I still have the update processing in the background prompt on my 13 Pro Max after a week, which is a bit odd.
Mail background overnight activity has been crazy as well, even though I have everything on manual for whatever reason. hm

Can anyone assist with this thread? Not sure if it's an iOS 18 or Facebook bug.
since doing a fresh install of iOS 18.2 my photo widget shows no photos available and i have over 6,000
anyone else come across this issue/ know of a fix or is it a bug with 18.2?

Current bugs for me:
1) The UI is a little sluggish on older devices but battery life is better than ios17.
2) Whatsapp just froze out of nowhere had to close it and reopen it.
3) The Gmail badge doesn't update when trying to create new screens, only the first time did work.
4) and the worst of them all, this: https://forums.macrumors.com/thread...extremely-hot-when-using-netflix-app.2445792/

After updating an iPhone SE 3 from 17.7.2 to 18.2 I can't say it's an upgrade that I'd do for my other devices yet:
1) after the update I noticed touchid didn't work on the login screen anymore, but did work in apps;
2) the login screen even failed on some of the pickups;
3) looking in the 'Available space on the iPhone' settings panel it just keeped loading, not showing anything.
Thought a complete shutdown and power-on cyclus might fix 1-3, the next bug occurred: switching off the phone just kept a (black) screen (light on), and reboot followed. Logfiles indicate a (4) kernel panic occurred. After a good reboot following that one, I noticed 1-3 started working correctly again, but for instance (5) Safari already crashed one time today.
I'll sit it out until 18.4.2 or so for the other devices, to buggy at this moment
. Hopefully Apple keeps pushing updates to 17.7 until 18 is more stable.
Might not be a bad idea if a complete list of all noticeable bugs became available, so Apple can fix them.

iCloud tabs have stopped synchronizing since iOS 18.2 and macOS 15.2.
iPhone does not show even one iCloud Tab from the macOS running 15.2. Neither does the macOS show iPhone iCloud tabs. However, the macOS shows iCloud tabs from iPad running 18.3 beta.
Is it just me, or something wrong with my configuration.

Have seen no sign of iCloud tabs since 18.0. Others have reported as well but no fix, other than a work around of creating a new profile in Safari and making it your default. According to some that restores the syncing. I’ve chosen not to do that at this time. If you restart a device or force quit Safari on the device that is not displaying the tabs, they will then appear after the restart or force quit, but only that once.
After updating my iPhone SE 3 to iOS 18.2, my iPhone started freezing intermittently and Touch ID malfunctioned. Shutting down and rebooting usually cleared it. (Cleaning the sensor and my hands as suggested didn't help) Hopefully Apple will fix this bug with iOS 18.3.
