I thought the app switcher thing with an app occasionally being shown twice had already been resolved? If not then it certainly seems to be resolved in iOS 16.1 which I expect will be released either the week of October 24 or during the first week of November, OK, so it could also be the week

Barbara, I understand the idea behind thinking being able to replace a battery would be desirable. However, with these modern Lithium batteries and the availability of external power banks there really is little or maybe I should say no reason why this would be of interest to people. You could

It isn't a big deal not to have a home button. I also have an iPhone 8 as well as an iPhone 13 pro max. There are some bugs with the app switcher in IOS 16. That is why you are seeing apps twice. It is very annoying. I think the notification stuff is different in IOS 16. On 10/14/22, Katrina

That means that either the App Store has a current and temporary issue or you are for some reason not connected to the internet. The first thing of course would be to reboot your iPhone, now that you use iOS 16 you can simply tell Siri "Reboot my phone" or reboot my device. Siri will ask if you

If your battery health/capacity is really at 30% and you plan to use this phone in any meaningful way without it being permanently plugged in you should simply spend the $49 and get a new battery put in. Nobody can tell you whether it will work for 1 hour, 30 minutes or 2 hours as that would
