Exactly this. It seems some people just look at it purely from their own point of view rather than more broadly. Amusingly, I was down voted for suggesting this is a useful stat for devs with zero explanation 🤣

iOS 16 Adoption Outpaces iOS 15 Adoption in First Two Days

The lockscreen changes alone are huge. It's worth it for that alone.
During iOS 15 WWDC, Apple openly announced that they would still maintain iOS 14. And the fact that Apple didn't push iOS 15 hard in the beginning, obviously uptake was slower. Didn't help with the bugs aplenty.
If Apple would keep iOS 15 updated for dropped devices (iphone 6s and 7), I'll be happy.
That gives me more time to think about upgrading my 7 Plus.

That alone doesn't explain the rate of adoption when compared to iOS15 though, right?
Also, these seems like very valuable info for devs that want to know what they should be doing to make their apps stand out. No sense putting money and resources into a new iOS feature if it's not getting adopted at an acceptable rate. The more data you track about damn near anything, the better you can attempt to understand trends and why things happen the way they do.
Quite impressive numbers. I installed it like half hour after it came out, and my 11's battery life and general speed is just the same as 15.1 (last version I installed)
Bro you going to cause your parents more unnecessary stress. Why couldn’t you at least wait until 16.1. They should be able to relax with their phone.
I wonder how many people opted for iOS 15.7? I was initially surprised when I went to upgrade from 15.6.1 a little after 1:00 PM ET on Monday and saw 15.7. Took me a second or two to notice the ‘Upgrade to iOS 16’ banner a little further down on the screen.
Flush out? I can't keep up with all of these new technical terms...
The streets are saying that Nicki Minaj’s husband, brother, and her affiliate 6ix9ine are still running iOS 14.
"Flush Out" being bug fixes. an OS will never be 100% bug free but fix the major bugs plaguing the OS.
Just upgraded to iOS 15.7.
Unfortunately, it appears iOS 16 is only available for updating on the iPhone and not via Windows iTunes anymore, which is much faster in downloading via wired ethernet connection.
Will wait awhile to see how many updates of iOS Apple will release and what effects it'll have before updating.

Jokes on you, I’m running the far superior iPadOS 14
So far so good on iOS 16. I'm also digging the subtle font adjustments on the Exercise app on watchOS 9.
It ain't that deep Cuz.My carrier wants to pay me in store $1000 for my iPhone 11 Pro Max on Friday. If that happens I will have to be a beta iOS 16 user for the next year. Normally I would wait until next year to install iOS 16 when iOS 17 is announced.
I too am planning to wait until 16.5 or or 16.7. My organization is likely to force me to upgrade by January though.
They'd still be on iOS 9 if I didn't backhandedly force them to keep their hardware and software updated. It has to happen sometime, might as well be now than have their bank accounts hacked in 6 months because they don't charge their phones at night.
Do you have the beta profile for iOS 15? That was happening to my cousin too and it turns out he had the iOS 15 beta profile
