My messages now appear at the bottom of my Home Screen. How do I make it so they are back on top? Thanks
After this update, I think I will go take a "pill." But first, I will go log the name of my "pill" in the Health/ Fitness App!The pill will move there on iPhone 15.

16? Jeez what a bunch of useless, dumb features. Can't believe Apple's middle aged men came up with such garbage.
I think the UI is still simple and straightforward. But... I'm not one to intentionally stay stuck in the past and reminisce on how "great" it was back then in the old days. And then cry and whine about the present.
Anyone with a modicum of intelligence, curiosity, and a wee bit of drive will have no problem with iOS 16. Even without the guides.
Dictation really is well improved. It was rather unusable before littered with tons of manual corrections for just a few simple sentences. Siri still can't tell the difference between in and an, but she has learned to punctuate sentences fairly well including commas and auto punctuation. I don't know how many embarrassing social posts I've had because I trusted Siri to dictate something simple and didn't check, or did double check and missed a few things.
Sadly, this is the most stellar feature for me in this update. Lock screen is a welcome and long over due improvement but in actual practice, feels like the first gen of Android's lock screen customization. You cannot move things and can only put them where Apple tells you. Third party support for widgets will make it better in time, but nothing stellar.
You know it's a lackluster update when unsend email is one of the featured features in the "whats new" pop up.

I'm actually really enjoying this update so far. It's fun to tinker with, but in the brief time I've been using it, it's way faster than iOS 15 on my XR. Are other people finding their phones snappier?
If I'm still on iOS 14.8 (iPhone 12 Pro Max), do I dare go straight to 16.0 or should I do a complete wipe and an "Install as new phone"?
You mean when you didn't have any customization options and people kept asking for those?

Apple can't win with people. If they add features they're making it ToO cOmPlIcAtEd, but if they don't add features they're resting on their laurels and falling behind. People will complain no matter what they do.
Unfortunately, all the dark mode wallpapers are gone and I feel like the wallpaper is brighter than before when dark mode is turned on.
Installed iOS16 right after I was made available for download. It feels smoother!
For the Health app, could any member advise if any of the following be removed after a series of beta? They were in the previous review articles.
- search medication by text input;
- add medication by camera
- remove medication
- check side effect or interaction
Apart from archiving a medication, I could not do any of the above.

So far, I love iOS 16. Kinda makes it feel like I got a new phone.
The only thing I don't like is how the fitness widget doesn't update the rings reliably, which pretty much negates the point of having it on the lock screen.

Thank you for this.
Super helpful — there is a lot that I just did not know about.
I miss the days of getting a manual — or at least a Quick Start Guide.
👍
I believe the scheduled email option is not going to work as well as Gmails, because I think the device you scheduled it from has to be on and have an internet connection. I wonder if a device being asleep impacts the ability to send the message.
I don't believe so...it actually does send it but will delete it from the recipients device and/or the cloud if unsent within 2 minutes of being sent.
