4 Reasons You Shouldn't Update Your iPhone to iOS 16 Yet - CNET

You've got lock screen customization (with widgets), the ability to unsend and edit text messages, improved privacy and security features and so much more. .

And that should be enough to get you to update to the latest iPhone OS from Apple, but there are always one or two reasons to hit the pause button for just a bit and stick with the OS you're currently running. .

There really isn't a single general reason why battery drain occurs right after a major software update like iOS 16, but it happens to some people pretty much every year. .

Even if you wait for future iOS 16 updates, you may still encounter some battery drain for the first few days, but that generally disappears once your iPhone gets settled with the software update. .

It's why Apple sometimes releases a "point update" shortly after a major update, to fix issues like:.

You have two minutes to recall a text message and 15 minutes to edit an already sent text message, but if you're on iOS 15, the feature won't work as expected, which might be a good thing for you if you're not a fan of unsent and edited messages?

And not every iPhone running iOS 16 will get all the new features, like the battery percentage icon in the status bar or real-time captions for videos and FaceTime calls. .

Unfortunately, older iPhone models, like the iPhone X, iPhone 8 and iPhone XR, will not receive every single new feature that's available in iOS 16.

Apple has already released a developer version of iOS 16.1, which adds support for the battery percentage feature to the iPhone XR, iPhone 11, iPhone 12 Mini and iPhone 13 Mini
