Anyone else experiencing strange behavior with the Watch app?

This is what I am seeing.

Strange. My Watch App is fine.

Shut down screen still shows the overlap?! 😖

I reported that a couple times on previous beta
Yes, unfortunately it still overlaps! I have also reported it, but found out one of my reports in 2019 still "OPEN", lol. Another week of suffering I guess...Or, could they release a slightly "less buggy" version along with the Public Beta?

Also (it seems nobody cares), GPS related services (Map, Weather) on my Apple Watch S7 (watchOS B5)are messed up, the Map app can't download and show the map data, and the Weather app just stopped fetching info for the cities in my list.

You are not alone, my friend. My S7 is behaving the same way. 😞

At least it still shows the time 😂

Well none of that sounds fun 👎🏼

I was excited for todays release but may stay on 15.6. Already reverted a couple times. Thanks for the reply 👍🏼
 
This beta for me is absolutely amazing. No bugs, no crashes, battery life is even better than iOS 15.6. Been using my phone since 8am, it’s 1130 and battery is 86%. Been watching videos, listening to music, using apps. No visual bugs with anything at all. This beta is my first time installing iOS 16. I’m glad I waited this long.
 
I finally jumped on board from 15.6 and this beta is running pretty darn good for me. The only issue I've experienced so far is using the feature where you can select and copy an object out of a photo and share it 3 or 4 times in a row re-springs my device every time.

Other than that, I'm not experiencing any other bugs yet that bother me enough to write about and no mysterious background app usage. I'll see today how my batter life is compared to 15.6 now that I've set all my lock screens and settings.
 
Oh what the hell…just realized that the new “copy & delete” option when taking screenshots actually dumps the deleted screenshot into the Files app.

I thought it would just delete the screenshot like you would any other way. Lame.
Wish they would add other things:

1. If you share one, have a prompt to delete it right after.
2. Let us swipe the SS down to delete and keep left as saving it. Even have a toggleable confirmation for delete
 
Interesting. My screenshots appear in the “Downloads” folder every time. iPhone 13 mini.

EDIT: it appears that taking screenshots within Safari causes the screenshot to be sent to my “Downloads” folder within the Files app. Taking screenshots outside of Safari do not get saved. If someone could test this out: take a screenshot of a website within Safari, select “copy & delete,” and then see if the screenshot shows up in your Downloads folder.

13PM - tried it and all end up in my Photos > Recently Deleted folder. Not seeing anything in Files.

Update: I have two download folders in Files: On Device and iCloud. It is not showing in either one.

Very interesting. And the screenshots you took were of Safari web pages?

I tried a few times. Never went to Files anything. :(

Cleaned out both Download Folders and tried again - nope. Everything went to Recently Deleted.
