    Hi Hossam 🙋‍♂️, Sorry to hear that. Making sure to close apps running in the background and reducing screen brightness may help improve battery performance 🔋. Also, if you haven't already, it might be worth trying to reset your network settings. Always here to help! 😊📱

Why doesn't Apple merge the iOS 18.2.1 update with iOS 18.3 beta 2 so that those who updated to iOS 18.3 beta 1 do not lose out and do not get the fix update?

    Hi Fares Al-Janabi 🙋‍♂️, The question is really thought-provoking! Apple follows a specific approach in releasing updates, and usually releases fix updates such as iOS 18.2.1 to address emerging issues in major releases. While beta versions such as iOS 18.3 beta 2 are used to test new features and changes before they are officially released. So they are usually independent of patch updates. I hope this is a satisfactory answer, and thank you for your understanding 🍏😊

On the contrary, updates make us fly away bored, instead of switching from one application to another!

We hope to include the following bug fixes:

1. The diary app does not record the places you have visited previously and does not send a notification when you return home.

2. The hand washing app does not send a notification when arriving home.

3. The watch stops sending notifications after charging is complete.

    Hi Ahmed Al-Ghamdi 🙋‍♂️, Thanks for your comment! Okay, let's take these points in order:

    1. For the Diary app, you should make sure that location is enabled and that the app is allowed to access this information.

    2. In the Handwashing app, make sure that notifications are enabled in the app settings.

    3. Regarding the watch, this may be due to a glitch in the operating system, so don't worry, Apple is always ready to fix these issues in future updates.

    Always remember that a smile 😊 is the best way to get through a bug-filled day!

I have updated the device.
Apple did not mention what bugs were fixed, but Apple updates, as we are used to, are very important.

    Welcome to the world of iOS and technology! 🙋‍♂️📱
    You know very well that Apple always keeps the exact changes in its updates a mystery. But we all know that it is always trying to improve the performance of devices and fix problems. So, even if there are no specific details, an update is always important. 🛠️🍏

Actually, after updating to 18.2, the flash sometimes delays by about 5 seconds or less.
