Is anyone experiencing touch screen issues since 15.4? At first I thought it was the most recent buggy update of Pokemon Go, but just now I was not able to hang up a phone call. Started after I installed the RC.

Not much, negligible compared to earlier 15 releases.
 
Xs users having good experience with the 15.4 release? Thanks.
My XS works perfectly fine on this update. I'd say it's even a little smoother. And for now (it's quite soon to say) battery performance feels as expected on this phone, just like in iOS 15.3 if not better. Big shame we didn't get the Face ID unlock with mask on this phone.

I’ve had some weirdness on my iPad Pro (2018 11”) with phantom touches. I’ll be reading something, not touching the screen, and the iPad will behave as if I had selected a link.

it‘s not keeping the size of the thumbnails when i reopen the app. at least the size is kept when opening and closing the sidebar - which was not the case before. i just can‘t believe it takes them months to solve basic stuff like that.
Still blurry as well...don't know what the issue is there

Selecting 3x and the incorrect lens selection is still here. Maybe a bit worse.
At 1x uses 26mm/f1.5. Good indoor light. Switch to 3x and it digitslly zooms instead of selecting the 77m lens.
btw … notice the bed posts. In reality they are true vertical.

Yep. Another hit and run poster. Not even sure what their point in posting was other than to vent.
I had read on this thread s non specific comment that there had been problems with the photos app. I was just wondering what those problems might have been before I upgraded to iOS 15.4 as I have a project I have been working on that I fon’t want messed up. Has iOS 25.4 caused sny issues with Photos app❓

Nice to have look up finally working over here. ??

Siri still as frustrating as ever.

Apparently figs come from a citrus tree, got it right on the second photo. ?

Nailed the others, total train wreck on a food photo.

Any wide angle lens on a camera will distort perspective, how much depending on the angle you are photographing it at. You can minimize it somewhat by changing the shot angle.

The 3x is a slower f2.8 lens - with it there will be a tradeoff between higher iso and noise or lower iso and camera shake. It could also be there isn't enough light at maximum iso @ f2.8 to get a proper exposure. So Apple decided to use the faster 1x lens and digital zoom. I would rather have the control myself so use Halide, but even so I think the 3x is only useful in good light.

I’m having this weird thing: all three of my iOS devices wont speak selection anymore in safari. Where you highlight text and click speak. Nothing happens. It works in other apps but weirdly always asks if I want English first. my husbands safari does work but asks if he wants English. Ive tried all the turn it off and on again suggestions to no a avail.

I guess the latest version still hasn't fixed the bug regarding frequently visited pages in Safari? For some reason they don't display for me (iPhone 13 Pro, iPad Pro). Second bug, cosmetic, lack of number of available updates on App Store icon (iPhone only).

Apps like Lightroom (and presumably others) have settings to correct this distortion, which, as noted, is due to those pesky laws of physics. Although I am surprised that Apple hasn’t done more to correct that in-camera, which I suppose was the point!

I use Halide for my day to day use.
Still play with the Camera app every now and then.

Shot was taken near the foot of the bed (California King).

I did a search but didn't find this topic - Custom Calendar Notifications. I am receiving notifications for invitations received so I went into Calendar Notifications and noticed there was a Custom Notifications option. When I try to change the settings for Upcoming Events and Invitations the phone resprings - I see the little circle and then it goes to the lock screen. I can open the phone back up and I see the changes reverted back. I am on the the official 15.4.
Anyone seeing this issue?

What issues are you having with it? I haven't had anything major on my end. Occasional song skipping on apple music but that is about it. Of course, I have not personally used 3rd party apps over carplay yet.
