iOS 16.4 Beta 2 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[ibookemo]

Selecting photos in the Messages app is still screwed up.

I'm not seeing it. I can write a new message and add photos without any issue. What is the bug, perhaps it's sporadic - maybe it doesn't happen on every phone?

This beta improves the below mentioned issue tremendously!

Overall very smooth

How the hell do you have 500 open tabs? 😆😂

That is some serious OCD hoarding.

I’ve got 4.

I have said for years now that our friend is very smart and special,this is just one more example!
Now the person who has 2.4 million unread emails? That’s just nuts!😂😂

Activity rings are blown up on both watch and iOS

Not seeing that either. Ip14p.

Try reinstalling the iOS with finder and the IPSW file.

Is your AOD always on? If yes, that might be a part of the reason.

AOD is off!

Ahh man... when are they going to sort out Safari, so when you delete all website data, it refreshes the favicon's on your favourites page... GGrrrrrrr. Does it on the Mac. If anyone knows a fix, tried turning off favourites pages, then back on, re-adding the bookmark... its like its hard etched into some memory somewhere.

Definitely putting this request in for iOS 17.

Aren’t those technically site data/pulled from websites though?

Should be. And what makes you even madder, if you go to the website and then add bookmark to favourite, it pulls the correct one… but adds the old one.

Does this on my wife’s 16.3.1 non beta and my ip14. but not on our iPads. iPad works like a Mac, when you select the website, your see the fav icon change to the updated one.

The Mac and tablets/phones still stores the icon somewhere, on a Mac you can go to a folder with them all in and easily clear them with cache flush.

The annoying delay in spotlight is back from iOS 16.0 beta 1-3 with reduced motion turned on 🙈 takes a short moment for the keyboard to come up each time

I do too, LOL! Every single year since 2008. But I still prefer 🐌 slow charging. It's the little things that make a big difference to me. I like to baby my iPhone. Take that extra good care! Slow charging it is

Says the person with 2+ million unread emails, 500 + open safari tabs, and 1500 photos a day taken ! 😁 LOL

Wish there were an "undo" function popup after (accidentally) closing a Safari tab...those little "x" touch targets have gotten larger.

Probably already stated, but just long press the + in Safari and see your recently closed tabs in order of which you closed them. Pick the one you wish to restore.

I’m post 24 hours now. Everything is going fantastic. Fingers crossed. Might they actually finally fixed iOS 16? Don’t want to jinx it!

Don’t worry. Even if it’s fixed for you, someone else will have have some world ending bug … that curiously only affects them. And must be fixed immediately.

Did my trip to the closest Apple Store today to see if my iPhone (13PM) has a hardware issue with FaceID.

It doesn’t. Matter of fact the checkup said all was well. That was a relief as it is out of warranty. He did try to get me to upgrade

At this point I have to go with it being a software issue. I can say since the b2 OTA update, I have only had a couple of FaceID failures. hope the improvement continues.

A Rapid Response Updated for 16.4 just popped up here…

Yeah that came out yesterday

That’s cool, actually didn’t know it was there, thank you. Sadly it doesn’t work in Private browsing (my preferred default) which makes sense I suppose but still a quick “undo” feature would be nice.

 

[LockOn2B]

could it be an indication that iOS will eventually start using the macOS style for app icons?

God I hope so

Day 2

Still no major bugs,running very smooth and quick. Battery seems very good.

@Pearsey This is going to drive you crazy. Sometimes I feel bad for myself. 2.4 Million unread emails. How long is that going to take to read them one by one?

Just hit “read all” And start fresh. 😄

Just hit “read all” And start fresh.

That would probably crash whatever mail service these are stored in.

I think a shake might undo that sort of thing; am I wrong? I'm always surprised how many actions that undoes.

Just tried it and “shake to undo” does restore a closed tab.

Is this new in Apple Maps? This is the first time I see this in the Netherlands.

Photo selection bug in messages persisted after a shift + update IPSW install. Will wait for beta 3
