No issues with the weather app. Cellular radio on my 13 Mini needs toggling to get good signal on the regular.
Got a tip for us?

Since Beta 2 I Have noticed that "Battery Optimised Charging" is in effect even though I have switched it off, phone is randomly not charging above 88% and when look at the state it says"paused due to battery optimised charging" even though toggle is switched off.
Have tried on/off but no difference, next night does the same again
Anybody else having the same ?

New Rapid Security Response code in iOS 16.4 beta 3 adds wording about apps that could be incompatible with security updates. "Some apps may be closing unexpectedly due to incompatibility with the latest iOS rapid security response. Removing the security response may fix this," reads Apple's wording.
Could that be the problem for some of the guys complaining about crashing apps or widgets?

There’s been no real security patches in these updates and so far they’d only been testing the feature and optimizing it along the way.
They could start implementing it with a future update possibly 16.5.
Not really 16.4-specific but Apple just updated Testflight and the actionable button text is now a lighter, icier blue 🩵🫨

To try out the whole process and see if it works, to be ready and have it tested for when real updates will be needed.
Good point but there has not been one for beta 3 yet. Also as stated they supposedly are nothing to them as of yet.
They annoy me because they still involve rebooting. I don't understand why it isn't possible for Apple to provide any updates, from deep security ones, to little Mail ones, without requiring a reboot (and in the case of stock apps, an entire O/S change).
So ... I've just ignored them. Of course, once out of beta I'll be installing them, as I want security updates regardless of reboots.
Rapid Security Responses that involve the operating system require the device to restart. Rapid Security Responses that involve Safari require the user to quit the app.
That's good - I didn't know that.
I hope they expand this to fixing non-security bugs in their stock apps, too.
Edit: Apple has to reboot the App Store just to add a new colour to something

Bumpy start but this beta is lovely. Just get this lovely smooth feeling with everything. Well apart from those jittery few apps on scroll, but, everything else 😍
Battery is solid.
Connectivity hasn’t even been a thought.
👍🏼

Along with small battery widgets not working on the lock screen we can add the Tesla battery widget not working properly on the Lock Screen too, just a circle with a highlighted circle no info inside the circle like previous versions
on a side note this Beta is running great on 14PM

Apple needs to fire their connectivity team. I’ve had AirPods 1, 2, 3 and Pro and they’ve all had issues with cutting out. I also have two OG HomePods and two Minis and I don’t even try to use them anymore.
Edited to add this beta feels spectacular on my 14PM. Very smooth and responsive.

In the beta 3 I have a keyboard haptics bug—14Pro. It's not working anymore. Tried all the usual turn off and on (phone and settings) but no luck. Reported to Apple.
Anyone else with the issue?

The icons of the devices in the warranty section of the settings have changed. The dark icon no longer appears, but with a background, it looks better hehe
Also from what I've seen, the iPhone icon is customized by the model and color you have, it's not a generic one.

That’s how the process works with the actual security patches so they treat it like it’s an actual update during the testing phase. iOS betas are well established but separating security updates is a paradigm shift and this calls for a much more rigorous testing before it’s deemed ready for public.
I’m only getting 5-6 hours of SOT on my 14PM on this beta. Anyone else?
