iOS 18.2 - This is Super! - Features, Battery and Follow Up

So it’s no reason to really update if you don’t have a iPhone 15-16?

Running 18.2 on 15 Plus and is defingetly smoother and battery life has improved! So far a great experience internet could be a tad better but its for sure the best so far

[@iamthatakhil]

My favourite visual change is the dark mode icons overall. Not tinted icons, I don’t use them. But dark mode icons on home screen and app library, and settings really gave iOS 18 a distinctive look. I occasionally use the clean up tool on photos and mess around with the writing tools on my mac, but not much else. I want to see the updated Siri to make more personal actions using voice which I am using more now. A slow rollout and too many things announced by Apple for sure, but overall a decent update. I hope they slow down on iOS 19’s new features and stabilise whatever they’ve built with iOS 18 and apple intelligence. AI need not be a big thing, but an updated and personal Siri can be really useful if done right..

[@vr6cmkh668]

Ever since this update, my iPhone 13 mini gets horrible cell reception, and data speeds are very slow, even in areas where I know it worked better/faster before the update.

Should I wait for 17 Pro Max if I have a smaller 14 Pro 2 years old with 86% battery health? Is it worth it over upgrading to the 16 Pro Max?

[@bmd6343]

I’d hold off. Let’s see how AI pans out and with the new iPhone 17 it’ll run iOS 19 too. Depending where you are you could ge a good deal for your iPhone 14 next Black Friday

@ yeah I know, but I don’t know if the 17 pro will be like the 15 pro or iPhone X when they make it new design but unstable experience. What do you think? Also, we never have any iPhone discounts in my country even on Black Friday, and I want to get it without trade in but as full price to keep and use my 14 pro for creating yt videos too.

Hey Aaron! Not sure if this is an 18.2 or earlier iOS bug but when you go into contacts you cannot Add a custom label for a contact Address…tried several times and when I save the custom label it switches to the default home address label.

[@craigmurdock4740]

Iphone 13: still quite choppy, lots of frame drops, even just switching through pages of my home screen, keyboard bugs, but things are relatively smooth. They also definitely reduced the overall volume of AirPods pro 2 again, second time since release. Probably because they were insanely loud, and they are now selling them as hearing aids. I used to put the volume slider about halfway up and now it’s about 3/4. Also, Vehicle Motion Cues still doesn not turn on automatically (when set to automatic) when in a vehicle. Still have to toggle it on myself every time. Automatic has not worked for me since the release of iOS18. Lastly, these new AI features look horrible. Apple has gone from innovator to being a trend follower, and these AI releases are a bit embarrassing. Glad i don’t have an urge to update my phone anytime soon. Waiting for them to get rid of the eyesore named Dynamic Island. Edit: vehicle motion cues automatically turns on now. All of sudden it started working.

[@Crayonmuncher11]

I’m having the same issues on an iPhone 13 Pro Max and my battery likes to stay toasty. I think it might be time for me to upgrade and be set for another 3-4 years. I like using the AI on my Mac but have no need on my phone

My most favourite feature is the interoperability of calendar and reminders. The calendar app has much more clean “monthly” view and combined with displayed reminders, it is the most helpful change of iOS 18 by far

[@Samair92]

Hey, quick question, noticed you haven’t noticed this yet so worth asking: I’ve noticed a new toggle in location services and system services called “in app web browsing”. This wasn’t there before iOS 18.2 so wondering if you know what this privacy toggle does?

Running the final versions of 18.2 on my all Apple devices and wish I was still on IOS17. My HomePod mini frequently looses connection, the status of my devices in HomeKit takes ages to update. Never had these problems with iOS 17 or earlier. I’ve not added anything new to my devices in HomeKit and my HomePod mini has been in the same location for the past 2 years. I’ve reset my network connections and it didn’t help, next step is to wipe my Apple kit completely and start again .

[@Crayonmuncher11]

Check your router firmware too if you don’t have the one from your ISP. I had the network issues with my HomePod in iOS 17. They kinda got fixed in some release but iOS 18 has been a solid upgrade for all my devices

Aaron, i found a strange bug on my 15 Pro with 18.2, at night when my Sleep Focus becomes active, it changes my Lock Screen and Home Screen to one of the alternative screens in my display settings.

I literally hate the design choice for 17 pro if that is accurate. Apple is messing up the design including the entire iphone lineup by introducing iphone air.

[@erich1979]

Where did you get that wallpaper? I like that one.

[@Man-in-the-Moon]

Noticed the AirPods volume issues for a while. Typically the bug occurs when the volume lowers for Siri to read a notification but it doesn’t go back up after. I feel like it happens if I dismiss the notification with an “ok”. So I imagine a workaround would be to disable the reading of notifications. More likely to do this now anyway as the feature is more or less useless now that I have my messaging apps locked with Face ID and all siri says is “notification from messages”. Tells me Siri is just reading the Lock Screen and not accessing the app. If my phone is locked and my AirPods are connected there’s no reason not to read me the message if I’m the only that’s going to hear it.

[@stevenchristensen2660]

I find the new camera orientation on the upcoming 17 pro interesting because we were told that in order to have spacial video the cameras had to be in the vertical orientation. Is this not true? The horizontal looks better though. The pixel nailed that when they first did it.
