iOS 15.3 ― Bug Fixes, Changes, and Improvements

[AndyBMac]

Did Watch or HomeOS builds change or was it just iOS and iPadOS?

My mini says it’s downloading 15.3 now.

Has anyone seen HomePod OS come via OTA yet today?

Yes.

Modem firmware on my 13 Pro Max is slightly lower than the RC.

No, it’s not. It’s version 1.41.06 on both, RC (19D49) and final (19D50).

Notice a UW icon for Verizon UltraWide Band next to the 5G icon on the top right of the screen with this update.

Well, good to know this dialog is still there on MacOS 11.2. Hope to be able to, you know, select something here very soon!

I don’t follow these threads much, but why would a bug fix and security patch release be 1 GB?

Surely there’s some other thing they’re not telling us?

It was a REALLY big bug? ?

So far, there has not been an official changelog released from Apple yet(which is rare). Hopefully they disclose this soon...

Go to settings on a Mac. Type in Universal Control in the settings search box. It won’t appear right away, but it will show up eventually. It’s not clickable though. Been there for months.

15.2.1 was also 1gb with no changelog on my 13P

Feels very good so far. Whatever they did with the animations and/or ProMotion - it seems more fluid and stable in motion while using. Not a groundbreaking difference but it feels more polished overall.
Storage bug seems to be resolved for me.

Not sure if this has been covered as I looked and couldn’t find it. When viewing PDF files on Safari, they are too choppy and lag in the scroll. Anyone else seeing this?

Yes

It’s under release, not beta tab.

Feels very good so far. Whatever they did with the animations and/or ProMotion - it seems more fluid and stable with the animations. Not a groundbreaking difference but it feels more polished overall.

Yeah feeling that.

Screen feels more responsive to touch.

Let us know if the calling icon from the Contact Info on Messages is still buggy, or it is consistently fixed. Thank you!

It’s a placebo it’s the exact same I have tested it side by side promotion and scrolling animations is identical

Installed ipsw on my 13 ProMax.

No obvious issues stand out on startup.

iPhone Storage is still broken Tells me I can save 1.95GB with iCloud Photos however I only have 1.73GB od photos on the phone. Says 41GB used ... chuckle. I have more than that in apps alone installed. Never mind Other and OS.

Will update as I check things out. 🤞
