I wonder how many care that messages lights up like a Christmas tree on speed on iPadOS, battery life dropped 90%, calculator requires 32 GB of ram, offline maps stranded them in the woods, iOS can no longer keep two apps loaded at once, ocr screenshots broke, the magnifier “flashlight” button no longer fits on the screen, or the ai text suggestions in notes are simultaneously garbage and undeletable.

Those are just some of the bugs I hit. I’d guess most normal users hit 4-5 problems this upgrade cycle.

For my side gig I need to quickly take multiple pictures (with my iphone) of subjects that aren’t still or cooperative. This used to work fine. Now the camera just quits with no crash or notice so I think I’m taking pictures but I’m not. Closing the camera app doesn’t disable or stop the camera, I have to wait or reboot. But hey, I can take really cool photos I can view in the Apple Vision I don’t own.
