Yes loads of posts here about it. It doesn’t work. Please report it, or have you done so already?
Works fine for me...

Your screenshot shows "Location Based Alerts" off, not on. If that's on, and you have the location arrow enabled for system services, you'll see a geofencing arrow (the hollow one) pretty much all the time as it's monitoring where you are for any location-based reminders and shortcuts.

That should be Location Alerts > Show Map in Location Alerts that is on.
Thx for the catch.

I have a Watch and see that GPS arrow. It’s definitely the weather app.
Yep. I have 4 weather apps, the native Apple one, Weatherbug, WeatherMate, and MyRadar all which are set to Always. Combined with the other apps and system services my arrow never goes off but it does cycle between hollow (geo fence) and solid very frequently. I see which systems are using location and it’s all normal. Between my 3 device and my wife’s XS and iPad Pro the behavior is identical with no issues.

I don't have Location Activated for any iOS Services and it's just activated for Google Maps and Waze. I don't use "Find my Phone" and also no other app is allowed to use GPS. If I switch from Airplane to Data Mode, the GPS Arrow appears, as well as I enable Wifi. The GPS Arrow appears randomly, whatever I'm doing on my phone.

I assume it is a bug, because the GPS Arrow appears and disappears every 30-45 Seconds. No app is showing that GPS has been used and the System GPS Services are turned off. This doesn't happen on my iPhone 8Plus using iOS 13.1.3, but it happens on my Iphone 11 Pro.
On my 11 Pro Max, really on all my devices, my arrow never goes off. It just cycles between hollow and solid. I’ve checked which systems have accessed Location services and it’s all normal. Going from Air Plane mode back to normal will always trigger your cellular service to use it to look for cell towers. So that arrow will always appear then no matter what you don’t have enabled. One of the requirements of having an active phone. And there may be some other system functions that require it as well. And when I used 3rd party GPS apps such as Navigon, Motion X, Waze, they always use location services, otherwise they would be of no use to you. All that is normal. I haven’t seen anything in this thread that sounds abnormal. But again your use will be different from mine. I have almost every system and app enabled except for a few that have no business knowing where I am. Between my 4 weather apps and my news apps that I want to get local information from, and the others, my arrow is permanent.

I’ve come across a hang. If you get an email notification and select the notification to bring up the email message mail the mail app HANGS. Every time for me. I’m using outlook.com and exchange. Anyone else notice this? I’ve reported it to Apple.

Please add the random disappearance of all mail notifications from the notification centre (mostly happens after some period of inactivity ).
 
Today I wrote an email from my iPhone, then tapped on the "send" icon. The message disappeared. Nobody received anything, it was not in my sent folder, or in the trash, or in the Drafts, or in the outbox folder.
It just vanished...
I cannot reproduce the problem, everything seems to work fine now, and it never happened before.

A bit concerning when thinking about the state of the Apple Mail app in iOS13.

Meh...
 
Yea, at least on 13.1.3 it definitely usually contained outdated recents; hopefully 13.2 will improve it. Another thing: I never get Siri suggestions anymore...hoping this release will fix that as well.

Yep! I have people in that shortcut who I have not text in over 2 months.

iOS 13: still not ready for the public.

iOS 13.3 will probably be an equivalent to a newer beta of iOS 13.0. Until the mail app is fixed, every iOS 13 update will not feel complete.

Yep me too. What’s your feedback ID? I will report it and reference yours.
 
here it is. FB7406820

Done. Mine is FB7407747.

I think we can rest assured knowing that Apple will not fix this problem, and introduce yet another cluster **** into this abortion of an app. It’s beyond my comprehension how incompetent these people are. I could **** better code than what they are producing at the moment.

Well after a couple days (which is not long enough to be a "great" measurement in my opinion) battery drain during active use seems to be marginally improved. I'm only seeing about 15-20% battery drop during my work day (approx 8-9 hours of light use checking socials, texts, email, some safari browsing..), and then an additional 20-25% during my evenings (approx 4-5 hours, moderate use, more frequent checks of text and email, browsing social rather than checking it, somewhat more browsing on safari and maybe some youtube). So after a full day of use I'm typically seeing up to 45% battery consumed. Definitely decent, though with the same usage on iOS 13.1.1 I would typically only consume about 35% maybe as much as 40% (rarely).

Overnight standby drain is still an issue. I'll see anywhere from 5-10% drain overnight, never had an iPhone do this before and is something I've only been accustomed to experience on Android. ios 13.1.1 would have zero to little overnight standby drain, most I ever noticed was 2%. So it seems, in my opinion, that every release since 13.1.1 has been a regression it terms of battery. Half tempted to restore my phone and setup as new when the 13.2 public release comes out.. Just my $0.02
 
On 13.2 iPhone has a hard time connecting to network after losing service. It’ll show full bars but you can’t make calls or load anything. Have to toggle airplane mode on then off. Was perfect in 13.1.
