No kidding. They upgrade and while the phone is still "settling in" start using high end, memory intensive features, which may not be running optimally while the phone is still "settling in". That's why I have an Ignore button ... and use it.
My notifications are acting weird. I've a personal and work focus mode created, 24/7 there's an focus modes active and on both modes I've allowed Slack to push the notifications through. This works, but the notifications are showing up on my iPhone instead on my Watch while every other app I've allowed arrives on my Watch instead phone. Already tried to reinstall the specific apps, reset iPhone and Watch settings even tried a clean install. Which surprisingly doesn't work either. It's getting me crazy ?.
Already reported it through the feedback app a week ago but still no response on that

I did a restore, as well as a couple of others on here, and it sorted out the issue.
The pull down App Store update double animation is still there, it’s better but why does it double jump
Yep. Constructive criticism is perfectly fine — we all want Apple to do better (and sometimes they even listen!). But if the experience of using Apple hardware and software is really as miserable as some of these folks lead us to believe based on their posts here, they probably really are better off just cutting their losses and jumping over to Android and Windows. Seriously.
I really notice that on OTA updates, but IPSW literally download the file in 20mins, 10-15mins to instal, doesn’t hang on anything. Preparing iPhone takes a couple of mins, I think, haven’t really paid much attention because it’s so quick.
Using a MBP.
...and making these threads less unpleasant and/or toxic to read.
Yes your right.
IPSW is a cleaner way to install any iOS. It wipes the operating system and installs a fresh copy. OTA just replaces files and it’s not that great at cleaning up after itself.
I always update every iOS update via iTunes/Finder. It just feels way cleaner for me
Two bugs appear to be fixed for me:
CarPlay audio apps can be started/switched from CarPlay interface
App Update count now appears to be correct.

I'm not saying that OTA updates aren't doing something different with regards to how they clean up after an install or anything, but all you're doing with a local IPSW update is using a full copy of the OS as the source to update the same OS components that the OTA delta image
EDIT: I stand corrected — OTA updates are actually ZIP files!

Has anyone noticed that since iOS 15.0 the volume knob on the lockscreen doesn't work with airplay during playback? When I try to change the volume, it goes down 0 and the knob is unresponsive. I have to use buttons or click on a "volume bar" to have it I updated to 15.1 and the problem is still there. Tried on iPhone 11 on 15.1 iPhone 13 Pro on iOS 15.02. It's not happening on iPad mini 4 running iPadOS 15.1 beta. It's OK when I'm playing music, etc. on device...
I am not even in a state that was mentioned in the feature(Indiana) so I was glad to see the option in my provider's App. Apple added instructions for adding to Wallet on their site: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT212752
Same here, Illinois. It was available through the state and my provider (both via MyChart).
iTunes still doesn't show the update. Strange...
Each of us have our preferred way and I know that’s yours. But time wise it’s similar for me OTA. About 2 minutes to download, preparing and verifying under 10 and final installation about 5, maybe close to 10 on a big one. I haven’t done it any other way since OTA became a thing.
