I’m on 18.2 with a 16 Pro and I’ve turned Apple Intelligence off. The way I use my phone I found that Siri works better for me without the AI turned on. With AI turned on asking to listen to a song, send a text, or make a phone call(especially on CarPlay) I was getting descriptive answers rather than the task being initiated.
Brandon Butch just changed his title about 18.3 from “exciting” to “strange” due to comment backlash as it just wasn’t true and he didn’t mention exciting features. Perhaps you should change your “fantastic” to something honest and not click-baity because viewers are getting annoyed. He also changed it to 18.2 instead of 18.3 as that is more relevant for his video.
it definitely has a more pronounced delay over a Bluetooth device. My wife’s Apple Watch 9 takes a ridiculous amount of time. These are all updated to the latest non beta release.
I wouldn't be surprised that iOS 19.x will be mostly stability updates, since iOS 18 will introduce the Apple Intelligence functionality. iOS 19 may allow third party app stores, a third-party web browser and even third-party NFC payment access worldwide by default.
iOS 18.3 has transformed the battery life on my iPhone 15 Pro Max. It’s so dramatic, I’m convinced there has been an issue with the 15 series phones (which introduced a new form of battery optimization when they launched with iOS 17) power and battery management the entire time in iOS 18. It’s been corrected. My battery life is, at minimum, 50% improved. No placebo, it’s well documented in the 10 day battery charts.
On the 18.2 final release, I have dealt with the flashlight bug a lot. I’ve also had a lot of problems with the camera feed taking a long time to show up after I open the camera app. Updating to the 18.3 public beta now.
iOS 18.2, iPhone 16 Pro Max here - I’m having this issue where if I do speech to text a few times within quick succession, it might just stop working completely. The button presses but nothing registers. I have to restart the phone to get it to work again. Has been happening ever since iOS 18.2 update.
After almost 15 months, my 15 Pro Max has gone down to 99% battery capacity. I personally haven’t had many issues with iOS 18 except I’ve been noticing with Spotify the album artwork doesn’t appear on the lock screen or the Dynamic Island randomly. I’m currently on 18.2.
I’m on iOS 18.2 and experiencing a lot of crashes. Notes once crashed, telegram app crashed once or twice, Spotify sometimes crashes. Didn’t have these crashes on older versions.
One thing that happens to me and I have not heard about and if anyone else has this issue when I say Hey Siri and the light flashes and I ask my question she just goes back like she never heard me. Once in awhile it makes the chime sound but when I ask the question it just goes away. I am beyond ticked off about this. Is there ideas why iPhone 16 Pro Max
Dear sir kindly need information about APPLE ONE service in Pakistan . I ask many people about this but unfortunately they don't have any update kindly reply please
selfie cam on low light absolutely destroys every detail i was able to see before taking the picture. immediately after taking it, it blurs it like oil painting. THIS HAS NEVER BEEN MENTIONED. ITS NOT A FEATURE IF IT DOWNGRADES
I have been having trouble getting notifications of text messages since I switched to the iPhone 16 plus. I don’t why . I checked the settings and I haven’t had any luck. It seems sporadic so I don’t know what is causing it.
Still a big problem with slow Face ID, you only need to turn on one greedy game for Face ID to bug and be super slow, to fix this problem, you have to restart the phone each time, quite a headache.
yk honestly i feel like the pro phones will remain the same design with the same titanium frame but the new half aluminum half glass design w the new camera layout will be saved for new iphone 17 slim or air since its a new model so to me that just makes more sense
I have the flashlight bug on my 16 Pro max running 18.2. Instead of instantly turning on, it takes 2+ seconds. Not the end of the world, but very annoying when I need light.
I had to restore my phone to iOS 18.2 after running 18.3 for a few days. a few people on reddit posted about the camera quality becoming terrible when zooming in and I had that bug. I'm on a 16 pro.
I was having major problems with memory usage and overheating on iPhone 14 PM,on iOS 18.2 until I found the problem. TH-cam was auto downloading every video I watched. I went into TH-cam settings and stopped auto / smart downloads and deleted all downloads that it already had made just under 1/2 a terabyte of downloads!!! My phone had been reaching temperatures of 108 F….
18.2 worst yet. Why? Across different iPhones it at times will not register button touches on the phone. Touch screen functions now feel broken and uncertain. Apple, how could you have let this happen? On 18.1 my iPhone could handle maps navigation and a phone call. Now? Nope it crashes at times. Also for the first time ever on 18.2 I missed my turn because the phone while on navigation mode paused when approaching my navigated turn and did not unstick until I was 1/8 of a mile past the turn. And still my Apple devices do not communicate between them to cancel the timers and as always the device not running the timer says there is no timer set. Meanwhile the timer is filling the room with alarm sounds.
Since iOS 18.3 I have trouble with the wireless Apple CarPlay in my car, when I connect my iPhone 16 pro with iOS 18.3 to my wireless CarPlay over the onboard WiFi, it disconnects my cellular data and it stop working, when I use the usb-c cable to connect CarPlay, it works fine with cellular data and I can use my streaming services…….
I'm on 18.3 public beta and a couple of the problems I'm having is with music locking up. The volume on my AirPods Pro 2 is really loud. I normally keep it around 80% and I had to knock it down to 55%. This is on an iPhone 15 Pro.
So I am currently running iOS 18.3 beta one on my iPhone 14 Pro Max and it's weird because they still have all of the 14 pro wallpapers and I can still switch between the different colors but on my 15 Pro Max, the wallpapers are just gone
On iOS 18.2 they changed the app library, if you have light mode on and dark app icons the app library is light mode. I think it’s a bug because it is not the same in dark mode with light icons and the animation is broken on iPadOS.
my problem with the keyboard is that when I switch to another language, the first few character always got typed out then automatically deleted. This has happened to me since iOS 16 I think.
@@zollotech Since iOS 18, (not only) for me, iCloud tabs only sync when quitting/reopening Safari. Same is true for macOS 15 and Safari 18/macOS. It is apparently now an Apple tradition to break iCloud tab sync with every major iOS/macOS release.
I’m seeing sudden brightness increases with iOS 18.1 beta 1 on my iPhone 15 Pro when notifications from some apps appear, the brightness returns to normal after a short period but it’s quite annoying. I was seeing this on iOS 18.2 public as well
I’m so tired of the mail app.. since iOS 18, I’ve stopped receiving emails right away it’s a mess.. it’s worst with iOS 18.2.. tried gmail but wasn’t impressed either.. don’t know what to do at this point.
When I watch a video on 2160p on TH-cam on my iPhone 14 Pro Max since iOS 18.2 I’ve noticed if I zoom in the video 2 times in a row a refresh happens the whole phone restarts very weird bug.
@ Not really, 2160p looks the most sharp and true to real life than any other options at least in my eyes but this is a really weird glitch hope they fix it asap.
I haven’t heard anyone else mention this on this channel but I got my 16 PM on release and since then I’ve had screen tearing and artifacts occasionally. It tends to happen after unlocking the screen. Apple replaced the screen but it still happens. They said they don’t know how to fix it right now
The stuttering is awful on 16pro. And touch responsiveness issue is still there . I called apple and all they say as per usual is restart your device… thanks apple …
What did u upgrade from all devices stutter its just how things load. I have a RTX 4080 super, i7 14700k, 1TB Samsung 980 Evo Pro SSD with 32gb DDR5 ram and it still has some stutters. Some notice it more than others, but its normal.

My biggest gripe is when I’m using voice to text in iMessage. I press the microphone button and it’s a huge delay before it dings to start speaking.
I'm having the same issue.

@@Appalachian4WD yeah, my Apple Watch is the same way now…takes forever for the dictation to start

Another problem I had with Apple Intelligence on, for some reason, I was still stuck with old Siri.
I cannot use head gestures on AirPods Pro second generation
Another banger aaron🔥
Looking forward to 18.2.1 with more bug fixes and performance enhancements!!
Yeah. The photos app is riddled with bugs.
@ battery not good for me
@@quadriderhonda yes, it heats up all the time in my 15 promax
@ it started doing it for my 16 pro max recently as well but at first it seemed great
I am used to a stable ios, will stay on 17.7 for a little while longer. Will go to ios 18 eventually
Thanks Aaron 😊

You can get rid off the contact photos on the mail app, go to the settings of mail app on iPhone, then turn off show contact photo, that’s it.
awesome video 🔥👍🏻
Any luck with the photo app?

As always, it is very interesting and informative.
On 18.2 on iPhone 16: Zero issues.
I have winter Weather advisory today until 3:00pm because of silk travel is and I’m getting 3-6 inches of fluffy snow
Did they fix the bugs? 18.2 is riddled with them.
Feels pretty underwhelming that these small changes are supposedly FANTASTIC. lol. 🤣🤣
The changes aren’t what I am referencing
@zollotech what are you referencing then? We're obviously missing what's fantastic!
? its a . release. Not supposed to be mind-blowing. Lol. Good lord.
@1TechCritic420 then perhaps let's lose the "it's fantastic" on the thumbnail, don't you think.
Is Apple intelligence coming to Portugal in ios 18.3?? I am faded waiting.
Depends on the European Union
Connectivity on the iPhone 15 pro sucks eggs
I keep going into SOS or just losing connection consistently
This is amazing. iOS 18.2 is so great for me. Keep it up😊
How is your camera performing? I get soft, washed out, sometimes blurry pictures. 16pm on 18.0.1
@ my camera is performing good. I’m using an iPhone 15. Is it possible that all iPhone 16 pro max models have to deal with this issue currently?
iPhone 11 Series still rules 💪🏻
I really miss ios 16

I wish you could change your iOS 18 control center to iOS 17 control center
You can re-create it for the most part
@ how can I do can you make a video on it
The option to turn off the icons next to email messages is available in settings. I’ve got them switched off and much prefer it
This is insane update
Here is a face id suggestion, how about fix it so it consistently scans you and doesn’t decide to lock you out over some weird stupid bug
You CAN get rid of the mail icons in Mail settings

Using iOS 18.3 on my iPhone 15 and iOS 18.3 is performing better on my 15 than 18.2 did
You mean in performance or battery life?
For some reason when I connect to any of the 24s and 25s Infiniti’s at work the apple CarPlay doesn’t connect or just takes forever
Battery drain so fast😢
using 18.2 screen input (taps) are laggy and the scrolling is the same. rebooted several times still no improvement

see that's what they need to do with the photos app have an option to revert back to the original style
There is no seamless integration between Siri and down graded chat gpt. I have not seen it yet.
Could you devote a video to explaining what Apple was thinking with Image Playground?
18.2 is extremely buggy, i lost network, my 14 pro max restarts for no reason.
iPhone 16 pm heats more while charging
Please tell them about the battery , please! Im so tired of repeating..!!!
What’s wrong with it ?
Indeed! Apple needs to focus on eliminating all bugs and make sure everything works perfectly.
