Welcome to our weekend Apple Breakfast newspaper column , which includes all of the Apple news you missed this calendar week in a handy snack - sized roundup . We call it Apple Breakfast because we think it goes great with a dayspring cup of coffee or Camellia sinensis , but it ’s nerveless if you want to give it a read during lunch or dinner party 60 minutes too .

The pain and potential of an iOS update

applied science is a state of war between advancement and inactivity , and inertia does n’t give up easily . Most keyboards in the U.S. still use a layout designed for nineteenth - hundred typewriters because it ’s a pain to switch to something better ; the environmentally desirable adoption of electric vehicles is decelerate by the vested interests of freehanded oil . Show human race a groundbreaking technical school developing and they will get harassed about having to change their habits .

Apple ’s iOS updates are nearly always , on balance , an improvement on the premature version , but they present a similar struggle for acceptance . For sure , iOS 16 has a crowd of interesting raw features , as well as patching various bugs and tweaking the visuals of your iPhone ’s interface , but it ’s also different . Anything that ’s different has to be double as good as the thing you ’re used to , or why would you put yourself out ?

If we all watch over that logical system , of course , we ’d still be riding horse to process . But that does n’t mean early borrowing is always the upright approach . Macworld ’s recommendation , in fact , is not to instal iOS 16.0 yet , but towait until 16.1 . There will be fewer ( Modern ) bugs by that item , the waiter wo n’t be as busy , and some of the features are n’t uncommitted yet anyway .

But that good word may come too of late . If you ’ve already got Io 16 on your iPhone , and you ’re live the shock of the Modern , what ’s the best solution ?

Fortunately we have some tips . Some of Apple ’s less loveable fresh features and interface pinch are optional , and can be turned off if you recognize how ; others are a percipient melioration but are turned off by nonremittal . To avail sort all this out , we ’ve assembled 10 iOS 16 configurations youneed to change mightily now .

But our primary advice is to early adoptive parent and cautious adopters is to enjoy the experience . After all , whichever version of iOS you were using before was new once , and you maturate to care that . This meter next twelvemonth iOS 17 will seem unpleasantly unknown , and iOS 16 will be the comfort blanket you do n’t want to allow for behind .

Long - condition progress depends on short - term discomfort . And we wo n’t get our jetpacks until we can put the horses out to pasturage .
