iOS 16.4 Beta 1 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[contacos]

I have some random issues.

A) my „Sleep“ Mode does not turn on automatically upon „calm down“ phase at night (is that the correct term in English?)

B) my dark mode does not automatically turn ON upon sunset but it shows that it should in control center, also it works with Night Shift

Well, “nevada” does mean snowfall after all.

I live just outside NYC. If you are in a location that has had an inch of snow or more this year, you’ve had more than we have!

Yea it’s been cold in Vegas as it normally is in the winter, I think Vegas has had more snow than New York City this winter.

I can confirm from NYC, still waiting for some real snow.

Woke up this morning to a Lock Screen that required pass code to unlock and screen obviously showing phone had turned off and back on at some point during the night. Was on charger by bed all night. Checked battery in settings and the phone had turned itself off about 11:30 and turned back on about 2:00. Figure it was an update that installed. Nope not that either. Weird.

Nothing yet, hoping the next beta fixes it.

Any timescale on the next iteration? I guess not. Driving me nuts!

There’s a whole thread (mostly) devoted to that very question.

But almost certainly this coming Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest.

Is battery life better than 16.3 ?

The battery life has been terrible for me. 0-100% single charge. Barely hit 5 hours. Come on, iPhone 14 Pro Max 1TB. How is this acceptable?

Used 50% of my battery with 5 hours of screen on time. Something must be draining your battery like crazy. I am happy with battery life on 16.4 so far. 14 Pro Max

I usually get around 6-7 hrs of SOT on my 14 pro max as well on 16.4. Has to correlate with the type of app you’re using and if it’s using 120hz.

Same here. I constantly see FindMy drain 1% hourly.

Is this something new?

I'm old school. Right after I moved my address bar to the bottom. OCD and nostalgia kicked in right away. I don't know how you guys got used to the using bottom address bar in Safari.

It took me 2 days to crush my OCD and ever since then I am not switching back 😊😊

It’s that old or 16.4 feature?

I think you’re going to need to be more specific.

Let’s try using complete sentences, shall we?

Those are not new features.

Getting way better than Me on 16.4, I’m getting like 3-5hours on a full charge. 16.3.1 I was 6ish or so

Same! I'm sure that's a reason why my devices stay at 100% battery health for so long

The heating issues are no joke in Las Vegas. But this is the best time because everyone leaves this town and it's pretty empty outside. Thus, less amount of waiting everywhere.

Lastly, Las Vegas has been facing extreme weather. Yesterday, it was snowing all day long. We have bipolar weather.

I wish I was there just to see the weather.

Seems amazing.

So far iOS 16.4 Beta 1 has been amazing for me!

It’s pretty bipolar. Last week, we saw 🌨️snow in the morning, ⛈️ hailing/rain in the afternoon, ☀️ clear sunny sky late afternoon, and 🌬️ breezy (wind) at night. All on the same day within 24 hours. I’m not even making this up.

📍🪫 Battery % check on iPhone 14/Pro/Pro Max. Is anyone see the battery capacity percentage being dropped? Please report. 📝
