@gwhizkids has anyone said anything about it in the battery thread saying a set up is going on in your background of your phone. Just got the message after I charged my phone, can this effect or harm my phone or is it a useless message?
Got a tip for us?

Update on my 16pro is 427.8mb for me and only says "iOS18." coming from RC/public.
yeah its just an updated iOS 18 with a different build number then
post the build number when your done to compare
so it looks like its updating to the RC/public from the preinstalled version on the 16's. going to 22A3354 (public release) from 22A3351 (preinstalled).
sorry I meant the message is just displaying under my battery tab in my phone... is this a bug or something new with Ios 18?
For those wanting to to know builds on 16s
This is out of the box iOS 18.0 (22A3351)
This is with the update for today iOS 18.0 (22A3354)
Shucks, @gwhizkids beat me. 🤣

This kinda sucks because nobody else is getting this message. I am now not sure if something is wrong with my phone or if it is a rare bug.
Right. That’s why they’re pushing it out now. Because the phone shipped with the older version.
seems the closet to that a build was beta 8 (22A5350a) that Apple revised and went with. (August 28)
That’s probably correct. So they must have some way to bulk zap the phones with firmware after manufacture, since I’m sure many had already been built by then. Or we simply see beta builds several weeks after they are more or less finalized internally.

So the version installed out of the box is more like beta 8, and the update is the RC? I had terrible battery life on the RC on my 14PM, so really not wanting that.
How to Improve iPhone Battery Life: iOS 18 Tips and Tricks
Updating to iOS 18 brings a host of new features and improvements to your iPhone, but it can also impact your device's battery life. To ensure your iPhone
I’m really eager to see the first bug-fix update to iOS 18 just to jump all-in into the new operating systems this year. I love how the bigger icons look without the names, and the new Control Center.
Do you think it will be this week? Or the next one?

Week after next is usually the case unless a big bug is found.
Using offline maps doesn’t eliminate the need for gps, just less data. And you might lose live traffic if it’s designed to be completely offline.
They say to manually update the apps but again turn on automatic updates. How that’s supposed to conserve battery is a mystery to me.
It’s just another clickbait article and nothing specific to iOS 18 either. Wouldn’t be surprised if they said using the iPhone consumes battery so turn it off when not using to conserve battery.
Some of the pointers don’t make sense at all.
Its well know that 5G uses more energy then 4G/LTE, and particular wifi. Not agreeing with everything like you the article suggests, but like similar articles it has some legit pointers that one can examine and see it if helps with battery life. 🙂
For me the always on screen outside in sunny areas where tap or swipe to wake can easily keep a iPhone screen that been on bright warm in your pocket, instead of being off. Toggle off “Show Wallpaper" with the always on clock is a good suggestion, really don't need the whole screen bright with that when it not being used.

The fact that the SDK notes size decreased is great. With the 18.1 beta 3 notes shows an extensive amount fixed, some outstanding, beta 4 notes shows a lot less documentation. Still 18.1 is like a dust devil it just appears when it does then things get moving once more.
I think so. I’d say the release of the public beta seals it.
