It is expected that Apple will launch the iOS 16.2 update in December, the update is still in beta testing, and many features have been revealed in addition to general improvements to the system as a whole, and based on what came in this update, here are the most important upcoming features, get to know them.
The iOS 16.2 update contains a number of new features, such as the Whiteboard application, two lock screen widgets for sleep and medication, as well as improvements to the Always On Display so that you can hide the background and notifications on the iPhone 14 Pro screen, in addition to making improvements On the live activities feature, and more.
Freeform application
The app is a digital whiteboard that you can draw and write on, insert stickers, draw smartly adjusted boxes, and add shapes, images, videos, links, PDFs, and more. Others can interact with you on this smart board in real time through FaceTime or iMessage. The app is also available for iPad and Mac.
A sleep widget and another for medicines on the lock screen
The new sleep widget draws its work from data stored in the Health app and collected by the Apple Watch or other sleep-tracking devices. It provides information such as time spent sleeping as well as sleep quality, and it comes in three different formats.
One format limited to showing the amount of sleep time, another showing the quality of sleep, and a larger format showing sleep time with a visual representation. Clicking on the widget will open the Sleep section of the Health app.
As for the Medication widget, it comes in two forms, one of which displays one medication capsule, and the second lets you know when to take the medication, and you will be alerted to that, if you have registered all your medications.
Update the always-on display feature
We did not feel that the permanent display feature on the screen provided by Apple is real, so something is still visible until the background, in the iOS 16.2 update the lock screen will be completely black and therefore the background will disappear as well as notifications and only widgets, clocks and things that will always work will appear, similar to Android.
There are options to “Show background” and “Show notifications” through the settings under Display and brightness settings, then Always-on display, as shown in the pictures above.
Improvements to existing activities
Added support for current activities for sports scores via the Apple TV app. This feature allows iPhone users to view live scores for MLB, NBA, and Premier League games in real time on the lock screen and on the interactive island on iPhone 14 Pro models.
For example, if you are watching a match, the interactive island displays the results and updates live with the number of goals scored by each team. When long pressed on the interactive island, it expands to show the elapsed time and more description about the game. When you lock the iPhone, the result appears as a logo on the lock screen.
To test the feature with an iPhone on the beta version of iOS 16.2, open the TV app and tap the “Continue” button for a supported game.
Apple says the feature is available for NBA and Premier League games for users in the US and Canada, and for MLB games for users in the US, Canada, Australia, UK, Brazil, Mexico, Japan and South Korea.
Live activities will also be updated frequently when the "More frequent updates" option is enabled, allowing users to view more updated information, but Apple warns that this can drain the battery faster.
An example of an application to my prayer, it is the first prayer application that supports the current activities feature, but after the prayer time ends, Apple does not allow updating the current activities, and the user must enter the application to update them, and it seems that the 16.2 update will solve many problems regarding this feature, have you tried Current activities feature?
Redesigned home app
Apple says that the new structure of the application improves its performance, efficiency, and reliability to control smart home accessories, and this comes after the Home application obtained support for Matter accessories in the iOS 16.1 update.

There are some problems with 13promax
There is a problem that shows me a black screen, a video that does not work when browsing the application, as if it is an advertisement that does not work
The To My Prayer program is wonderful, and the latest update has many features. I think it is the best prayer program, thank you
When will the Elsalaty app support for the Apple Watch be available and added to the watch as part of the complications
In the previous update, the Wi-Fi disconnect was treated, and unfortunately it is still interrupted
I have a problem with the ios 16.1.1 update, where the connection is interrupted and the update does not complete and gives a message that there is a problem with the connection, knowing that the speed of my internet on Wi-Fi is very excellent and there was no interruption in connecting to the network while using the laptop, smart screen and other devices at home.
Did someone else encounter the problem, or is there a problem with my iPhone 11 Pro Max?
Creative and the benefits continue 😍
Well done
There are some problems with the current update iPhone XNUMX Pro
Peace be upon you ..
I hope to expedite the issuance of this update, because the current update 16.1.1 has some minor problems that I noticed, and the most important problem is (search).
It is known that if you want to search for something, you lower the screen and then the search box appears for you. This step makes the iPhone screen freeze (Freez), which is a really strange problem because it appears at different times and not constantly. The solution is to turn off the iPhone and restart it.
Yes it happened with the problem I had to update to 16 beta 2
You explained a lot of things on the 16.2 update, and I am currently on 16.2 beta 3, and I could not benefit from all that you mentioned. I tried to prove something, and I could not do everything that revolves around the lock screen, and it is a limited place and does not accommodate what you mentioned. Android devices, for a long time, the names of friends on the lock screen are only four, and only one and the others are proven only after paying the money, which is an exorbitant amount per week.
Go to Android, my brother, don't have to have an iPhone 😂 It's strange, I swear to God, you don't like the device and its price is $ 1000 Go buy Xiaomi Vivo Samsung Wow 😂
God help you, Knight
If I were in your place, I would sell the iPhone and buy XNUMX Android devices, and we would be happy with them 👌🏻, without heartburn with the iPhone.
