Brothers….Sisters… Are you Sitting in a relaxed position?










My battery is not feeling so well with this update, and my battery is down to 96%.
Let’s go buy a new iPhone 14 Pro Max 1TB 🫨

That’s the only way I can think of to get it back to 100% safely. 🪼
 
No way! How is that possible? I’m still at 100% 😵

Dang! this makes me very sad. You really need to level up and start using Apple 5W Charger. Slow charge your iPhone. By any chance, are you relying on wireless charging or annoying MagSafe charging?

In addition, just checked Apple.com for the 5W charger and it's not available. Dang it😡. And, no I don't want it from Amazon. What are we doing to do now?

Agreed, let’s go!

I was gonna wait until the 15 pro max ultra was released, but you talked me into it.☺️


Annnd they are closed until morning..🫠
Well, the thing is we're going to have to get you ready for the iPhone 15 Pro Max Ultra too in September. I hope you will be joining the pre-ordering thread with us this time around. It's so much fun!!!

Yes I do need to start using a 5w charger, I think I found one just the other day too, I’ll have to find it.

I do have a MagSafe charger but I infrequently use it because I was fearful it would harm my battery, now I only use it when my phone is wet after a washing.

Wouldn’t buy one from Amazon either, I will find my old one somewhere around here!

I will be there or be square. 🔳

And then of course for launch day we will be camping out at the Apple Store, do not forget your hiking boots 🥾 and cot! ⛺️
 
Thank you for your reply. It's been saying that for a few days now or even longer. I'm not sure why it keeps syncing. I hope to God this is not draining the battery life.

Another thing I noticed the total photos count doesn't match up with what the photos app is showing.

Thank you! I will try that tonight and see if it solves the issue. Will report! Thanks again!
No problem! Hope it does the trick.

I tried to turn off iCloud Photos and it’s not even letting me turn it off. It can no longer be turned off. I tried under the Photos App as well as iCloud. Both failed 😞 the annoying problem stays and I'm not sure what to do anymore. I hope this is not a problem I have to live with. 👎

I need a 2TB iPhone. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Apple Maps a bit laggy as it opens. Had a grey screen for a few seconds first open. Hard restart sort of fixed it. But it doesn’t seem right.

Will reinstall the app and then iOS.

Will report back.

EDIT: offloaded the app and reinstalled. All good now 👍🏼

That sucks I hope it resolves itself soon. ☹️ 🙏 weird how it straight up refused to turn off iCloud Photos. 16.5 bug or maybe a server hiccup.

8TB phones this September? 🤩👍

I installed beta profile sometime back and phone was rebooted after that. When I checked for updates, it prompted me to install 16.4 and I installed. I didn't understand what was changed as I was already on 16.4 before the installation.

How can I install 16.5?
 
This can't be right can it, for modem firmware? iPhone 13/mini/Pro/Max: 2.54.01

That's a step DOWN from the production iOS 16.4 I have on my 13: 2.55.00

You know we need to call that guy who you have in the photo. Let’s ask him for help, because he has people who can give it. I will remind him that you are a great Apple fan and that they should remember to always give you the help you need.
Hey at least we can dream!!😂
Hope we all can figure this out for you my friend!
