The Apple Music bug that resulted in high CPU and battery usage and the device heating up while streaming audio in the app still persists, and cellular reception remains shoddy and inconsistent for many users.

Users are also reporting problems with third-party apps, especially ones owned by Meta, on both iOS versions. Some issues have also been observed with Google apps like YouTube and Smart Lock.

The YouTuber also noticed a peculiar bug with the Mail app on iPadOS, where two of the emails in his inbox were displayed overlapping each other and were therefore not legible.
