Has anyone updated their iPhone to iOS 16?
The update before last wrecked my battery life down to about 3 hours. Then the last update brought it back. iOS 16 is a .0 revision and I'm a bit leery about it but I would like to check out the new passkey feature.

Any experience with this optional upgrade?

Worked required it on my work phone and I updated both mine and my wife's phone.

No problems so far.

Ran the beta on my iPad for a month or 2. iPhone 12 Pro updated and no issues.

I had it on my 13 Pro before I traded it in. Everything was fine and I loved that notifications on the lock screen are at the bottom where my hand is.

After performing a back up, I updated my 13 Pro to 15.7 then to 16. Works fine.

I'm not buying the new 14.

I’ve had 16 since release, and I haven’t seen a lot of difference since I haven’t had time to check out new features. My wife was complaining about battery life on her 13 with the latest 15.x before 16.0. It appears stable, at least, and the immediate differences I see are the size of the clock font and the “report junk” confirmation when deleting a text.

Installed on my 11 pro. Really no issues except when I got to the gym and it wouldn't connect to my airpod pros. I hadn't tried connecting up until the. When I got home, I had to go through the reconnect procedure as if connecting a new airpod pro. No big deal. There's a lot of new features that will take some time to work through.

As did I but iPhone XRs. No issues, but a ton of changes to things, starting with Siri and going on to the Lock Screen. I like it a lot.

^Seems like they actually made a lot of good changes this time.

Man, seeing all these newer phones. I still have an 8 Plus for personal and a 6 for work. Once I do a backup, I will upgrade to iOS 16. I just need to bite the bullet and get the new iPhone that was released. I will have to see if iOS 16 is even available for my work phone. I usually use it as a Guinea Pig for updates.

Normin, as I understand it, the iPhone 6 hasn’t been eligible for several of the recent security updates, so it probably won’t work with iOS 16. I had a 6 plus that I really hated to give up on, because the size was just right. I upgraded to an iPhone 11 and have about gotten used to not having a home button.
