I’ve just talked with Apple senior support and this is what they’ve said I told them all the problems and they said that it’s the games fault they aren’t well optimized for new iPhones so the a16 chip and the new promotion screens so there’s no official news cause it’s not apples problem it’s a games developers problem Apple can’t do anything about it promotion has been out since 2016 and has never had a problem so we will just have to wait for games to update and get optimized for iPhones 14 pro and pro max , hope that I’ve helped you figure out the problem there won’t be any updates firm Apple that fix it cause it’s not apples fault

I don't think its the developers fault, none of the developers I've spoken to who are facing this issue with their game have a solution. They cannot fix it themselves. For example, the Retro Bowl dev said on Twitter he's waiting for Apple to fix it because it's a system wide issue.
 
Yeah makes no sense

OKAY, Why then the same problem is on iphone 13 pro/13 pro max (with IOS16) ? they don't have a16 chip. Moreover, the same problem exists on all iPads running 120hz if they are running ipadOS 16+. For this reason, I don't update my ipad pro 2021 to ipadOS 16, I just use 15.7.2.
so we will just have to wait for games to update and get optimized for iPhones 14 pro and pro max
Do you really think that in 7 months the game developers have not been able to optimize the games?
I contacted Riot Games support 4 times and each time they said that "the responsible group is working on a solution TOGETHER with Apple engineers"
hope that I’ve helped you figure out the problem there won’t be any updates firm Apple that fix it cause it’s not apples fault
you're probably the smartest guy here. They answered you with a standard answer according to the training manual and you believe it.
I read all the threads on the forums about this problem, the problem is deeper than you think and apple just doesn't want to admit it.
I guess we just have to wait
I've been waiting since I bought the phone, for 6 months now. How much longer must I wait?
This has not yet been fixed because many people do not notice this, and those who notice sit and wait for a solution without contacting support.
No calls to support > no problems for Apple > no fix.

do you know that your phone's interface runs at 80hz at its peak instead of 120hz ? do you think it's ok for a 1300 bucks phone?

it seems to me that apple optimizes the battery life of the phone at the expense of performance and hides it.

And everything I’m saying is what Apple told me at least I’m trying to find a solution by calling support I’m trying my best but it doesn’t seem like they are willing to fix it

I contacted apple support 3-4 times, went through all their steps up to resetting to factory settings.

And now I provide them with different data such as:
• screen recording,
• wild rift game screen recording (I will clearly show that on their phone in the game there are very bad 60 fps, with the 120 fps option enabled),
• video recording of the phone screen from another device (to show that on their phone in the interface the peak frame rate per second is 80, not 120).
• I also gave them a link to this topic, for familiarization of technical specialists (since there is a lot of useful feedback here).

I do my best to draw their attention to the problem.

I just want to play wild rift on a phone with smooth, stable 120hz, that's what I bought this phone for

it's just ridiculous that the two multi-billion dollar companies Apple and Riot games still can't solve a problem that will completely kill the use case of any iPhone and iPad with a 120hz screen running 16 OS for wild rift.

And I'm pretty sure that it's Apple's fault with its pro-nonsense innovations. All they have to do to fix this is to add a locked 120hz option to the motion settings, which has been on any android with 120hz screens for a long time and is absolutely the right solution.

That is just plain wrong. The same games worked well with iOS 15, didn't they? Even with the same version. Now then, who is at fault if we replace the OS on the same phone and the games stutter on the newer OS?

They're a bunch of liars it seems.

I am seriously considering how to migrate to the latest Samsung S23 Ultra series, I just wish I did not have my Apple Watch and HomePods.
 
No improvement, the issue is still happening once you touch the screen, like really wtf? Is that long lasting ****? Thinking seriously to switch to the s23 ultra
 
Yeah I think my next phone will be a pixel 8 pro. Been using an iPhone for a long time but iOS 16 just shows how Apple software has gone down the toilet.
 
I got still the same issues with my iPhone 14 pro Max… my iPad with the A12Z chip can Hit the 120 fps With no Problems on wild rift (latest iOS Update).
