Been there a while, apparently dating back to iOS 14.2 according to some quick research.
I definitely had that on iOS 15.5. I was traveling the weekend before WWDC and it came up in the city where I was staying. First time I had ever seen it and it was memorable as a result.
C-band only became available the last week of January and it’s still being deployed in a lot of cities across the country. People who are just seeing it might be in an area where it was deployed recently or just drove thru an already covered area.
It’s been there since 15.4 at least.
Still no file transfer / external monitor connectivity on iPad Pro 11in (non-M1) since beta 1. Device charges fine, but lost the ability to connect to a mac, USB-C external monitor, etc.
Bummed that 16B3 didn't resolve this.
Anyone in my boat?

Search in Messages seems to be broken/inconsistent. Also noticed the new tone for Siri which I am personally not a fan of; it’s barely audible when driving around and using CarPlay
Hey, everyone. Just jumped from 15 to 16 beta 3. Is anyone experiencing notification issues on the Lock Screen? No matter what view I select, when I wake the phone, all notifications are hidden and I have to swipe up to see them. To be honest, all of the views look the same. If I select count view, I never see a number count and list and stack behave exactly the same. Any ideas? Thanks.
Does Shared Library require you to be in an iCloud family already? Or can you invite people outside of it?
I tried it last night, and itunes on windows doesn't work at the moment, only 3utools. but strange things happen with itunes, the way I see it. beta 1 didn't even try to unzip the beta, it directly said that it needed an update of the program that doesn't exist yet. beta 2 did the whole process normally, but it failed when apple had to authorize the update. With beta 3 exactly the same thing happens as with the first one, and I don't understand how one beta works and another doesn't work. the version of itunes is the same, 12.12.4.1 if I remember correctly, I don't know why in a beta if the update process starts and in the others it doesn't. But hey, I've updated the last two with 3utools with ipsw and it works perfectly, so it's not a problem that I don't have iTunes at the moment.
I had something similar happen when I jumped from 15 to 16 B2. For me, a hard restart fixed it. To hard restart, press volume up, volume down, then press and hold the power button for several seconds until the Apple logo is displayed. Once I did that, the notification views started working properly.
What was happening for me was that regardless of the setting, notifications were displayed either as a stack or just wouldn’t display at all on the lock screen and only showed up in notification center.
I absolutely love the new Siri tone. Less harsh than the original. But it would be nice to have a choice.
Hopefully you are all reporting these issues as bugs? It’s always tempting to me initially to dismiss these sorts of issues as “just the way it is”. Then it dawns on me that, “no, that’s not the way it’s supposed to be, these are bugs.”
Thanks for the tip, but I did the hard reset before posting. Perhaps phone needs to finish indexing.
I had never seen this before iOS 16 either. According to Reddit, it means that even though you do not have carrier service you are still able to make emergency calls using another carrier.
It’s claimed that this feature has been around since the phone 6s (and I believe that’s correct as it’s mandated by US law). Perhaps, but as I noted above, I’ve never seen the “SOS” symbol before iOS 16.
I have been so busy at work im still on 15.6 like beta 3 LOL. I’m jumping on 16 probably today .. 👊🏼 i assume I need the mobile device package still to upgrade through finder to 16 ??
lol, sorry about that haha swear this is the first time i've come across it
My good news: the fish just showed up on my iPhone 13!!! Weird how that is swimming so gradually to folks.
My bad news: pretty sure the battery is draining much more quickly with this beta.
Also, just discovered the new dictation tone, and I am very much a fan.
