Yup. I just spent some time this morning researching it.

Apple really screwed the pooch with 13.x. And every time they release something to fix problems they create new ones. To add insult to injury: Sometimes w/o fixing the problems about which people have been complaining.

I really wish we'd stayed on 12.x in the ensigmatic household Frown


It seems like Apple has been doing that a lot lately with updates. It seemed like up until 12, every update was solid and didn't have issues, now it seems like the updates always have issues. Kind of reminds me of when I used to have an Andoid. Frown

My employer’s IT not recommending an iOS update happens every 12-18 months. What normally happens is they’ll test Apple’s next release and give the OK to install (never seen Apple mess up twice in a row). I’ll post when I see the “go ahead” e-mail.
Apple just released 13.2.2 which fixed 13.2’s issues and Corporate IT endorsed its installation.

Problem is that the rest of the webz seems to be suggesting to skip 13.2.2... Smile

Most common recommendation seems to be that if you're not experiencing any of the show-stopper bugs in pre-13.2.2, yes: Avoid.

I'm concerned about comments that suggest that even if you don't see the issues with 13.2, you may see them with 13.2.2. I could be better off staying with 13.2 than moving to 13.2.2.

One wonders what's really going on over there that their SW is so bad. It seems like a pattern, even back in the Macintosh days. Good hardware w/ innovative experiences. Good experiences with SW when it worked. But crappy software stability (I don't know how many times I lost work because the OS crashed). It got worse and worse....

my phone - a 7s - has been acting up more than ever - over the past few days its been very bad

will Apple fix this any time soon?

this update really bites - they should have called it 'trial and error full of bugs' rather than an update

There is no 7s iPhone.

If you meant 6s, what is your battery health percentage? If your battery is old and weak, you need to replace it.

I just had to replace the battery in my 7Plus, it went bad and I thought it was IOS 13.1.3, then it really went bad rapidly, had the battery replaced and all is good again. I get two, sometimes three days between charges again.
