    iPhone 8/Plus Older iPhone safety

    Hello everybody, I have acquired an old iPhone 5s and iPhone 8 from my grandmother. The 5s surprisingly has decent battery life and I have put a new battery in the 8. My question is about the safety of them. The 5s is stuck on 12.5.7. The 8 is stuck on 16.7.10. Would it be okay to watch YouTube...

    Resolved Is iOS 16 still supported?

    Once again, we have to wonder if the iOS version we use is still supported or not. As iOS 17.1.2 has been released today and I got a persistent notification for it on my iPhone SE 2 with iOS 16.7.2, one might guess that iOS 16 will no longer be updated for the devices that support iOS 17.

    iPhone 14 Pro Getting back to iOS 16 from iOS 17 on iPhone 14 Pro

    My iPhone updated to iOS 17 and the battery started draining terribly fast. I tried formatting it and restoring it from a backup from before the update to 17 to get back to iOS 16, but unfortunately to no success. Is there any way to get back to the previous system?

    Hello, everyone! Can anyone share their experience on having iOS 16+ installed on iPhone 8 Plus? And, maybe, with its old battery on board? How does your iPhone function? In theory, it should work fine, cause iPhone 8 Plus is intended to support this iOS version. But I’m concerned about...

    Curious if anyone else has intelligenceplatformd or ospredictiond appearing in their analytics logs?

    Curious to see if anyone else has them. Specifically, they are cpu_resource logs for the both of them. Best I can tell, intelligenceplatformd started appearing right after either 16.5 or 16.4, any only when charging, so I think it's a daemon that is only ran when the phone isn't on battery...

    Bluetooth Device Type

    I'm struggling to find any decent information about this online. What does setting a device type actually do, or what is it supposed to do? The little tip on the screenshot below the options isn't helpful. I use Bluetooth for audio streaming to my car stereo.

    I'm getting blue boxes around buttons in certain apps and I'm not sure why. None of my settings have changed. iPhone 13 running iOS 16.4.1. The boxes seem like an iOS thing, rather than the app. I was thinking something to do with accessibility, but changing the settings makes no difference...

    Screen time and iOS 16? Havoc anyone? Always allowed list keeps resetting to defaults

    Hi all, It used to be that screen time would "just work", even across different iOS versions, i.e. when one device (iPad) was on 15.4 and another (iPhone) was on 15.3, it would just work or at least all settings would be preserved. Since iOS 16, my life as a father has become burdened by...

Moreover, if I go onto activity, underneath it states wallpaper, which is never has before. My wallpaper is the same one it's always been, so I don't...
