Updated two phones and two iPads all are running fine. It's a critical update, but also brings a lot of new features, many I'll never use, but they are there. https://www.forbes.com/sites/k...ers/?sh=5f289add1f27 Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks.

So... does that mean I should do it? Currently on 15.0 "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Forbes' take (linked in OP)
As always, backup your phone first. | |||

| I don't know man I just got here myself  |
Now they release this? would have been useful for the past two years. | |||

Nope, I only wear a mask when it's absolutely required, which these days is only doctor's offices and hospitals. Crazy, they only require a thin cloth mask which we now know does absolutely nothing.

I never liked the idea of face ID, so I never set it up. Doing the update now on 2 phones. | |||

I would not be in a real rush to upgrade to this one right now: iPhone users say Apple's new iOS 15.4 update is RUINING their battery life - with reports of charge draining within a few hours | |||

I've not seen that. Updated late last night, and started this AM at 100%, did a bit amount of screen time and two, 10 minute~ phone calls and I'm still at 100%. I usually end the day at 75-80% so we'll see this evening. Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools.

Not really seeing any battery life issues yet either, but I only installed yesterday evening. | |||
|
| Serenity now! |
No issues to report as well.. battery is about the same. ------------------------------------------------ 9/11/01 Never Forget "In valor there is hope" - Tacitus | |||

Damn! Wish you had posted that 2 minutes ago. Well, we'll see how it goes after my phone is done updating. | |||

The Covid update …

The article also says it might be normal... "Adrian Kingsley-Hughes, a researcher at ZDNet, explained: 'Installing a new OS on an iPhone triggers a lot of stuff to go on in the background, from indexing to recalibrating the battery, and this can go on for hours or even days. 'Not only does this consume power, but the battery recalibration can give the impression that the battery is draining more rapidly when in fact it isn't." | |||

It happens to a degree after every update. Way to early to worry about it. | |||

No, I am not disabling my ad blocker to read an article on Forbes. Thus the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimeter bullet. - Dave Barry "Never go through life saying 'I should have'..." - quote from the 9/11 Boatlift Story (thanks, sdy for posting it) | |||

IDK, seemed like good info, much like I got from other sources. So if you're an Apple user and don't want to update because Forbes is posting info, take a nap and let the world go by. No OS platform is immune to vulnerabilities these days. Apple is no exception but in the scheme of things they are the most careful and responsive. I know there's Apple haters, and yeah their politics are questionable at times... but really. They are trying to provide a secure platform. Disregard their warnings and solder forward if that's your thing. Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools.

Update done. Again. No problems so far. Hey, Apple? If you are going to push an update every week or so, how about speeding things up a bit. Seems to take forever to install. End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||
