’ve ever had to take fortunately. I rarely have most of the issues posted about here, especially battery issues which I’ve not had a reason to even think about for many years. Certain issues are general iOS issues affecting many if not most users and get commented on in various forums and media outlets. The rest I just attribute to those users that use their devices in a way I don’t or have apps installed that are causing a problem I don’t have.
